Topic: Vci 400

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

when I switch my 8pads from hot cues to sampler, both sides switch, how can I have it that each side works independent. Sorry..I have a vci400 and vdj 8. I'm talking about the 8 performance pads above the jogs (where they're supposed to be), and I'm using the shift button above them to toggle between cue and sampler.

do you use the default mapper ?
 
yeah with some customizing
 
Both SHIFT buttons of the VCI-400 send the same MIDI note at the same channel, so your assigned action will apply on both sides.
You will need to use a different button for your mode changes.
 
So what's this with the slicer

Help Please.
I'm using vci400 dj advanced 1.1 mapping
 
Cioce or Loco dog wanna help me edit this mapper it's perfect except, I want mode3 on the performance pads to handle the sampler., and in mode2 I want the loop on top 4 and loop roll on bottom 4. So that's
Mode1..cues
mode2..loops/loop roll
Mode3..sampler
mode4..slicer
I have other and I will use mappings Loco dog helped me with before...
but other than the problem in the video and these personal changes this mapping is hot...
 
Sorry my phone is double posting

Bump
 
Ok I figured with some research this mapping cases the malfunction, but don't understand script so well, so can I get some advice with creating my on mapping..ok I'm using mode buttons to create 4 modes - cue, loop/looproll,sampler,slicer.
Is there someone that can help me write this code for the 8 performance pads.
 

These is where im at, 4 modes cue, loop/loop roll, sampler, slicer. But delete cue not working, loop in-out not working, LED's not working. Sampler and Slicer are working but not the led's. where am I going wrong?
 
Help me please, I think I'm making it worse
 
In order to help you, you need to let us know what you're trying to achieve...

First of all:
Mode1=set 'mode' 0
Is that for hot_cues ?

Then you have
Mode3=set 'mode' 3 & loop 8
If mode 3 is slicer, why do you activate a loop when you swich to it ?

Finally the correct syntax for your pads should be:
PAD1=var_equal 'mode' 1 ? loop_in : var_equal 'mode' 2 ? sampler 1 play_stutter : var_equal 'mode' 3 ? slicer 1 : var_equal 'mode' 0 ? var '$shift' ? delete_cue 1 : hot_cue 1 : nothing

And for the leds it should be:
LED_PAD1=var_equal 'mode' 1 ? loop_in : var_equal 'mode' 2 ? sampler_pad 1 : var_equal 'mode' 3 ? slicer 1 : var_equal 'mode' 0 ? hot_cue 1 : off
 
Freeze/slicer, it's a traktor thing I come to like. The whole thread explains what I'm trying to achieve...

Thanks...but the delete cue doesn't delete the cue. but ever thing else is great. I'm also trying to map the encoders above the pads. left on to adjust step and right one to adjust length of the slicer. If I get stuck I'll post it...
 
Synthetic can you help me please....
 
Guess my life lines have been used up
 
Thousand reads no help....
