Topic: Begringer CMD LC-1 & DC-1 Defintion & Mapping File Issues

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

A.eXe 1PRO InfinityMember since 2011
I've created definition and mapping files in the past but these have me stumped. Both devices (CMD LC-1 & CMD DC-1) are natively supported in VDJ but I would like to create a definition file to have better control over the LEDS (on all the time by default) and knobs (geared towards 4 deck control, I use 2). The DC-1 definition file starts.....
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<device name="CMDDC1" author="ME" type="MIDI" description="DC-1 V8" version="800">

The mapping file starts................
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mapper device="CMDDC1" author="ME" description="DC-1 V8" version="800" date="03/05/215">

It shows up in the controller mapping but uses the native mapping instead. I added "force-" in front of the definition file name. If I set "DisableBuiltInDefintions" to yes only one of the two devices show up but it doesn't perform the key learn function. It doesn't have a sysexid and if I create a midi log report in advanced settings it doesn't give a vid/pid for these devices. If I use miditrace or VDJ Controll Definer they both give different values for the buttons and knobs (I tried both). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Without vid/pid or sysex, or even a drivername, unfortunately they will not be properly detected.
For CMD LC-1 it should be vid="0x1397" pid="0x00C0"
and for CMD CD-1 it should be .. vid="0x1397" pid="0x00C4"

Ok, now for the LC-1 device definition file it starts............
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<device name="CMDLC1" author="ME" type="MIDI" analogmixer="no" padColumns="4" padRows="8" padSides="1" vid="0x1397" pid="0x00C0" description="LC-1 V8" version="800" drivername="CMD LC-1" drivernameout="CMD LC-1">

and for the the mapper file it starts.................
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mapper device="CMDLC1" author="ME" description="LC-1 V8" version="800" date="2015-03-06">

Still the same issue.

Can you post here the Log Report.txt ?

If only one of them is connected at a time, does it work ?

Now they show up in the mapper section like they should but none of the buttons or knobs are recognized. I doesn't matter if one or both are connected. So I'm thinking that there has to be something wrong with the structure of the definition file. Here is the definition file for the DC-1 before adding definitions for the LEDs.......

Seems that both units get detected properly, but not sure if your files are used.
Please send me the definition and mapping files to take a look (PM me the links)

Btw, are you sure that the units are in the correct MIDI channel ?
E.g. for the CD-1, the default definition forces channel="5" by sending.. <init sendsysex="F07F000305F7" />
so in your case (since you have set channel="6" in your definition, you should use <init sendsysex="F07F000306F7" />

<init sendsysex="F07F000307F7" /> (chanel 7) is used for the LC-1
