Hi , i have been using VDJ for a while , and very pleased with it, when i try to use the Dac 3 controller it doesn't work. I have checked the box in the remote control section and it lights up green, the Dac lights up and mimics all the buttons on the programe ie. when the players are started the play button on the controller light up as well etc. but have no function, any help appreciated.

The mapper does not require the PCDJ MIDI driver to work.
The DAC-3 is a USB Human Interface Device (HID) and requires no drivers. VirtualDJ has built-in native support for the DAC-3. The PCDJ MIDI driver is only required if you wish to use the DAC-3 with other MIDI compatible software that does not have native support for the DAC-3. Native support is required for the LED's and LCD displays to work, along with increased pitch slider precision.
If the displays are working, but the DAC-3 will not respond to button presses, try the following:

If the displays are working, but the DAC-3 will not respond to button presses, try the following:
- Try a different USB cable.
- Try connecting it to a different USB port.
- Try connecting it to a powered USB hub, if you have one (This shouldn't normally be required.)
- Check the USB port on the DAC-3 for any damage.
- If you have only just purchased the DAC-3 (I.e: Brand new out of the box), you may have a faulty unit.
