I typically ask very few questions this would just save a lot of high hopes crashing down if the answer is something like Ableton can only rewire 1 other application.

this is truly amazing – thank you SOOOO much.

however, here’s a little cry of help:

i have tried to understand the 1.7 mapping via the various scattered pieces of info – youtube videos, overlay jpgs, forum posts, etc. – and by examining the midi settings in traktor itself.

i have figured out the loop section and the eq section including headphone controls. however, neither the fx section (especially in fader fx mode) nor the exact functionality of the song select area is understandable for me. in juggle mode i understand the play buttons turn into cue access buttons – but what do the jogwheels do? and what are the sample buttons next to the filter knobs for?

if anyone could write a tutorial/getting started sheet for these sections or point me to any existing such info i would REALLY grateful!

thank you so much ean for being the most generous person on the planet
and thanks to all the users for making this community the best dj place in cyberspace :-)

[...] Traktor Pro+ VCI TSI [...]

[...] Hot Topics Traktor Pro+ VCI TSI [...]

So just curious if anyone else is having the problems i have. I checked the back and there is a green sticker noting that i have FW 1.2 (Correct?) Installed Traktor Pro and the TSI files and the jog wheels will not work, nor will the loop shorten feature, which i have to say i was super excited about. Anyone have any answers? also , midi in and out for VCI is active. Thanks!

I have this issue, it wont let me select my effects setting when importing my TSI file either, any ideas??

Ok, I was investigating this question myself in parallel to this request. There is a difference, but I do not think it matters for when using just the VCI-100. The timecode support is only enabled in Traktor Pro if you have a serial number that comes out of a Traktor Scratch Pro license. So yes, the software package is the same, but the functionality isnt. Then again since the VCI-100 does not leverage the timecode (since the scratch pads are digital by nature), it should not be relevant for VCI-100 users (unless they of course also want to use timecoded vinyl/cds).

BTW: is there any reason to get Traktor Scratch Pro for the VCI-100 in terms of software? Or in other words is there any difference in the software bundled with Trakor Scratch Pro compared to just the software you get when buying Traktor Pro?

no difference at all- they are the same software
