AeroDynamic Juggle Routine and Tutorial
Here is a new routine that combines several different elements on the VCI-100 into one complete remix of 2 tracks. Watch the video for a full demo and then detailed break down of the methods. Download both of the mps’s used in the video with the cue points ready to go later in the post.

epic – love it, thanks ean

Ean, that is legendary. Truly inspirational. A thousand thanks.
I reckon we need an annual DMC style competition for software and controllers. (Someone shout now if one exists already and I’ve been missing something vital here). Would be brilliant to see how creative people can be in pushing the technology as far as it can go. What do you think? Would be happy to help organise the NZ heats :-)
All finest to you and the DJTT team, always

Nice. Good work on the vid. Like both sound & the controller mod.
November 4th, 2009 at 5:19 am Quote
Those yellow faders are like a fat chick. Probably good to play with, but I wouldn’t want to be seen playing with them…
Great routine, Ean!

Ean you are my hero

Ean midiman so to hold!)

Great work, love these vids as they help me explore my VCI-100Se even more and inspire to a lot of new thing I can do with it. Not only am I trying to learn your routines, but I come up with great new ideas myself!

Lmao!
Big Respect Ean!
November 4th, 2009 at 8:56 am Quote
Wow. Cool ish. Good work.

How can you NOT love this site!
November 4th, 2009 at 9:29 am Quote
Ean, you’re a midigod! :)
November 4th, 2009 at 9:36 am Quote
great juggle routine!
his knobs/faders and button color mirror the midi fighter shirt! that’s what so cool about it.
November 4th, 2009 at 10:34 am Quote
This is so great Ean. Thanks!
November 4th, 2009 at 11:27 am Quote
awesome. keep doing that stuff. some day i will leave dvs-vinyl and go over to midi only when i get more of this stuff to see!
November 4th, 2009 at 11:28 am Quote
can you try to post videostuff like this with serato and midi controllers?
November 4th, 2009 at 11:49 am Quote
Nicely done hombre
November 4th, 2009 at 12:08 pm Quote
That video just sold a modded VCI.
November 4th, 2009 at 2:47 pm Quote
Would anyone know how to mimic Ean’s sample (length width fader)/stutter effect on an m-audio xponent? Perhaps using torq? Besides that bit I think I have it!
Awesome!
November 4th, 2009 at 4:22 pm Quote
Great vid. Been attempting to perform the routine with slight success :p
So much to do in quick succession. I’m thinking its harder without arcade buttons.
November 4th, 2009 at 4:37 pm Quote
Awesome!
Where are you from in NZ DaveQ?
November 4th, 2009 at 6:13 pm Quote
fucking sick, well done ean. plllaaannnneeetttt rrroooccckkk
November 4th, 2009 at 7:27 pm Quote
I would love to be seen playing with a fat chick ;) You rock Ean!
November 4th, 2009 at 8:10 pm Quote
Sick routine ean :D love to see more of these!!
November 4th, 2009 at 9:12 pm Quote
pretty wicked. we need more stuff like this and the past few blog entries!
and I second the notion that we need a dmc style event for controllerism. who cares about watching people try to be the next qbert and do their quadruple click flare orbits or whatever, this stuff is actually interesting.
November 4th, 2009 at 9:47 pm Quote
As all have said, big up Ean, you are like the Rob Swift of MIDI. I realized that my issues with the VCI are that I have not even tapped its potential. And maybe I need arcade buttons ;).
November 5th, 2009 at 12:07 am Quote
This is far out! I have a question about these performance modes that always messes me up when I try to do stuff like this. After I play with fader mode and juggle mode, the feedback to the VCI seems confused — the headphone lights no longer function properly (their lights on/off state has no correspondence with what’s actually going on with the headphones, though the buttons still work), juggle mode light stays on, sometimes the FX lights seem confused, etc. Is there a way to “reset” these lights and things when you come out of the mode?
November 5th, 2009 at 8:02 am Quote
show off.
November 5th, 2009 at 8:16 am Quote
Ean you are a legend!! Another Daft Punk sample though?
Love all your vids just thought this one lacked a bit.
Still the best midi soldier.

Hey now thats dope.. Way to give inspiration…..and the explanations allow a creative duplication with other songs/samples
November 5th, 2009 at 1:15 pm Quote
Here is my response!

Ean is the master! Thank You for the inspiration!
Great Tutorial!

This vid sold another Modded VCI. I’m jazzed to get it. All black (stealth).
November 5th, 2009 at 3:59 pm Quote
How do I change my LED buttons from Blue to Green?
November 5th, 2009 at 4:50 pm Quote
thanx again!
November 5th, 2009 at 5:05 pm Quote
Killer!
Your timing was perfect for this article.
I downloaded the NI Scratch Library and there is a Mario Bros track.
I have been juggling with that…practicing my timing on the VCI.
Will be jamming this tomorrow and pissing off the neighbours.
:)

im wondering whats the rotary sensitivity and accelaration values for the jogwheel volume fader and pitch fader
November 8th, 2009 at 1:40 pm Quote
Really nice. Definitely my favorite post in a while! Great job!
November 8th, 2009 at 3:11 pm Quote
Very cool tut…!
I can’t wait to get my own Vestax controller and begin practicing.
Best regards to all the team!

I’m running the VCI-100SE 2_4 (TPro 1-1.2) map with my VCI-100 but I can’t seem to get the volume faders to work when I turn on faders effect mode with chained effects. The wheel and pitch fader work perfect fine. Any suggestions?
November 14th, 2009 at 9:19 am Quote
Great stuff! Inspires me to be more adventurous with Traktor Pro + VCI 100 SE and try out completely new things.
This is a perfect example of what makes DJTT the best DJ community site – where skills and tips are openly shared (instead of closely guarded).
Keep these types of videos and articles coming!
(Note: also loved the white noise video)

Nice routine!
Anyone know how to get those cues back if you delete them by accident for aerodynamic? Thnx!
November 25th, 2009 at 2:06 pm Quote
Hi Ean, Great tutorial. I have just upgraded firmware to 1.3 and have loaded 100se tsi 2.4 running on traktor 1.1.2. I am having issues with the jog wheel and Pitch fader not changing their controls over to FX with the EQ FX. Please Help.. Due I need traktor 1.2?? Regards Bartok

IGNORE MY LAST COMMENT! Should have read and watched the tutorial properly. Supastylin!
Word Ean, U rock.
