Virtual DJ Not Receiving Timecode Signal in Config

[roshanbhoj]

Yeah sure farhan. I just followed all the vids on YouTube and the guides on the setup. I honestly don't know what it could be. I'll post the pic though in a minute.

Here is the pic of how it's setup in VDJ.


I couldn't find the program that lets you configure the VMS4. I'm pretty sure it's only for ASIO4ALL and Mac runs CoreAudio.

vms:

- Update drivers from the AA web page (current ASIO drivers 1.07 PC only)
http://www.adjaudio.com/pdffiles/asio-driver.zip

- Update firmware from the AA web page (current version 3.11)

That doesn't look right.

Set the VMS4 to 4out mode
Connect the turntables to channels 2 & 3
Set chans 2 & 3 to USB on the VMS4
Deck outs in VDJ should be deck 1 - 1 & 2, deck 2 - 3 & 4
Timecode 1 - input 1 & 2, timecode 2 - input 3 & 4

(see the link I posted earlier)

Hmm why would I set 2 & 3 if those are the ones the turntables are on? Why not analog? Everything else is the same as my settings, right?

Because that's what it says to do in the VDJ VMS4 setup guide

I think it's a limitation of the VMS4 as Farhanashraf rightly pointed out that you can control upto 99 decks in VDJ normally but in that guide with the VMS4 in 4x4 mode it says you can only control 2 VDJ decks.
You can still use the other 2 channels on the VMS4 for external inputs tho if you wanted.

I'm not sure as it doesn't say specifically in the guide but I think you might need the output set to external mixer.

Problem resolved guys! Everything is working great now! The Chat Support over at Virtual DJ was really helpful! I'm glad their support lives up to their reputation, if not surpasses it!

[farhanashraf]

^ what was the fix!

[roshanbhoj]

Um well he went into advanced config, and Mac settings and changed some settings that I have never seen before. He also fixed up the timecode signal settings so the signal is amazing and I don't think I'll have any problems with it cutting out. It's very responsive. I haven't got to use it action other than testing the audio and testing the timecodes.

^ nice! u should pay attention to what items did he fix, cuz that might come handy later on
