So switch back to the old mapper until Chris gets it figured out.

have you tried the physical crossfader reverse switch on the mixdeck? that is the first thing I would have tried...

next is mapping

param_invert & crossfader

next is

crossfader & param_invert & video_crossfader

then

video_crossfader & param_invert & crossfader

if you only want the video crossfader to work use fake_crossfader instead, you should also make sure your video crossfader is unlinked with the padlock on the video mixer pannel of the default skin, or mapping a key with video_crossfader_link off

Good luck


Yes i have tried the physical switch, and the rest you have posted means nothing to me ?? [Tumble weed lol]...

All i know is that with the old mapping it woked fine and now with this new one it does not ?



You are right! I tried all those except the mapping and they don't work. Besides, physically reversing Mixdeck's CF will make skin CF work opposite.
 
Ok, the issue is a conflict of the Numark HARDWARE control of both CF curve and mode.

So, updated files removing them from VirtualDJ's control - http://www.virtualdj.com/addons/14802/MixDeck_QUAD.html

Btw, the 'visual' crossfader on VirtualDJ will flip opposite if you flip to reverse on the CF mode.

Also, the VirtualDJ internal crossfader curve is forced to 'Disabled' by the ONINIT since the unit uses its own curve settings.

Hope that fixes your issues.

Thank you CSTOLL for taking care of this matter. I am confident that you have a solution for all concerned. As far as the Algoriddim DJay software being assigned to mixdeck quad's channels 2&3 maybe, you could also give me an answer to it next time....


I can not give you and answer to that question, because I don't deal with Algoriddim software. You need to ask Numark or Algoriddim those questions.

Kind of a bold statement for someone asking help, don't ya think????


Any how ... I have given you guys an update. Enjoy and Happy Mixing!!!

I am sorry! but when you spend a lot of money on a product and 'Numark' do not have these things in place before hand [No dig at you CSTOLL] it is very frustrating ...

Things like this should be sorted out before the product is released - do you guys get the hardware sent to you before release ? if not, then maybe Numark should do this... I have also contacted Numark directly about this and all they say is that they are working with you guys at VDJ.

I do appreciate all that you do and love the VDJ software and the Numark kit.

Ref last post - what do i do with the xml. file ? is it not an exe. file ? how do i fix the cross-fader problem as this is not my area of expertise.

Thank you

Glenn

p.s. the 'Malarky' comment was meant as a light hearted joke, sorry if it came across different.

Sorry, fixed the download. Both files are there now and you should be downloading an installer file to run.


As for the hardware and releases - Yes, we receive hardware from the manufactures. Typically this is based on their production plan of what they are going to distribute with the controller. Even if they do not plan to distribute VirtualDJ, we typically will get a unit ahead of time. Unfortunately that was not the case with this particular controller.

You're the man!! Thanks for the fix. It seems to be working fine. I have to use it for awhile then give you more feedback. What is the hardware equivalent of SYNC on the skin?

I hope you don't get tired of my questions. I am just excited to get it working!

merci beaucoup pour le full Mapper !!!! avec la section mixer MIDI !!!! trop fort !!!!!!!!!!!

Sur le prochain mapper penser vous etre capable de faire suivre la préécoute .... pour quelle change automatiquement sur le mixer comme dans virtual dj 7 pro ....

thank !
Merci !!

This unit does not have a 'SYNC' button. You can remap something else that you don't think you will use very often.

No, the PFL can not be automatic on the hardware. It does not allow for that action at the hardware level.

i install asio 4 all driver .... for more latence option .....

thank !!
 
Hey Chris thanks for the updates!! I'm still having issues with video mixing! I don't use a crossfader to mix and my videos still show when the faders are down and when I record my mixing i hear all the cueing before the mix. Is this a setting i'm missing or something? p.s i've already checked the fade to black under video and i'm still having the same issue. Thanks in advance.

You need to change the mapping for the volume faders to use - volume - as the action. Fake_Volume does not use the fade-to-black functionality.

For recording, you will have to use the Advance Config sound configuration. You might be able to set the Record Loopback to Input 1&2 - but you might have to use an RCA jumper from the RCA outs of Booth to the Inputs 1&2. I have not tried this and knee deep right now in a couple other projects. You might get to trying it before I do.
 
How come when this unit was first released, it came out with full 4 deck VDJ software according to this video?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL1tTgcVPwk
That means you must have got a sample unit ages ago?!

I'm confused, you only made it support 2 decks but then you say you can do 4 decks??

I just want 4 deck MIDI controller like it is advertised to be with the option of using the other sources if I need to.
 
Hi Chris, can you please send me the mail ****@***** mapping Numark Mixdeck Quad?

Thank you

First, that Video was done a year ago, by Numark and without any input from VirtualDJ. They didn't even release the unit until just a couple months ago. And on top of that, they decided not to release it with VirtualDJ LE and therefore did not include us in the development process.

So, what does that leave us with. It leaves us with a hardware unit that only has 2 audio channels on the sound card - hence, 1 out for left side and 1 out for right side. If we would have been involved from the beginning - I would have insisted that they re-tract and market the VirtualDJ support correctly OR improve the hardware to support the before mentioned marketing.

As to 'making it 4 decks' - you could still make it 4 decks in 'control' but not in 4 decks of dedicated audio output. Basically, Decks 1 and 3 would output to USB1 and Decks 2 & 4 would output to USB2. It is not the ideal and requires the DJ to be very attentive to what they are doing - but it can be done.

Well considering you don't get an LE when buying this controller and you don't have a PRO license, then your options are still open to purchasing a product that truly supports 4 decks of mixing. There are plenty of options on the market.

No. And Licensed PRO users can download it from the link provided earlier.
 
I have the original VirtualDJ (with Omnitronic TMC-2), but the serial number can not be used! VirtualDJ is second hand. What should I do??

I have been following the Mixdeck Quad for over a year now so I know a bit about what is going on but I am no expert with software.
In that video they mention VDJ and had samples on display so I presumed VDJ had worked on it already......

I already have purchased a Mixdeck Quad and it's on the way to me, I am waiting to purchase my VDJ licence once it gets here and I know it is going to suit me.....

I don't want to be able to play 4 channels at once out the output to speakers, I simply want software that shows the 4 decks on the screen and allows me to load 4 songs into them but I only need 2 songs to come out the actual output at one time

Can I monitor the other 2 songs through the headphones and then be able to load them into the two 'output' decks so they can play?

Does this make sense?! It this what you mean by the above statement?

Sorry, but presumptions are a bad thing. And, they may have had VirtualDJ on display with other controllers. But, even as stated in that video; it was a 'first look' at the MixDeck Quad. Which BTW, ships BLACK and not the SILVER as they show in the video - hope you are not expecting a silver look.

Understand what you are asking, and Yes kinda - you could do what you are asking.

Can you run a 4 deck skin which would give you 4 playing surfaces - Yes.
Will the mapper support the control of the 4 decks - No, but can be modified to support 4.
Can you pre-listen to the additional decks - Kinda. You would not be able to pre-listen to the deck opposite of the currently playing out deck.
-- Why ^^^ ?? - Because there are only 2 outputs available for software routing. And these outputs are setup in an 'External Mixer' configuration.


Hope that better explains it; if you are able to follow it.
