@teknikalcrysis - i'll leave djdad working on your issue! ;)

@DRETpr0670

More than happy to try and help but WHY would you even consider going live with a Pre-release piece of software without testing???

Do you have any mappers in /My Document/Virtual DJ/ Mappers?

Not expecting a big turnout tonight, it's the perfect place to test. No, there are no mappers in the folder, I deleted them earlier.

Also, I am using a Mac (10.9). The RMX works fine as a sound card, but does not see it as a controller.

Try this first - before we look further.

I had a similar issue during testing. Turned out my install didn't finish. Try uninstalling and re-installing VDJ. See if that helps.

Tried that too. It's even completed an automatic update.

It is indeed confirmed that some controllers have a MIDI detection issue on Mac side. Dev Team will take a look very soon and an update will be available Thanks for reporting.

well I have solved the problem by selecting MIDIYOKE:1 as I do within Ableton, which forced me to re-map the entire controler button by button for VDJ 8 ...
now that I have got that headache out of the way; I hit a snag

my up, down, left, right arrow button are programmed as follows
Quote :
<map value="0-ENCODER42" action="browser_scroll -1 & deck 1 wheel_mode 'browser' while_pressed & deck 2 wheel_mode 'browser' while_pressed" />
<map value="0-ENCODER43" action="browser_scroll +1 & deck 1 wheel_mode 'browser' while_pressed & deck 2 wheel_mode 'browser' while_pressed" />
<map value="0-ENCODER44" action="browser_folder & deck 1 wheel_mode 'browser' while_pressed & deck 2 wheel_mode 'browser' while_pressed" />
<map value="0-ENCODER45" action="browser_window "songs" & deck 1 wheel_mode 'browser' while_pressed & deck 2 wheel_mode 'browser' while_pressed" />


jogwheel programmed as follows:
Quote :
<map value="0-JOG47" action="deck 1 var $passtek ? deck 1 effect &quot;pass_texzk_old&quot; slider 1 : var $d1effect ? action_deck 1 ? deck 1 effect default slider 1 : deck 1 effect default slider 2 : var $d2effect ? action_deck 2 ? deck 2 effect default slider 2 : deck 2 effect default slider 1 : jog_wheel" />
<map value="0-JOG48" action="deck 2 var $passtek ? deck 1 effect &quot;pass_texzk_old&quot; slider 1 : var $d1effect ? action_deck 1 ? deck 1 effect default slider 1 : deck 1 effect default slider 2 : var $d2effect ? action_deck 2 ? deck 2 effect default slider 2 : deck 2 effect default slider 1 : jog_wheel" />


in VDJ 7 if I held those buttons I could use the jog wheel to scroll through songs/folders
the command works in VDJ 8, however the arrow buttons results in a toggle rather than only using the jogwheel for scroll function only while_pressed
so i press/release down the jog wheel scrolls songs/folders, press again jog wheel functions as jog wheel... i only want it to scroll songs/folders when I have the directional keys held down...
is the "while_pressed" function not an option in VDJ 8?

something else i noticed - I decided to try and add in the following
Quote :
<map value="LED_PLAY" action="loaded ? play ? on : cue ? blink 700ms : blink : off" />
<map value="LED_SYNC" action="beatlock ? on : off" />
<map value="LED_PITCH_RESET" action="pitch_reset ? on : pitchlock ? blink : off" />


restarted VDJ 8 and none of the LED's light up (they were before I started tinkering)
so then i tried deleting the lines I added...and still no LED function :(

everything seems to to be working properly except my special little addins i had scripted in VDJ 7; like the while_pressed functions and the LED functions
what do i need to edit as far as those 2 things go?

Hey guys, I copied the .xml. Is this gonna be fine for my Hrecules RMX2?
 
Posté Mon 12 May 14 @ 12:27 pm
narrowing down even further....without using MIDI-OX....VDJ 8 and my map .xml work as scripted... but i believe when I implement my workaround and use the map i had to remake; MIDI-OX doesnt recognize the fact that I have the button held down...it just sees that I pressed it...which would be why it seems that the while_pressed script command doesn't work... (it's working, VDJ 8 just isnt being sent a command saying the button is held down rather than just pressed) ....so I'm back to square one, completely out of luck when trying to output my audio from VDJ in ableton and use the RMX as a MIDI controller in both programs simultaneously :(

Why is VDJ 8 taking exclusive control over the MIDI side of the board? whats different in the way that is connects to the MIDI RMX with VDJ 7 vs VDJ 8?

cause as I mention before...in VDJ 7 i could first load MIDI-OX and then VDJ and ableton and it work exactly the way I programmed it to... but since VDJ 8 is snatching complete MIDI control, if I load MIDI-OX first then VDJ8 cant connect to the RMX...if i load VDJ8 first then MIDI-OX cant connect to the RMX....

this is getting frustrating lol
