The deck 3 volume fader is the only piece that does not appear to play softly and do what it supposed to do from the controller. It ways at a 50% value and you have to use the keyboard in order to drag the volume down to 0. Is there anything I can do to fix it such that it operates based on what the controller is doing? Would copying and replacing the MIDI file help?

If it behaves like that with the "factory default" mapping, then its probably a hardware fault. Please contact Gemini Support to get further assistance.

Curious, why would you think hardware issue over software? The physical volume fader moves fine. Within the software, that one deck is limited to a volume of 50-100%.

Because every native mapping gets thoroughly tested prior release and if the fader works fine until 50%, I think DJ Dad suspects the fader to stop sending midi messages at this point. So it is a hardware issue.
You can test it and make sure the fader stops sending messages. Use this tool

Start it up with your controller connected, choose your controller from the dropdown and move your fader and and down. If at some point it stops displaying midi notes, your fader is the issue.

And what makes you think it's the software over the hardware ?
The fact that you can move the volume fader doesn't mean the fader is necessarily working as it should.
Have you ever seen a "hardware" mixer's audio channels wearing out and start failing (audio bleeding, audio stutters, audio cuts, even distortion) ? You can still move the fader fine!
To answer your question: If ALL 4 faders were having the same behavior then someone would suspect the software first (a missconfiguration, a faulty mapper change, e.t.c.) However, since it's only one of the faders that missbehaves then 99.999% it's the fader itself which has the issue
