Another Tip..
About the Touch Strip Sliders.. you can map them as FX sliders, or Songpos, or anything you like.
Dont try to assign using the KeyLearn, you will get another Midi. Chose from the DropDown List the TOUCHSLIDER and assign.
song_pos
or
effect slider 1
or..anything else.

New VMS4 Mapper+Definition File
http://www.virtualdj.com/addons/12221/American_Audio_VMS4_Pro_Full.html
This will probably make me create skin ver 3.0
Soon...

Please register your VMS4 LE VirtualdJ in your profile.
You can also upgrade to Pro Version in order to be able to download all the skins, plugins etc from the web site.

Hi DJDAD
I love the VMS4 2.1 skin.
It seems the skin doesn't have focus (highlighted color) on the waveform when selecting a default deck.
For example: Deck1 is on play while Deck2 is on CUE, Deck2 waveform color should be more brighter than the Deck1.
Or did I miss something.

You re right. I will fix this in next update. I will wait until 7.1 (whenever it comes) in case something changes in the new rhtyhmzone or else i will go back to old display way which helps viewing especially in overlapping

Hi DJdad,
Love the VMS4 2.1 skin, very good job specially with your mapper.
Now we can use all the power of the VMS4.
I have a request: Would it be possible to make the skin in 1920x1080 resolution.
Just ordered a new monitor and that is his native resolution, it would be great to have a VMS skin with the correct size.
Many thanks.

I'm afraid i am not allowed to upload a 4th resolution. You can use the Skin Resizer Tool.
In case the results are not acceptable (bugs, graphics, etc) you can send me by email the Skin Resizer Tool Results, and i make sure you get 100% working skin + HD bmp file.
I hope that helps.

Ok Thanks, I will use the resizer tool and check the results (Will be next week as the new monitor is arriving next Tuesday)
I'll contact you in case of problems.

Proart, thanks for uploading the VMS4 skin in 1920x1080 resolution. works great. Ofcourse thanks also to DJDad who took the initiative for the initial creation.
I'm trying to make some changes on it and realize now how much effort it takes to build this.

I am about to update the skin soon.
So appart from the rhythm is there anything else that need to be fixed or changed?
After this update i am about to build a VMS4 minimal skin with no mixer, no fake commands, and the less necessery buttons. I thnk that after a while, VMS4 users need only the informations and not all the buttons on the screen. This of course will give more space for browser.

Thanks so much DJDad!
One really minor thing that's not that important but I may as well say. In the video mixing panel, some other skins show the video on the left of the crossfade and the right of the crossfade below, next to, or otherwise near where it shows the main resultant video feed, with the size smaller or much smaller than the main video.
In your skin, you make it efficiently easy to see the video on each of the 4 decks. But if you're using for the left the video for deck 3 & deck 3 is mostly hidden because it's showing deck 1, then you don't actually see in the video mixer what video is playing on the left of the crossfader.
Obviously, the big problem in doing this is space, for some of the skins that do show the left & right video feeds have less going on and so it's easier to put there. But maybe you can quickly think of whether there is a place on the video mixer panel to put small feeds of what's on the left & right of the video crossfade.
Thanks so much for all your fantastic & very useful work on this!

There are 2 ways to view the video decks.
1st way, this one (center video panel) you may view just the master or all the deck+master.
2nd way is to view video deck instead of jogwheels using those small panels.
So yes you cant see deck 3 video with this way, but you dont mix with deck3. If you mix with deck 3 then by swapping the decks you will be able to view the video on the top deck.
So the only thing that i might change is the order of the video decks on the 1st way. That means that it would be more easy to understand the deck order if video deck 1 and video deck 3 were in the corect position when someone swaps the decks.
Example
deck 1 as left then video deck 1 should be on the top left corner as it is now. Ok
deck 3 as left then the video deck 3 should be on the top left corner this time. (To be fixed ?)
This is doable.

Oops! Sorry. Thanks. Yes, I had been using the 2nd option, but hadn't seen option 1 till you now showed it. Sorry to bug you about it! :)

Another thing that i think that should be fixed is the Effects parametrs.
Since the SHIFT button doesnt send midi signals then VDJ cannot tell if you move parametr 1 or 2, so i think something like this
to view both parametrs without pressing any skin buttons.

Hey again DJDad!
Thanks so much again!
I am trying to do the following, but it seems there are aspects of the skin that are preventing me, & I'm wondering if you can change those:
I want to load a bunch of looping videography videos on additional decks that I'm not using for music, and then switch between them at various points frequently during my set, because different videos fit different points of songs in ways that are common across songs, so the same videography can be used in corresponding parts of many songs.
Eg, I'll have video A playing on deck 5 (a video 20 seconds long that I want to keep repeating), video B playing on deck 6 (30 seconds long & constantly repeating), video C playing on deck 7 (again, looping), video D playing on deck 8 (also repeating), & video E playing on deck 9 (also repeating). One video might be good for breakdowns (say A), another for buildups (say B), another for climaxes (say C), another good for outros (say D), etc. Then, when a breakdown comes, I can issue a command to put video deck 5 on the left video deck & when an outro is about to start I can issue a command to put video deck 8 on the right video deck. (As it's repeating, I know it'll be playing, & I don't care where in the video it starts appearing on the screen.)
However,
1. if I go to another skin, load a video on deck 6 of another skin, and then switch back to this skin, what’s going on on deck 6 gets canceled.
(& 2. From within the skin, I can’t load things onto additional, unseen decks. I have to switch to another skin to do so.)
Is there a way you can set up the skin so that even if it’s not showing additional decks, it allows videos (or other things) to run on additional decks so that a command can be issued to bring such a video onto a side of the video crossfader?
Thanks so much again!!

Solution1.
You can use clipbank. No sound from videos but you can view them in master ouput.
Solution2.
Open the xml file, at the first line you will notice... decks="4", make that 12 or whatever number you wish. Save and rezip.
Then create some keyboard shortcuts for decks 5,6,....12 like deck 6 play, or deck 12 pause.
You will not be able to view those decks but they will be there for you, in case you need them.
