Yup, you can use AKAI Pro LPD8 as a controller for VDJ (once you buy the Pro license). Mapping means that you tell the software which action each button, slider, knob etc. of the controller should do when you press it.

Yeah, you can use multiple controllers at the same time. Just make sure each controller is configured to use a different MIDI-channel.

Any suggestion on how you do that, please?
I'm trying to combine LPD8 to control effects, using Hercules mp3 e2 console at the same time. How do i engage two mappers simultaneously and is it possible at all?

I'm not sure what you mean exactly by "engaging mappers", but like I said before, it doesn't matter how many MIDI (or HID, for that matter) devices you have connected, as long as they are configured to use different MIDI-channels, so the input signals don't interfere.

You will need to upgrade to the full VirtualDJ Professional to be able to use other MIDI controllers in addition to your Hercules MK4 and to be able to download and use custom mappings. Your Hercules MK4 DJ Console Edition is limited software and supports the DJ Console MK4 only.
You can upgrade at a discount by going to http://www.virtualdj.com/buy/index.html
NOTE: Premium Membership does not give you access to mappers or any other add-on downloads. It gives you access to stream over 8 million songs from Grooveshark in VirtualDJ: http://www.virtualdj.com/products/membership.html
