Vestax VCI-100 DJ Midi Controller
MAIN FEATURES

The VCI-100 is a highly professional MIDI controller that has two jog wheels built with sensor and control technology straight from our turntables. One of the many additional features found on the VCI-100 is a curve generator that controls the crossfader curve giving the DJ true professional mixer features on this MIDI controller, even if the software being used doesn't allow for curve control. The VCI-100 is built with the highest quality mechanical parts and state of the art PCB technology guaranteeing accurate and stable operation.

FEATURES

> 90 parameters of various software are assignable to the VCI-100's control section via USB transmitted MIDI signals.
> The JOG wheel is constructed with a high-resolution pulse sensor; touch sensor and acrylic platter mechanism. With this combination, operations such as pitch bending, scanning and scratching can be performed with speed and accuracy.
> Every crossfader motion of the VCI-100 is digitally converted and sent to the software. Curve settings are generated with the built-in CPU, which allows you to adjust the crossfader curve to your preference whether or not the software you use has curve control.
> The DATA SEND LED and JOG wheel SENSOR LED provides clear visual of the current status to assist in an authentic play mode in real time.
> Operates both with USB bus-power and an exclusive power adaptor. (For best performance and stable operation, please use the power adaptor if the computer's power capacity is low or if using a USB hub)
> There are no issues if you don't have software to operate. TRAKTOR LE (Native Instrument Inc.) is bundled to the VCI-100 with exclusive control assignment files.
> The VCI-100 provides simple plug & play working with Apple and Windows operating system computers.
> Compatible with all software that allows MIDI control assignment. Samples of MIDI control assignment files for each software will be available at www.vestax.com.

Support info 10/MAY/07

Symptoms:
VCI-100 identified by the computer as USB device
but not identified by TRAKTOR and TRAKTOR 3.2.

Outline
Reports say that the VCI-100 was identified with TRAKTOR after un-installing drivers and software sold under the trademark of Logitech WEB camera (QuickCam , Qcam).

A system file titled "lvubsta.sys" is created inside the driver file folder of USB audio device when the subject software and drivers are installed. It seems that this file blocks the USB MIDI controllers from being identified by the software.

This system file cannot be deleted or un-installed singularly, and the system may possibly become unstable if done so. DO NOT perform this procedure.

If you wish to un-install the software and drivers at your own risk, we recommend un-installing it from the "Add or Remove program" tool.


[Support information 15/JAN/07]

We have 4 reports of the VCI-100 not being identified by TRAKTOR 3 and TRAKTOR LE when in use of NEC VALUE STAR, SONY VAIO or computers with YAMAHA AC-XG Audio device. The OS does identify the VCI-100.

[Activation Software Support]
Support for activation the bundle software is available at Native Instrument Inc.'s website.(English only)
