@Racmusic > Well, just what is it you want it to do?

If I want to map the S1 to Ableton, I simply open the program, check that my S1 is enabled as a controller within the settings, press Command-M (to enable MIDI learning mode), click on what I want to control with the hardware, then press, move, slide, etc. the button, jog, slider, etc. I want to use on the S1 as that control and presto.

What's so hard about that?  Why is it you think Pioneer's keeping this a secret?

I have tried to map the ddjs1 to VDJ,,,well this isn't working out well at all. Why vdj, because of the video mix capability,which itch does not support,, i seem to run into a door every time. VDJ won't distinguish between the different platters, just for example. I'm trying this with the mapping file from vdj forum.. It would appear that this unit will work with ableton by what you say,,but thats not a program i need to run.

As for the ddjs1 & itch,,they work flawlessly. Never been so easy. I know of no-one in this region that is using ableton for Dj usage..

THIS IS OUTSIDE your support,,but,,, If you know of another program that i can utilze, beat mixing, video mixing, & karaoke could you please pass it along.

Sorry to come across a little harsh,,but getting frustrated...

Vdj is a mofo to map. I sat for hours trying to get my t1 mapped and decided to wait till vdj support figured it out. Leds, scratching, and so on. Vdj staff has their hands. The controllers have a bunch of functions and finding a common ground to map the features to the functions is what is holding them up. If you are registered vdj user they have simple maps already.....

Rumor has it that Itch2.0 (due out later this year) will support the VideoSL plugin...

As for the difficulty in mapping VDJ, yes, it is a pain, but it's also quite powerful.  Information is on their site on how to do it efficiently.

Please some people say ITCH is the best  software controller but  this is not all

anyway is it hard to make the mapper for free just for ddj customer ? 

Plaese help me  I hate ITCH I am good Virtual DJ user ,I need Mapper

I have a lot of problem in my ITCH , and the costumer services didn't help me yet

I can't make auto loop , remix , cuz no auto BPM ...

ITCH is not comfortable

Hum,

What problems do you have with itch software ?

Perhaps you can fix them easily with some help...

Steve,,,is it a problem with the actual software,itch,,or is it just getting yust of a new program..?

Software issue can likely be resolved,,,the mind,, is another thing..:)

This is a link to sendspace,,,  http://www.sendspace.com/file/1k5v7a     This will let you d/l the latest mapping aval for the s1 to Vdj. It's really rough but gives you some function control..As they say,,feel free to improve on it..lol

I started using the computer, strickly, for Djing back in /99.,,up till a month ago....I started with mixmeister,,simple,easy,and stable. About a 1 1/2 yrs ago i started getting more into the video presentation along with the music. Using clubdjprovj program. Very nice features,etc,,but no beat mixing on either side,music or vids,,,all though beautiful transitions,etc..

Well, time to get the old school feel back with the new teck ease. DDJS1 did this nicely,,,but now i'm stuck with no video,,as yet..

The S1, I was able to get into right off,,the first day on it,,,"sweet"..Got that feel of real mixing back into hands on control.

As the previous post mentioned they "might" be incorperating the video into itch later in the year,,we'll see.. Would be a great move and their part if they did.

The way i've over come the S1 and video is i'm running the clubdjprovj program & itch at the same time. Acually works quite well.

 The way i've done this is to use the firewire connection through a "firebox" back into the aux on the S1. Then use the soundcard on the laptop to moni and setup the vids in provj program. The only thing is i have to open the provj program before opening itch, otherwise itch will take over the firewire connection..:(   All in all it will work out..

Hope the mapping file is some help, if you don't have it already....enough babbling for me..

.Cheers

Skip from line 5 to the end,,,,i tend to get on a roll sometimes....:)

Hello,

Is it possible to map the S1 with Traktor 2?

If yes is it difficult?

Yes, and Yes. (See Jog Wheels)

For anyone reading this thread -- the S1 is fully supported within VirtualDJ; just select it from the devices list under the Mappers within the settings and you're good to go.

Dear Pioneer Team

I have a big problem with Mapping the DDJ T1 with Virtual DJ Pro 7.

I Have the Map XML file but i cannot control it from my DDJ T1 ... 

Do you have any Solution for this Bug ?

Regards

why would you want to map a ddj t1 to virtual dj when traktor as just as simple to use and offers more creativity in the mixing. if anything why dont you upgrade to traktor pro 2 or 2.5? 

@WalD > Pioneer doesn't officially support the T1 with VDJ; you'll have to contact their forums for support or details.

vdj has an 80% map with working led's.  you have to be a premium member to access the download

That's the DDJ-T1; the DDJ-S1 is fully supported and simply requires a renaming of the device (Mac) for it to work.

@pulse : do you know the name that i need to put in order to make it work (Mac) ?

@ stacy may be he wants to VIDEO MIX or DJ VJ...

too bad tractor does not suport video....

can any1 help with vdj mapping to ddj s1? ... my mac wont let me rename the audio device name and i add a pluggin as it says "current licenses do not allow you to download Controllers"

any1 any suggestions .... i also am not a fan of itch
