[SOLVED] DDJ Ergo K not working well with Traktor Pro 2. Why?

I've recently just bought DDJ Ergo K and I've upgraded it from Traktor LE 2 to Traktor Pro 2. But after I activate my Traktor Pro 2 and I start it, I can't seems to be using the Hot Cues buttons on the DDJ Ergo K, same goes to the Sampler Buttons. There are still other dials and buttons that is not working well. I've tried researching online and totally get no answers, I've also tried to update the firmware of the DDJ Ergo K which is 1.20 and also I am holding the latest version of Traktor Pro 2 which is the v2.5.1. According the the Setup Wizard, I've also out DDJ Ergo LE and everything in the settings was set correctly as I followed the manual, can you all please tell me what is wrong? If not I really feels that I spent a bomb on the Ergo and totally have wasted it. I've tried with Serato DJ Intro and everything works fine.

@Agent-Kol > Are all your drivers etc up to date? Have you tried manually mapping the player to the software?

I have Firmware V 1.2 and downloaded all the drivers from NI for Traktor. Using my new Macbook Pro.

How do I manually map the player to the software ?

For future refence maybe just also put a download for the Traktor setting file tsi in the DDJ ERGO K download folder on the pioneer website also and include in the manual. Cheers

I just got the Pioneer DDJ ERGO-K Limited Edition, however, V-DJ is not working at all. Not even Serato Inro. It says 'hardware disconnected'. It's only working on Traktor, however, I have the same problem with the Samplers and Hot Cues, I can't use them. What can I do? How can I use it with V-DJ? I just bought the latest VDJ online and I updated my firmware to the latest, and still not working.. What can I do??? I'm using Mac?

@Giannis > Ok, maybe something is getting lost in translation here but what problems are you actually having?

There shouldn't be any problem running Windows 7 64-bit.

@giannis > Does the controller actually light up when you connect it with the power cable and the USB cable? If it doesn't power up, have you tried swapping the cables? Has it ever worked for you? When did you buy the unit?

Have you updated all firmware and drivers? http://pioneerdj.com/support/product.php?lang=en&p=DDJ-ERGO-K&t=151

Once connected, do you then open up Traktor and run the setup wizard? The MIDI mapping file for Traktor is available at the above link.

Hello!

So, I've bought new DDJ-Ergo-K and I have put everything to work on the Traktor Scratch Pro and it works perfectly fine, there is just one slight problem. When I try to pitch the track up, the pitch fader doesn't respond. It's like dead, I have to first pitch down over the 0 point and back up so it works. Even the ctrl light in the traktor program (left of the hour) isn't blinking, until I cross the zero point, so I guess it is some kind of a driver problem?

I have upgraded firmware to 1.20 and the software driver to 1.1, so I would be very grateful if you could help me with that issue.

Thank you

Žiga

It works perfectly, just that small issue is what is bothering me. Could be a small bug in drivers.

No, we didn't came to an understanding :) On the link you gave me I can find three links, one to the NI page and two .pdf files, I can't find the mapping file on that link.

I got the same problem like Ziga! When i mix up some tracks using the sync function then stopping one track and put off the sync buttons the pitch fader doesn`t respond! I have to go down with the pitch fader und the zero point and then up again to get a use from it again, its like dead before i do this! It´s a really bad problem for such an expensive toy! Pioneer help me out please it´s like hell if it happens in the club while making music for the masses! :-(
