[SOLVED] DDJ-ERGO Virtual DJ Pro mapping needed
Hi there, yesterday received my DDJ-ERGO controller to replace my Hercules RMX controller. As I 'm already using Virtual DJ Pro 7 for quite some time I only installed the DDJ-ERGO driver software and expected to select the DDJ-ERGO mapper in the VDJ settings.......unfortunetely not. No DDJ-ERGO controller listed. Then I installed Virtual DJ LE in a seperate folder and started Virtual DJ LE. The DDJ-ERGO skin is set by default and the controller is automatically recognized and works well. No problems. Now the problem is that I want to use Virtual DJ Pro with the DDJ-ERGO but can't find the mapping (xml) file anywhere. I have seen many similar postings about this problem in other forums without a good resolution. @Pioneer: can you please provide the Virtual DJ mapping for the DDJ-ERGO in this forum. At the same page where you can download the Traktor mappings and software updates. Regards, Jan

@Jan > Those files are not available direct, but if you already have 7.0.5b (or newer) installed, you may simply need to re-download and re-install it to gain full support for the hardware.
Thanks, it worked and the DDJ-ERGO is now controlling VDJ Pro
You actually have to own the latest version of Virtual DJ, not have the keygen/patched version of Virtual DJ which won't work properly.
On the Torrent downloaded patched version of Virtual DJ the Jog-Wheel functions are reversed and the CD-Mode function does not engage both on the controller and within the Virtual DJ options panel(CD-Mode Jpeg), so your always in stuck in Vinyl-mode regardless of what you do. If you're fluent at VDJ script the Jog Wheel issue and CD-modes functionality can easily be mapped to function properly, though it would be easier just to buy a licensed Virtual DJ.
Once you've purchased the latest Virtual DJ, you just update it for access to the latest mappings allowing the DDJ-Ergo to work perfectly on Virtual DJ.
The CDJ-Mode function is actually a plugin by TexZX that enables the CDJ function to work the same as Pioneer CDJ's. I'd modified my CDJ functionality to work using a dial so as to emulate the CDJ Nexus decks Beat Grid when adjusting the Cue using CD Modes stuttering Cue.

So you just buy Virtual DJ then update it for all patches and plugins, also the Mappings are all perfect too.
