Okays we all seen the hints of the new VMS4 and that it will be launched at NNAM so the question is to American Audio

Have you cured the problems from the original VMS4 ie the mic problems (still waiting for my fix in the post ) the low voltage out puts causing distortion on low power rigs no cure offered just swept under the carpet (the mobile DJ this was aimed at) if so is this why version 2 is coming out and more to the point what are you going to do for the poor version 1 owners that are suffering with the problems i have a controller sat here that was trouble from the word go and i wont gig it because of heck its a door stop including the VDJ software being missing from the box 3 days to fix after a row with the vendor and AA a fader clicking and is not usable and a couple of the eq knobs wobbling more than a drunk after asking about it ith AA eu by email i was told there was nothing wrong so a few months after release you supersead it wiht a new controller with all the problems fixed realy not good for your reputation if you dont look after the previous VMS4 owners problems and we will have to loose alot of money selling our now devalued VMS4 mk1 to buy a new VMS4mk2 just to be able to use it live ????

I have two of these units now , and I do not have a problem with them . For the mic solution you can hook up a line matching transformer to it . It's a bit of a inconvience , but you half to hook your mic in anyways to the mic port . As for the low voltage thing I'm not experiencing this at all , can you explain this to me ? I have talked to American DJ i'm not sure if there feading me a line or not , but they say they are not coming out with a new unit.
New unit is being announced at NAMM on the 13th tomorow you can win one in there whats in a name competition seen here with BSR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuvPKb2UKgc now let them tell you there isnt a new unit ???

as for the low voltage i think maybe its just some of us experiencing it im running a 1.4k mobile rig and you have to crank the mixer to get the output up to get any volume thus causing distortion my pos beringer mixer was cleaner and had more go in it than this running my rig more than happily
as i said because of the corporate work and high end weddings i do i cant gig this controller unless run through another mixer to boost levels and give me a better mic input wich defeats the idea of the VMS4 carrying and setting up less gear iv sent for the fix and still months later not got it so all my VMS4 is a pritty ornament in my studio at home i cant return it as the vendor has washed his hands of any responsibility so im stuck with this Frowner just looking down the supplie of goods act to see if trading standards will deal with the vendor for me unless AA come good to us all with the old VMS4
i think we (the owners of the vms4 v1) should wait for an official answer from AA. this product is updated to a new edition after only six months or so. it means that the company has located and admitted all the faults of the unit and tries to stand among the competitors (dn-mc 6000, s4, Numark NS6 and Pioneer DDJ-T1) by correcting them and raising the overall quality of the unit!
but all of us who bought the vms4 shouldn't be ignored by AA.
we DESERVE an update to the new edition and we should claim this right!!!
thanks
It seems the 'VMS4 Traktor', as suggested on the djtechtools website has the "same hardware as the original VMS4". you can read that on this website if you scroll down a bit to 'VMS4 for Traktor'

What's sad is that users have to dig down such information themselves with little or no input from American Audio.
