1. Go to Traktor preferences.
2. A window will come up. On the left side of this window, there are a ton of different options. Click "controller manager".
3. You should click "import" and chose the .tsi file that you use for your VMS4 mapping.
4. Then in the upper right hand corner of the window, there are two pull down menus. One says input, and the other says output. Make sure both are set to "VMS4".

You should be good.

I don't understand because in my own computer , the in-port and out-port is on " n/a " but my vms4 works well !

also i'm pretty sure there are newer drivers etc. on the vms website.


I've already install the driver and the firmware !

Update Traktor Pro to last version (like 1.2.7).
Load TSI file checking ALL options in window options.
Check all options on SOUND CARD tab.
Well since my vms4 doesnt work with the VDJ i got with the controller i tried Traktor pro 1.2.3. aswell.
I did the settings after a youtube video (adj asio soundcard, controller settings-here tsi import). The traktor recognizes the mapping,for example if i use the jog it scratches, and the song starts and stops (but i cant hear them, i only see it on my screen that they are moving) so it recognizes the vms, but no sound is coming out. If i go back to preferences and controller settings i see that instead my vms4 mapping A "generic keybord" is set..and i am unable to change it..so if i set again the vms tsi in and close the preferences it goes back to "keyboard" again.it doesnt save it, but why?? And of course no sound. I am nervous a bit, couse i am unable to use the controller both vdj and traktor...
Hello,

Well, I will try to explane Traktor Options to you:

When you switch between keyboard and controller and close the Options window, where the keyboard will be shown first, but this does not mean that Traktor is not recognizing your controller. If it was not recognizing the controls were not matched on the screen! So if you move the controls in VMS4 and they are matched on the screen means that the Traktor mapped controls correctly. This is fact!

In VMS4:

- Install the driver of it.
- In front of VMS4 select keys corresponding decks: For four decks, change all the keys for USB; For 2 decks, change keys MIDILOG 2 and 3 for USB. MIDILOG 1 and 4 should be in ANALOG.
- Open the ASIO driver. If you use 4 decks, select the four outputs with the following sequence: 1-2, 3-4, 5-6 and 7-8. If you use two decks, select 2 output with the following sequence: 1-2 and 3-4. This mode is the default VMS4.

In Traktor:

In audio OUTPUTS session, you must map the following sequence:

- EXTERNAL MIXER.
- 1-2 and 3-4 (for use with two decks).
- 1-2, 3-4, 5-6 and 7-8 (for use with 4 decks).

In audio INPUTS session, do the following sequence:

- 1-2, 3-4, 5-6 and 7-8 (to 4 decks).
- 1-2 and 3-4 (for two decks).

You can use the VMS4 as INTERNAL MIXER, but there may be conflict between the volume controls and software VMS4because it has internal analog mixer. Will have to do tests to see if the sound quality is not affected.

Remember that if you choose to use the EXTERNAL MIXER mode, you can not use the PREVIEW in the playlist because the sound will come right in on both channels at the MASTER output!
Thank you, i will try to do this tonight.
Yesterday when i was trying the vms acted like a keybord, this is why i thought that "keybord" thing is problem.

few more questions:

-Where can i open the ASIO driver?

-What is the best mapping to the traktor pro (1.2.3- i cant upgrade it,u know..)

-Can i match the leds somehow to traktor? i know i can with mapping one by one, but i dont want it that way..is there any downloadable "mapping" for this problem?
