Hello Haaki,
Please precise
- your version of VirtualDJ, for example VirtualDJ 8.3 b4675,
- your operating system (for example Windows 10 64-bit 1709).
Hello Haaki,
VirtualDJ beatgrid and flippingdouble are totally software, they are not related to the DJ controller you use:
- the beatgrid is the result of a software analysis,
- the flipping double is a software effect,
so you can remove your DJ controller from the PC, and run VirtualDJ, you will get the same result:
- if you reanalyze the track on which you have once a bad beatgrid, you will still the same beatgrid issue,
- if you apply flipping double on tracks where it is not great once, it will not be greater another time either, whatever the controller.
DJ Console 4-Mx does not process these 2 functions, they are processed in the computer CPU, so changing the firmware will not change anything to these functions of VirtualDJ.
I'm not sure about this. I would like to downgrade the firmware to test this.
Due to the two controllers i can test witrh the controller what has a damaged Knob
without danger..... 🙂
Is there any way to get the old firmware file.
Thank you for the support.
Hello Haaki,
I am really convinced these VirtualDJ features are only in the software, but you can replace the 4-Mx firmware if you want, if you have the old driver, and a USB hub with its power adpater (do not try reflashing the 4-Mx firmware without a USB hub which has a power adapter, it is too dangerous). As firmware 16 was released in 2014, you need older drivers.
1) Install a driver older than 2014 and look in the folder
C:\Program Files\Hercules\Audio\DJ Console Series\firmware,
or in the folder
C:\Program Files\DJHERCULESMIX\Audio\DJ Console Series\firmware,
copy the file 4MX_TUSB_something.dja (fr example 4MX_TUSB_E.dja) on a USB key
2) Uninstall the old drivers and reinstall the new drivers.
3) In the folder C:\Program Files\DJHERCULESMIX\Audio\DJ Console Series\firmware replace the file 4MX_TUSB_F.dja by the older file version you copied in your USB key.
4) Connect the USB hub to the computer, connect the power adapter of the USB hub, connect the 4-Mx to the USB hub.
5) Right click on Windows icon on the bottom left quarter of the screen, and select run,
6) Type the command line
"C:\Program Files\DJHERCULESMIX\Audio\DJ Console Series\firmware\HDJSeriesUpdater.exe" –manual
and follow the menu on the screen.
