Ok. I know we have been working a couple different threads to capture all the different concerns with the Denon controllers. And it has become a bit unmanageable for me. And, I do want to help you all out that has these controllers.
If you simply have a scripting question of how to make something work .. please use your existing thread or make a new thread - I will remove any posts that are not Hardware Functionality related with regard to the current mapping from first install with V6.
So, what I am asking is that you post your comments in this thread and make your first line of the post like one of the following (copy/paste if it helps).
[S1200]
[S3700]
[HD2500]
[HC4500]
[HS5500]
If you already have a thread out there please give me an update here on what / where we are at and we will continue all conversation here.
If your comments were already made by another user ... please don't quote the whole post .. just simply say "Same as ... " and put the user's name that made the comment.
This will help me focus on what we can do to make things better and not have to 'find' 5,6 or 7 different threads ...
IF there are any posts made about any other controllers not Denon - they will be REMOVED.

Installed 6.0.1
Same half display, no platter operation on Deck 2 (this is all being done from 1 HS5500)
On the Display:
Time, Pitch, spinning disc image & BPM are trying to read data from both decks and send it to the left side display simultaenously. Song title remains on Deck 1
---
Pitch on the LCD correlates to where the physical slider is on the controller, irregardless of which deck is playing.
When the slider is moved it zeros out the pitch on the other deck. Moving the slider to +2 makes the display change to the other deck (once switched over to that deck).
Thanks,
Taipanic

Lights on the controller don't work anymore after installing version osx 10.5.7
In version 5 and 6
Thanks, ldb
@djldb - your issues is a Mac OSX 10.5.7 issue -- please see the Mac forums -- MIDI is totally screwed in Mac OSX at the operating system level. Not a VDJ Problem.

Only the red 'pc' text. and when pressed a button there is a blue text 'link'
I hope this is usefull for a quick fix.

Here is a picture of the LCD screen. Only the left side has an image, the right side is completely blank.

The output for track time, spinning disc image, and track length dots for both decks are being displayed on the left screen. When two tracks are playing they constantly refresh to the same display on the left, making them unusable. For example, if deck1 is playing a song at 5:35 and deck2 is playing a song at 3:10, the display will constantly refresh both to the left screen. I know this is probably being redundant, but I am just trying to assist as much as I can to help get this resolved.
Thanks,

... platter mode changes both decks not only one - so , if i put one deck in classic vinyl i also put the other deck classic vinyl .
PLATTER_ON changes modes on both decks and should only change it for the deck it is activated on

[HS550] - Display Issue of each Track's Info
I am sure I know why the display is creating that issue ... will require a change to the definition file for the controller ... will let you know when a fix is available.

when i spin back the wheel on scratch mode it pitch blends. I have to press the platter to stop the music fully to spin back or i have to move foward a litttle then backward so that is scratches and doesn't pitch blend.
Already reported and posted above -

This thread is only for things that are making it impossible for the controllers to function properly
Not scripting changes, Not how do I do this or that, or this feature should exist
If it doesn't work that is what I want to know ....

* Pitch level resetting when changing decks and moving slider
* Track is slipping backwards when scratching with platter. (Mine does not slip when using Denon by itself.)

It's because you are using the beta version for the Mac ... it has not been fixed in that version as of yet.
