I have my setup as follows.
In VDJ
No Inputs
Speaker & Headphone
Herc Mk2
channel 1&2 main, channels 3&4 headphones.
I can only hear the headphone play both songs when I have the volume up on them which I don't really want as I need to preview the song coming in.
Is this a limitation of the software/hardware or do I have something setup wrong.
I am using the latest trial version (4.2) of VDJ as the Hercs bundled one is.......(insert what you think)
Thanks in advance for any help.

check that you have not enabled talk over on the mk2 console software
aslo , ensure that the headphone slider on the top of the main vdj skin is set to MIX not cue

Okay I have checked both of those and they are okay
What next. I need to make sure I have spent money wisely as I have already paid for AtomixMP3 which I cant use

No. Still the same.
I am beginning to think (after 2 days) I should dump the herc and just get another sound card to monitor the tune coming in.
I have spent more time tonight messing around trying to stop cutouts, pops etc.
I have a Sony M1 http://www.ciao.co.uk/Sony_Vaio_M1__Review_5522781 has the spec
Top PC has 512Mb RAM and I am nae a dafty. Either the hardware or software is lacking (You Decide)

Anyone help me further with this issue. If I knew that v4.3 would solve it issue I would buy it but I dont want to take the chance.
Read through your blog Sky and will tryout some of the things you suggest for latency etc. I was playing for 3 hours last night and it was fine then it just started to cutout/cutin all over the place. Going to try your .reg fix for startup

Don't worry PFD50, latest Virtual DJ 4.3 and latest MK2 Driver-Firmware work perfect!
I will wait you in the Pro user family ;)

It's okay to say don't worry but I have already paid for AtomixMp3 this week only to find out I could not use the Herc with it so I don't really want to buy Pro until I have heard it work with my own ears.
I keep getting the "New version available" message when loading VDJ trial but it wont let me update the trial.
I might just go back to the supplied version as it worked with the headphones (I think) but I like the display of the file on the newer versions.
I have only had the Herc a couple of days and might send it back and then just buy Pro and use the PC with external sound card. I guess customising the keys will let me toggle the EQ's as thats about all the herc is good for as far as I can see and this will also get rid of all the latency issues I am fighting with

If I read your post correctly, you can't hear the song very well in headphones unless you turn up the volume.
A couple of weaks ago I had the same problem... I pluged my MK2 in a different USB port which made my computer install drivers for that port. Well, because I was in a hurry to start the show I installed the drivers but missed one of the driver install which so happens to be for sound. After the show, I did a uninstall and reinstalled the drivers and did a full sound test through speakers and headphones.... All better now!

It's a VDJ V4.2 issue as it works perfectly well with version I was provided with the HERC.
Sky. I tried your reg fix but I am not sure it has worked as I can still see START button taskbar etc and I though VDJ would run when I logged in?
Thanks for all the help you guys are giving. This seems like a great (an busy) forum.
Have rearranged my USB HDD so the are direct to USB port and not using a hub and taken as many steps as possible to reduce latency.
Having done this though and creating a new user for the purpose my VDJ trial now says 0 days when I had 15 left?
Just going to use the HERC version for now until I get some practice in and know I want to go down this route.
