Is it possible to change natively installed device definitions?

No, you cant. Which device are you interested in, and what is the reason you wish to change the definition of the device ?
For whatever reason, you will have to write your own definition, if you wish to bypass the native one. http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/Controller_Definition.html

Hi djdad,
As i find vdj the best dj software there is, there is one option in decadance2 that i like very much. It's called "base x-fade". it changes the base_Eq while sliding the crossfader.
I tried to map vdj like this (crossfader = crossfader & param_invert & deck left eq_low & crossfader & param_invert & deck right Eq_low & crossfader )
It almost did the trick, but the base_eq is at maximum all the time. So i wanted to try and alter the device definitions so the base knobs go max to zero point.
I tried making a definition file, but vdj allways go fore native files.
I hope you understand my english as i'm not very good in expressing myself in it :)

What you want to accomplish is mapping related - you don't want to change the definition file for this.

I really tried, but i can't get the bass knobs to go only from -12 to 0. it always go's from -12 to +12.

Try this:
param_smaller 0.5 ? deck 2 eq_low & crossfader : crossfader & deck 1 eq_low & param_invert & deck 1 eq_low
param_smaller 0.5 ? deck 2 eq_low & crossfader : crossfader & deck 1 eq_low & param_invert & deck 1 eq_low

BTW:
You can also use "crossfader & eq_crossfader_low"
It will produce the same result with previous code, but you won't see your bass knobs move on screen ;)

As mentioned, you can assign a controller/keyboard button or even a custom button on the skin as ...
toggle '$lowxfade'
and then map your crossfader as ..
var '$lowxfade' ? crossfader & eq_crossfader_low : crossfader
toggle '$lowxfade'
and then map your crossfader as ..
var '$lowxfade' ? crossfader & eq_crossfader_low : crossfader

Thx all,
Almost there. :)
Now when the crossfader is in the middle both bass knobs should be at 25%. For the moment they are at 50% so the output is still double bass.
Maybe the param_multiply can be used here.

Here some pictures of what I'm trying to do. PhantomDeejay is close with his solution.
