Topic: Need help with various settings
Hi. My laptop recently crapped out and when I reinstalled VDJ, most of my settings disappeared. I'm having an extremely frustrating time trying to get things back the way I like them. I use the Essentials version. Right now, I need help with the sampler and the pads.
(1) No matter what I do, the pads revert back to Stems even if I close the program when the Sampler is selected. On startup, I get Stems instead of the sampler and I can't find a setting to change. Please help.
(2) I used to be able to have 8 samples on the sampler on deck 1 and 8 other samples on the sampler on deck 2. I loaded up the sampler with 16 samples, but I still get the first 8 on both sides. Again, I can't find the setting to change this. Anyone? Please?
(3) Also, a mic issue. My mic volume is perfect for all my apps except VDJ. It used to be the same as other programs, but now, even with the mic volume all the way up, it's still too quiet. Again, it's not the mic because it's at the perfect level for Audacity and Zoom etc. There must be a setting that I can't find.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Thanks!

1 could be a write permission issue at the o/s level
2 setting samplerSpanAcrossDecks
3 don't know.
 

RE #1... I'm not sure what that means, o/s permissions. Is there no setting to keep it on sampler?

RE #2... That fixed it! Thanks!

RE: #3... I unplugged everything, restarted, and plugged everything back in and restarted. It helped. It's not where it used to be, but I can deal with it.
 

Additional info... I thought maybe if I switched the sampler to the first position on the pads, it would help. However, despite changing the order in padsPagesOrder, nothing changed. The layout is still the same. Not that I really care, but it's another issue I can't find in the settings.

UPDATE for this issue... I ended up switching all four of the pad categories to sampler. Since I only use the pads for samples, it's a perfect solution for me.
