Hi team,
I have a post in the general thread, but I think this Forum might be of better help, so MODS, sorry if I appear to double post...And if I need to move this to its own thread, just let me know and I'll make that happen.
I bought a DN-HC4500 and am having somethng weird happen. First my specs:
HPdv7-1240us
2.1 GHz Dual Core
4 Gig RAM
Vista 64 bit
VDJ 6.0.4
Denon DN-HC 4500 firmware vers 1006
O.K. First, I just upgraded to 6.0.4 from 6.0.1 (I didn't like how my TotalControl reacted to the newer versions after 6.0.1) - So VDJ can recognize the 4500. Now, the problem is, my videos (located on an external HD) will load faster than my Audio files, which are located on my internal. This could be a problem if, say I get a last minute request/change of song, because the song will play faster than it is loading, leading to choppy playback or dead air. This wasn't a problem with 6.0.1, and it runs fine with the 4500 NOT connected.
Any ideas as to why that is? Is it an ASIO setting? How about other 4500 users running Vista with 6.0.4 - are you having similar experiences? So far this controller is amazing and if I can remedy this situation, that would be great. Thanks for your help

Download the vdj registry tool and enable speed load. See if that cures it.

Rebooting the Denon
Rebooting the Denon
Sorry but this problem have not a solution....
I resolved this issue by using XP
Note: The denon still reboots by itself
but my issue was I had to actually hit the power switch off/on
then go back to midi mode to get Vista To Recognize
Other Tips:
1) Use a Skin that fits your screen, stretching causes problems but this may already be common knowledge
2) If your NOT using the Denon SoundCard, go into the Windows sound setup and tell windows "Do Not Map to Device" it will conserve USB Bandwidth
3) Use a DPC Latency checker and disable all problem devices
4) Map rescan_controllers to a KeyBoard Map if your gonna go back and forth between modes
5) Map Smart Scratch to a KeyBoard Key, the Denon 3700 seems to not putthis back from that mode sometimes (yes even with the switch clicked )
Cool Tricks of the day:
A) Map LED_LEFT_OF_LCD and RIGHT_OF_LCD to get beat
This will blink the strobes next to the LCD to the Beat.
B) Remap Dump(I don't use it) to Clone Deck
helps out if you like Chopping and Screwing..
I will post a video as soon as I get my next deck.
Thanks,

Are you using Denon ASIO driver v101?
If not, get it here:

Thank you for the link.
Also, thanks to kradcliffe for the recommendation to use the registry tool.
I did that and it seems to run fine now. My ASIO version is 100, and I think the problem is solved. I'm going to run live with it tonight to super-test it. I'll install v101 this weekend, as to have time to battle test before going live. THANKS AGAIN!

Sorry to repost this but if anyone had this same problem and knows the fix that would be awesome, or if your not having this prob that would be good to know too:
Essentially, the decks show up on the opposite sides in the program. So the deck that is on my physical right side shows up as the deck on the left side of the screen. On my x1700 mixer everything is great though... I tried flipping them in the setup section (where you select drivers/external mixer/etc) and it did nothing. I also tried reassinging the soundcards in there. no dice.
Anyone have the slightest clue what could be causing this? its baffling me
Many thanks.

By default swapping decks is assigned to the eject button (6.03 and above 6.01 used to have smart_play as the default)
So if your decks come up controlling the wrong sides (i.e. left controlling Deck 2 and Right Controlling 1)
just press the eject button.
The function that it is mapped it is call invert_controllers;
you can map this to any button.
Thanks,
DJ SMG!

Hi There,
I have 2 DNS-3700 connected to a Mac. I followed step-by-step the instructions, but I'm unable to make the two work together. The result: One of the units is controlling both sets and the other unit is just dead. It is also very unstable.
Can someone please help?! Thanks!

Hey all,
Things with my DN HC4500 worked out okay but someting weird happened. The left deck became unresponsive, both on the unit and VDJ. I'd try to play a song and nothing happens, no sound, no progression on the waveform on VDJ. when I tried to drop another song on it, it gave me the "a song is currently playing" message. I rebooted the program and it was fine for the rest of the night. Anyone else experience this?

Does the Denon DN-X500 crossfader work with audio on VDJ 5.2.1?¿ I use also the DN-HC4500 controller
At the moment just work with videos but not just with audiofiles
Thanks for the support

Yes, if you connect the two deck outputs of the HC4500 to two separate channels on the mixer (E.g: Channels 1 & 2), then use the crossfader assign switches to assign one channel to the A side and the other to the B side, you will be able to also crossfade audio (In the same way you would if you were using ordinary CD players.)
