Topic: Pitch back to 0% when TCV disabled

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I've just dowloaded V4 and it's impressive works guys!
However I may have missed some parameter but I have an issue with the TCV pitch .
I explain myself: I put the pitch on the turntable to let's say +6%, vdj detects it and the slider moves on the skin, but if i disable TCV control, the pitch comes back to +0%, whereas in 3.4 it stayed at +6%.

Any idea to fix it?
Thanks in advance

Hmmm, maybe this is what happened to me? See my post: http://www.virtualdj.com/forums/54765/General_Discussion/TCV_-_Set_point_for_0__pitch_changes.html

Either way, it does seem like version 4.0 treats the pitch slider as a "relative" rather than "absolute" control... But it really shouldn't be that way -- it's counterintuitive, and it's not how a turntable would operate with regular vinyl...

Perhaps there should be an option to set the pitch slider to either "relative" or "absolute", the same way that the needle-dropping can be set?
 
There is a post about this in the Bugs forum.
 
Forwared to Dev Team
 
Thanx djnorway! ;)
 
I'm quite reassured if this behavior is not wanted :)
As a workaround I change the pitch in vdj and let my turntable's pitch at 0%, if this could help anybody.

Thanks for the quick answers and feel free to contact me for any precision/test...

for some reason i cant get bypass/passthru to workwith 4.0 anymore, i cant find the shortcut action to do it and my old shortcuts for it dont work anymore, under turntable the only thing i can see is timcode_active which turns the timecode control on and off not the bypass
 
Yes DJ Xeo, I'm having the same problem! What happened to the timecode bypass command ?
 
 
Yeah, I think what happened is I took off the TCV control for a minute while I was listening to some tracks just using the keyboard, but then when I activated the TCV again the pitch slider was at around +4%, so it treated that like 0%... Didn't realize that's what happened, but given this is a known bug, that's probably how it happened... Hasn't been a problem before or since, and glad to know it's getting fixed!
 
Ok now we speak...
workaround for now is everytime you disengage the timecode control for some reason, be sure
the pitch slider is 0%.
 
any news on the bypass feature, anyone? its not the best quality but it saves me switching cables if i want to play some vinyl
