Hello. Can Virtual DJ Pro be used with the Pioneer DDJ-SX Controller? My Denon MC6000 is on its way out and I'm looking for a new controller but do not want to change software. Thanks.

The simple answer is, yes. More info here.

Pioneer DDJ-SX is natively supported (plug n play), so you will just have to make sure that you run the latest version of Pro Full (7.4.1 currently).

You dont even have to install the updated mapper (from the link above),as it is included in the latest build.

If you have a mac, install Phanton Deejay DDJ Sx 1.2 Mapper. At first Without the mapper, I didn't like the results but Now with the 1.2 Mapper, it feels a lot better. I am running a i7 Quadcore 2.2 Ghz with 16 gigs of ram, 1 gig Radeon 6750 video card. Osx is Snow leopard. If I set the Performance settings to auto, The software goes bad. If I set it to 64 (1Ms) it responds good.

For the SR, you can also set the resolution of the platters to a lower value (read the manual - Utilities mode). This solved the platter/scratch issue here.

Hello. My Denon MC6000 is on its way out.
When you say your Denon MC6000 is on the way out, what do you mean? can you elaborate please. It's just Denon comes on these forums and we like to tell them about bugs and poor quality in the hope they improve future products.
PS, so your not getting the 6000 mk2 then lol

The DDJ-SX is supported and works about 90% of the features. DO NOT use the Samples or you will destroy your hearing, the venues speakers, and possibly the chance to play at said venue ever again. THE SAMPLER spits the voume out at 100% volume.

Thank you all for the great responses. My Denon MC 6000 has a bad Left XLR output. And the left side of the controller is doing strange things. Lights are coming on some buttons when not in use and the play button sticks as well. Its over 2 years old so its not in warranty.

Yes ! Updated mapper works like a charm !

Ok. So I have the DDJ SX. I am using a Mac and the latest ver of VDJ. I downloaded the Mapper for the DDJ SX but how do I go about installing it? Not sure what to do next to get the controller to work with VDJ. Hope to get this working soon. Thanks!!

Pioneer DDJ-SX is a natively supported device and there is no need to install any mapper files. Running Mac OSX, no drivers are needed to be installed either.
Please see here.. http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/DDJ-SX.html
an alternative custom-made mapper with improved performance (based on user's feedback) can be also installed.. http://www.virtualdj.com/addons/15383/Pioneer_DDJ-SX.html

Thank you. I guess I am not sure on how to install the Mapper. I have downloaded it but what do i do from there. Using Mac OSX

Ok. So all I have to do is connect my Mac to the DDJ SX and then go in and select it in the Mappers Section in Config, then it will work?

If you wish to use the native/default mapper, there is no need to install any file (not even the one you see on the wiki page), as long as you run the latest version 7.4.1.
If you wish to install and use a custom-made Mapper, follow instructions from this page ..http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/How%20do%20I%20install%20a%20custom%20mapper.html
