Post up a screenshot of your timecode window.

I do not understand why the timecode 1 is ok but in Record: Mixvibes while it is a CD serato

and why it does not detect the timecode 2

I think I made ​​the connection correctly by following the guide VDJ page 99

hmm , shouldnt the Channel Thru be Off ? Can you also try with the other Input Channels as well ?

Btw, since we have you here, can you provide us the vid & pid values of the Rane SL4 ? You will find it in Applications->Utilities->System Information ->Hardware folder->USB sub-folder->Click on the Rane SL4 on the right side and post a screenshot if not sure which values we need.

The diagram shows that you should use Outputs 3,4 and 5,6 and Inputs 3,4 and 5,6 as well, so you probably need to use those in the Audio config.

PS. I have just pushed an update which includes a pre-define audio configuration for the Rane SL4 (available in builds ending at .862 or higher). It should provide a button in the Audio Config with decks 1,2 to Outputs 3,4/5,6 and timecodes to Inputs 3,4/5,6, according to the recommended connection diagram.

Also make sure you've set the dip switches on the soundcard correctly for CD/Phono for each channel.

Thx for all your good advice , after setting like this



the two timecode work well . You update will be welcome Dad, i waiting for it :-)

What do you think about this way to use the SL4, i have a djm 750 with cdj 2000 Nexus :

Is there a reason you don't want to use the CDJ's as controllers and sound cards and get rid of the Rane box?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not against timecode. I use it with two of my CDjJ000's. But my CDJ400 I use as a controller.

I find that with the RANE SL4 sound quality is really better . I tested different configurations and there is a big difference .

If you prefer the sound on the Rane, have you tried using the CDJ's as a controller and the Rane output?
 

Posted Sun 09 Nov 14 @ 9:06 pm
Yes i have. And with the rane (with timecode) the sound is really better. I scratch a little bit and when you scratch or doing a backspin you heard the difference.
I know it must be silly using cdj 2000 nexus and don't use it at 100% of its capacity ( as controler) but with this config i think i will be able to mix everywhere on every controler ( just need the rane) .
I have notice that video transition is better too in timecode don't ask me why :-)
