Topic: (Failed to connect) Numark Mixtrack Pro 3 - Page: 1

This part of topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information

Hi all,

[edit: accidentally wrote mixtrack PRO 3. It's just mixtrack 3]

As the title explains, the Numark Mixtrack 3 fails to connect with VDJ.

When I open VDJ, a popup recognizes that it is connected, but none of the functions come active.
In the settings under the list of controllers, it says "Numark Mixtrack 3 (Failed to connect)" verbatim.

It was working just a week ago and nothing has changed so I'm not sure why it isn't working.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Please some one help with this. I have the same issue and have been working up and down all the knowledge articles. Same issue with 8.2
 
Mine connects and works but no leds at all on device. running vdj8.2 MAC ... HAD TO TEST the device in audio/midi settings multiple times to get my mac to see the item the reloaded vdm 8.2 and the device works just no less!
 
Happens too, this support is terrible, we need help!
 
I'm having a similar problem with my mixtrack pro 3. I've paid for vdj pro but cant log in. (navigation to the website was cancelled) I've even turned off firewall and deleted anti viruses. No joy. I want my money back

You need a pro license to use a controller, otherwise will only work for ten minutes.

It's connected to your computer but not controlling VDJ? Please provide further details (more = better).

Not according to the info under your user name. You are shown as having a Plus (or controller) license. That's not VDJ Pro.

No - you can also have an LE version or a Plus (controller) license.

Well you are logged in on here with your controller license, as it shows your status. Have you gone to the licenses tab within VDJ options, does it show in there

Yeah, my mistake, meant you need a license
 
So anyone know what to do about this problem? I am having the same issue with my Numark Mixtrack 3 - "Failure To Connect" to VDJ 8.2. It connects intermittently from day to day, but straight through once connected. Sometimes it never connects, then a "Restart" of the computer will fix it 50% of the time. I have Win 7 with zero power features set, meaning nothing is sleeping, hibernating or going into shut down mode (including all USB ports). I never had this problem with VDJ 8.0.
 
This has also happened to me. Noticed it about a week ago. I pay for pro. Have tried to restart...log out/log in but nothing seems to be working. The controller lights up as if the platters are empty. Hope someone has a solution..


edit: I disconnected all other usb devices(but left the mixtrack connected)...did a hard restart. That has seemed to work. Im assuming my logitec gaming headphones is what caused it? Have been using them with the controller and software for months with no issue. Oh well. Hopefully this helps someone haha.
 
Same problem still no solution ... someone help plz
 
I'm having the same problem. I have a mixtrack platinum and a pro licence . The mixtrack came with serato intro download which I tried and it wouldn't connect to my hardware so I tried using VDJ 8 because my old controller worked on it fine on VDJ 7 but after 15 mins of it stopped working and I was asked to buy a licence for vdj 8 so I bought the VDJ pro licence thinking it would work but no it can't connect to the mixtrack. I'm about to put it back in its box and take it back to the shop to return it. Any help would be great.
 
Does your o/s see the controller [check device manager, ! indicates a problem]
 
Yes ! The O/S can see the controller , I can disable/enable it , Troubleshooter says the device is working normally.
 
I would try ..
- a different computer
- a different USB cable
- a different USB port
If still not working with the bundled software, then definitely something is wrong with the controller, so best is to contact with Numark Support and request assistance or a replacement unit.
 
Thanks for the advice . I tried all usb ports and a new cable but still nothing. So then I tried it on the laptop with VDJ 8 and it works perfect ! So I did a full recovery on my pc and updated everything but still won't work on my pc. Is there a codec or something that my pc could be missing ?
