so i decided to try djay pro again. but now when i start up its asking to edit my mapping. doesn’t give me a selection of my previous map file and there is no default map to start with. every single button and knob needs to be mapped. this is annoying. what happened with the updates to eliminate map files? i

Hi @Stews_CustomFigures, on Windows, the MIDI mapping should be located in the %HOMEPATH%>Music>djay folder. The (built-in) MIDI mapping should also be saved here.

Is the controller being recognized correctly? If the standard mapping does not work, it could be a hardware issue. First, I would try a different USB port on the computer. If that doesn’t help, try a different USB cable and see what happens.

Good points @Chris_R.

  1. Also make sure you have selected the correct USB Source on the RANE Four for each channel.
  2. I would also make sure you are running the latest RANE Four firmware and Windows drivers.
  3. If none of those suggestions work, I would backup your MIDI mappings and djayMediaLibrary folder, then uninstall djay, download the latest version from the official Microsoft store and do a fresh install.

thanks, i had my usb set up to the B side. plugged into the A side and set selection. my previous map showed up to select.
