edit: i use the vci-300 just like cdj's .. after starting the track , i use the pitch slider to match. when i want to fine tune if the track starts drifting, i just rub my finger on the outside of the platter to speed up or slow down. adjust fader. done.

I would say the vci-300 pitch resolution is .02 - .05 . Once they are matched, I rarely ever have to adjust.

The theoretical pitch resolution of a 14bit fader with ±8% would be something like 0,0009765625% if the fader really transmits all the 16384 possible MIDI messages, compared to the 128 possible messages on 7bit MIDI. ±8% on a traditional MIDI fader would mean 0,125% pitch resolution, which isn't too good indeed. I didn't know about this 14bit MIDI before this thread, but I do hope it's coming as the traditional MIDI sure is too limited for current stuff.

Its just like the 1 out of 10 song where for whatever reason, traktor cant seem to sync them up properyly, when you try to do it manually the poor pitch resolution makes it hard to get it right on and leads to you having to do a lot of pitch bending, and I find the pitch bending function on traktor pretty annoying to use... it isnt smooth like cdj1000s or anything... whatever maybe its just the controller I was using.

Regardless, it would still be nice to see the pitch resolution increased from .1 as this is the level of pitch resolution for low-end CDJs


i never taught myself how to do the whole beatgrid mapping thing, it seems like an excessive amount of work to just a couple tracks together.

at OP: seriously, just get traktor 2.1 or whatever, you can pitch in smaller increments with the old prog. so long as you don't need 4 decks or a xone92-esque eq and filter, 2.1 should do the trick
