After DAYS OF SEARCH i still can't find Hercules Djcontrol AirPlus MAPPERS for Virtual DJ 7 Pro. Someone?

Hey mate, I did some digging and found some wall of text that might help you. Have you downloaded the driver for you're controller? Here it the massive wall of text.

Description: I made some changes to the default mapper for VirtualDJ PRO v7.4+ with Hercules HDJC(MK1) - MK2 - MP3 - MP3 e2 - MK4 - Steel - RMX - RMX 2 - DJ 4Set - 4-Mx - Instint - AIR - AIRplus & MP3 LE.

The ZIP pack that you have downloaded it to unzipped and you need to copy/overwrite the mapping file of your controller into the path: PC -> My Documents\VirtualDJ\Mappers MAC -> /users/YOURNAME/Library/VirtualDJ/Mappers

Only for Hercules AIR, AIRplus & MP3 LE it's necessary to copy also the definition file into: PC -> My Documents\VirtualDJ\Devices MAC -> /users/YOURNAME/Library/VirtualDJ/Devices

NOTE: If you cannot see or access the Library folder on MAC, please see -> http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/MAC.%20Reveal%20hidden%20Library%20folder.html

NOTE: do it with Virtual DJ closed

----- v2.2 (18 June 2013) -----

  • Ability to change the parameter 1 and 2 of effect active, when an audio effect is active the rotation of the left Jog change the parameter 1 and right Jog change the parameter 2 (similar to Pioneer CDJs), when effect turn back off to the Jog function coming back to Pitch Bend / Scratch. Old mapper action was "effect active ? param_multiply 300% & effect slider 1 : jog_wheel", if you don't like new 2 Jogs way to control effect you can past the old one in VDJ mapper page.

In the Hercules 4-Mx when an audio effect is active the rotation of the Jog change the parameter 1 and the Ctrl knob change the parameter 2 (similar to Pioneer CDJs), when effect turn back off to the Jog function coming back to Pitch Bend / Scratch and the Ctrl knob change the Filter. To reset the filter push Shift.

In the Hercules AIR the button MAGIC it anable the AIR SENSOR to change the parameter 1 of FX.

In the Hercules Steel the effects parameter 1 and 2 can be changed with the two top left knobs, when the "Applt Ctrl. On" Led it's ON it indicate if knobs works for Deck A or B, in Select mode the two knobs it apply the filter of DecK A and B.

  • Ability to scroll fast within the track with Jog, just press the |< or >| button and rotate the Jog.

  • Pitch bend make short seek when track is in pause

  • Ability to make "browsing" of the tracks with jogs, simply hold the "Cue Select" or "Up" or "Down" buttons on the deck and rotate the Jog. (No Hercules MK2). Note: that only works on one deck/jog at one time.

  • Hold on the load button for more than half a second to unload the track from the deck.

  • Added blink on Play/Pause buttons when the song is paused (No Hercules Steel because it have the Stop led).

  • Fx and Loop leds blink when Fx or Loop are activated into Hercules MP3, MK2 and HDJC(MK1).
