**The LCD DIM Pot doesn't work:** For whatever reason, the pot I have on the core that is supposed to dim the backlight doesn't work. I don't really care though, as the LCD is at a good level, and I don't think I'll need to change it. | **The LCD DIM Pot doesn't work:** For whatever reason, the pot I have on the core that is supposed to dim the backlight doesn't work.

+ | **Trouble Doing Sysex Transfers via Vmidibox64:** I wanted to customize the button/LED behavior to act as toggled inputs instead of simple on/off (meaning 1 press turns LED on, 2nd press turns LED off), as well as change the default fader/pot labels (Reverb, Chorus, etc) to labels that matched the functions on my box. It seems to be easily done via Serge's Vmidibox64 program, but every time I would then try to do the sysex dump to the midibox, the LCD would start showing bizarre characters, or shift over a few characters. Weird stuff. Eventually, I used Midi-Ox and the mk_syx perl script to create the Sysex file and upload it, which worked perfectly. Details of this process can be found here: http://www.ucapps.de/howto_tools_mbsyx.html | ||

**Consider the usefulness of a shift key:** I hadn't thought of it when I started designing the box, but Traktor can make use of a shift (modifier) key, so you should be able to have a number of your buttons do double duty, simply by adding a separate shift button. This could be especially useful if you're using the control surface to select tracks, etc. | **Consider the usefulness of a shift key:** I hadn't thought of it when I started designing the box, but Traktor can make use of a shift (modifier) key, so you should be able to have a number of your buttons do double duty, simply by adding a separate shift button.
