I recently purchased a new laptop and installed VDJ 8.2 b3343 on it as well as my Hercules MX4 drivers. I am having an issue with the controller not working after about 5 minutes of playing music and mixing. The audio still passes through without an issue, but none of the buttons work on the controller. I had no issues with VDJ 8.1 and the same controller over the past year. Anyone else had an issue like this or offer advise?
I did reinstall the drivers and tried different USB ports on the computer. I do see the VDJ shows the controller in the settings of VDJ.
Thanks in advance....

I can think of 2 things...
1. Your computer disables USB ports to save power. You can disable this "feature" by right-clicking on the USB Hubs from Device Manager ->Properties
2. Hercules suggests a USB hub 2.0 if your computer only has USB 3.0 ports.

I will try that DJDad. I just find it strange that the audio still goes through the Hercules but the controls stop working.

Had a similar problem with Hurcules MK4 last week. Had everything up and running before gig. when I went to start the gig had no controller response. since I hadn't started yet I just restarted pc and it was okay. about 2 hrs in my controls were gone but still had sound. a few minutes later the sound cut out. Through on a cd and restarted the pc (windows 10) this time controller was there for about 5 seconds and didn't come back up. Had to let a premixed cd run the rest of the night. Now at home I can't recreate the problem. I don't know if it's just that the controller is getting old, or a pc problem?
