Using a Hercules DJ Console (Mac Edition) with DJ-1800

The Hercules DJ Console (Mac Edition) - http://www.hercules.com/uk/DJ-Music/ - is a small but full-featured

MIDI DJ controller and 6-channel sound card. It includes 2 sets of controls, which can be used to control CD

Players 1 and 2 in DJ-1800. They can even be used to control DJ-1800 when it is in the background. The

Console also features an amplified headphone output and a microphone ‘talkover’ input.

To use a Hercules DJ Console (Mac Edition) – or “HDJC” - with DJ-1800 v3.0 or later under OS X, simply plug the

HDJC into your Mac, and then launch DJ-1800. The lights on the HDJC will flash on and off to indicate that the

console has been recognized by DJ-1800.

Note: This documentation describes the set up process for the original “Hercules DJ Console (Mac Edition)”. If

you are using the newer “Hercules DJ Console MK2”, or the “Hercules DJ Control MP3”, please see the

appropriate documentation for those controllers, which can be downloaded from

http://www.dj1800.com/controlhardware.php.

The “Cue” and “Play/Pause” buttons on the HJDC have illuminated lights behind them. The status of these

lights mirrors the statuses of the LED lights on the DJ-1800 on-screen interface. So, for example, when a CD

player is paused, the Play/Pause button for that CD player will flash on and off, in time with the on-screen LED.

The “Master Tempo” button has a small red light next to it on the HDJC. This button and LED are used for

setting and showing the Pitch Lock status (on or off) in DJ-1800. The red light reflects the status of the green

Pitch Lock LED on the corresponding DJ-1800 CD Player.

The “Headphones” button on the HDJC has a small green light just below the button. This button and LED

are used to set and show the “mixer cue” status for that CD player. The green light reflects the status of the

green Cue LED on the DJ-1800 on-screen mixer for that CD player. When the light is on, that CD player is

selected to play through the headphones as well as the liveoutput.

Please note that the table above shows some controller-to-interface mappings that do not match the text

shown on the HDJC for that controller. Specifically:

oThe HDJC "Pitch" slider is used as the Volume slider in DJ-1800

oThe HDJC "Volume" twister is used as the Pitch Shift control in DJ-1800 (to enable 0.01% accuracy)

oThe HDJC "Master Tempo" button and light indicate whether or not Pitch Lock is turned on for that CD

Player in DJ-1800

oThe "1, 2 and 3" buttons and their associated lights select and indicate the current play mode (Single,

Continue, Loop)

oThe "Shift" button toggles between the Time Display modes

oThe "Treble" twister actually controls the Gain on the DJ-1800 mixer

oThe "Medium" twister controls the Hi twister on the DJ-1800 mixer

oThe "Bass" twister controls the Low twister on the DJ-1800 mixer

oThe large platter wheels control the DJ-1800 inner jog wheels

oThe "Autobeat" button doesn't do anything

oThe HDJC joystick and 'mouse' buttons don't do anything

These mismatches are caused by different feature sets in DJ-1800 and Traktor (the HDJC was originally

designed for use with Traktor). We have deliberately adapted some of the controller usages to better-fit DJ-

1800’s functionality.

Using the Hercules DJ Console (Mac Edition) as an audio output in DJ-1800

As well as providing a useful control interface for DJ-1800, the HDJC also features a 6-channel (3 x stereo) USB

audio device. When plugged in to your Mac, the HDJC appears in DJ-1800’s Output Preferences as a 6-

channel device, as shown in the picture below.

To use this device for audio output, select channels 3+4 for Master output, and channels 1+2 for Cue output, in

DJ-1800’s “Dual + Mixer” mode. This is shown in the picture below.

Plug your headphones into the Headphone socket on the front panel of the HDJC. (This socket mirrors

whatever is playing through channels 1+2 of the HDJC.) You can then use the HDJC’s Headphones volume

control knob to modify the actual headphone level whilst you DJ.

Plug your amplifier into the “3 + 4” output sockets on the back of the HDJC, using either the dual RCA sockets,

or the mini-jack socket. The live output of DJ-1800’s mixer will then be played through this stereo pair of

outputs.
