This handy accessory has been in development for over 4 months while we made sure it was absolutely perfect. I am proud to say that its up for sale in the web store and kicks ass! The VCi-100 is a great controller but there is one major problem with the jog whel design. The clear plastic area, which is used for pitch bending, is just too small and its very easy to accidentilly trigger the metal plates destroying a smooth mix. Our solution? Make that area bigger and more tactice.
JogGrips will:
- enlarge the outer pitch bend area to give the VCI-100 a CDJ-1000 feel.
- add much needed grip while using the inside the jog wheel.
- allowing you to find both zones by feel and not sight
- ensuring you never accidentally touch the metal plate again!
Wont they reduce the area of touch sensitivity?
Not really, because typically you use 2 or more fingers to find the start of a song or scratch a simple phrase. Jog Grips have been designed so that your hand naturally falls half on/ half off the grips when you grab the wheel. So one of your fingers activate the touch sensor while the index finger benefits from from the grip and added tactility.
How do I apply them?
What do other djs think of them?
“Loving the jogrips. Pretty easy to install and they work great. The grip is amazing, it does not allow my finger to slide on the surface at all.”
–Antonio Gonzalez“These JogGrips are IMHO a superb add-on to the already great VCI-100SE. Thank you very much!”
-Carl Almquist“The se along with the jog grips and arcade buttons is a completely different instrument. It’s going to be in a museum someday. Unbelievable!!!”
