American Audio VMS4/4.1
=======================
# American Audio VMS4/4.1


The original VMS4 has problems with sound quality. The microphone input
impedance is off and the output volume is low. The VMS4.1 is the same
controller, except that those hardware issues have been fixed. The
Traktor edition has different labels on some buttons & knobs, but it’s
otherwise the same hardware as the VMS4.1.

## Setup

.. note::
Mixxx expects the VMS4 to be set to “Post EQ” mode for best
sound quality. Do this by holding down the Headphone Cue button on
Midilog 4 while powering on the unit. You only need to do this once.
(Each time you do, it changes the mode back and forth.) Consult the
`user manual <https://web.archive.org/web/20220727170646/intranet.americandj.com/ItemRelatedFiles/8347/vms4.pdf>`__
for more information.

To check the status of this in Linux, at a
console, issue the command ``lsusb -v|grep 'iSerial\|iProduct'`` and
look at the serial number under the VMS4 device per the instructions in
the user manual. As of this writing, the leading digit should be **1**.
