Hey all,
So I finally got around to obtaining a Hercules DJ Console Mk 2 and its latest driver (for the Mac Leopard OS) and was ready to have some fun. However, as soon as I plugged my headphones into the unit, it rapidly became clear that something wasn't right: my headphone selection knob isn't functioning properly. The "Deck A" and "Deck B" positions bring up the song in neither Deck A nor Deck B, the "Mix" position works properly, and the "Split" position brings up a particularly hideous mono mix in the right earphone only. On top of all that, in the control panel, as I change the knob position, the panel gives me strange readings. It correctly identifies the "Deck A," "Deck B," and "Mix" positions, but when set to the "Split" position, the control panel identifies it as such for about a nanosecond before labeling it as "Deck B" again.
And, to put the cherry on top, when I try to set my DJ Console Mk 2 up as the active soundcard for VDJ, it tells me that there's an error in the DJ Console Mk 2's soundcard. As such, I've been using the built-in soundcard on my 15" early-'08 MacBook Pro with the Mk2 as the driver.
What might be the problem, exactly? I've searched a little bit and didn't find any posts relating to these issues, so I figured I'd make a new topic.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys,
spinnaJ -- What do you mean by "setting"? On Virtual DJ or on the DJ Console Mk2 itself? I'm not using an external mixer right now, if that makes any dfference (honestly don't own one; relatively new to DJing, so I'm getting the hang of it and collecting equipment as I go).
DJ Phatso -- I'm using the 5.2.1 Mac edition of Pro. It tells me I'm fully updated.

It is at the VDJ sound setting;)
Have u activate the herc in the remote panel? It should be highlighted in green.
