it should be "linein" for a controller, or "deck 1 linein" for your keyboard

Thanks for response. I just tried it and didnt work. linein should be all I need to type in right? After I did that I even closed out of vdj and even unplugged RMX. Is 'linein' all it needs to say? Yes its on the rmx that im asking about.

Ok so for some reason it doesnt want to work. I dont have timecodes(yet) but I mapped to that and i could hear audible tone but no dice with linein:( also reset mapper to factory setting and also didnt work. Maybe something going on with controller?

If that doesn't work you need to make sure your sound config says "line in" for the inputs... personally I use advanced sound config, with that you can allocate all the ins and outs individually... If you use that instead just make sure that you set up both the left and right for each input/output.
Also where is the ipod plugged in? the rca's on the back or the microphone?
if it's the rca's try
linein
deck left linein on
deck right linein
deck 1 linein
deck 2 linein
deck 1 timecode_bypass
deck 2 timecode_bypass
if it's in the mic socket try
linein mic
deck left linein mic
deck right linein mic
deck 1 linein mic
deck 2 linein mic
P.S. if you are mapping it to a controller button that has dual sides for the buttons (eg play has a duplicate control on it's opposite side) then you dont need to worry about deck allocation, just try the same button on the opposite side. unless you are using a 4 deck skin and are wanting deck 3 or 4 for the ipod and deck 1 & 2 for internal mixing.

Advance config?! Yikes! newb here. I dont have anything fancy, no 4 deck skin just basic equipment. only using rca jack from lets say my ipod to rmx controller. It always worked that way before. Just recently I Key Assign some buttons(effect1-6) but that was it. everything was ok. never had any problem using rca jack. I had never messed with any other advanced config. never even opened that screen.
I dont know much about mapping but like I stated when I did map it to timecode and press source button with track playing deck A ex. It switched to audible tone. but with linein it wouldnt do anything. track would continue playing as if I never pressed the source button. Very strange:s

go into [config --> sound setup --> inputs] here you will find where you can set line in's, or use advanced config... there is a detailed explination in the audio setup guide pdf on page 11.

Thanx synthet1c for trying. This is what im doing for test purposes. My phone using rca jack to inputs of rmx controller. rmx controler rca jack to studio monitors. just the basiic setup. I have always practiced sets that way.Just curious as to what could have changed? I didnt reset anything...always used input none, output headphone/speaker and souncard rmx. why would I have change anything if it always worked fine before?

don't know for sure as I have never even used a rxm, but the only other possibility if you have tried everything I wrote is a hardware switch on the unit that routes directly to the output...
make sure the phono/line switch is on "line"
if there is another switch like on my reloop for master/internal set it to "master" or similar if when you used it in the past the signal from the ipod wasn't seen on the vdj skin. or "internal" if it was.
if that doesn't work just play with some things.. I learned 80% of vdj's functionality from messing around and 20% from reading.

Finally synthet1c! Thanks for you're help. Been messing with it and you were right. I must have missed an update or something cause now in sound input I have to use line ins which I never had to before. And now changes my deck on screen to line in also. Anyway glad it wasn't my controller that was broken.
