Thx for your help. I figured it out on my own. Here is a little tutorial for those that are using the Japanese dump:
There are 2 folders, HDX and unpacked
extract both
take the files from the unpacked folder and put them into the DDX main folder...overwrite files
extract ddr-11.zip from bemani tools and put them in your ddr_2009063000 folder.
(Also works if u put contents of ddr-11.zip in the other folders: ddr_2009021600, ddr_2009031600 or ddr_2009061000, but then you
will be playing an older version of the game)
Run config.bat and set your controls
