Roland DJ-808 Traktor mapping - Questions (before I start mapping)
The DDJ-SZ Traktor mapping here https://maps.djtechtools.com/mappings/2629 is working great (on the newer DDJ-SZ2 as well).
Cons:
- The price of this unit is 2000 euro.
- I do have it at home to test, and the above mapping working smooth, but the size of the controller itself is way too big.
I went to the music-store today and felt in love with the Roland DJ-808.
It’s around €1000, has practically the same layout as the DDJ-SZ2 + it has a native drum-computer/sequencer onboard.
With all the 909,808,707,606 (basic)sounds built-in :thumbup:
Since there’s no Traktor-mapping out-there for this DJ-808, I probably want to create it myself.
Based on the mapping showed above.

EDIT: The DDJ-RX looks even more like the DJ-808 layout-wise, so perhaps this mapping of Paddy is a better starting-point: https://maps.djtechtools.com/mappings/6559
I mean,
How difficult could this be?
All the stuff is in the mapping already.
It’s just a matter of changing the midi-notes to the corresponding buttons/knobs/switches of the Roland DJ-808… right?
Any advice is more than welcome!
