Idea for keyboard mapping.... need help

[dj stifffy]

Not sure if this has been done but have an idea.... basically me and my mates got for drives the oddtime and when we go for a drive I change to a different mapping so i have play functions and cue points, which I dont like having when I play with my full setup... all i use then is s,d,f and g for effects select on fx bank 2 and then deck toggle and plooping buttons.....

Basically what I want to know is, if it is possible to map a key to switch between keyboard mappings....??

No, but you could map your alternative controls to Shift+, Alt+, Ctrl+ keys.

yeah was thinking that alright... I found a solution that changes sound card and everything to simplify it for car purpose... make use of traktor 1 haha cheers for the help though

Yeah you can. In controller manager, just add another keyboard and create the mapping you like. When you want to use mapping #1, set its In-Port to keyboard and the In-Port of mapping #2 to none.

Edit: unless you meant you want to map a key to do the switching for you? Which seems like a non-issue to me, since you only need to do that every now and then..

ha i think its more lazyness on my part, i need it to basically change the sound card to be a smaller usb stick one... different keyboard mapping and a cleaner layout, without sample decks etc.... but realised i can have all this setup in traktor 1 so i can just load and play without having to change settings so traktor 1 for car use and traktor 2 for live stuff

Pretty sure you can map most of the layout changes to your keyboard too, and the method I described makes you switch between 'setups' in 2-3 seconds.
But using 1 and 2 is an option too, indeed!
