My ldp8 Mappings for Traktor pro 2 (with working leds)

[Just Friday]

Here are my personnal mappings, on going, with their last version in tsi files.
The pads are mapped with cc9-16 following their number on the device : pad 1 cc9; pad 2 cc10, and so on...

Edit : I forgot the essential parto the following attached files : the ldp8 preset you have to load :


First Mapping : All in-one-mapping : 2 Decks(loop control + 4hotcues), 2 samples decks, 2 fx units
Second Mapping : Additionnal controler : C/D control C & D decks either in Decks mode or sample decks mode + 2fx basic control...
Third Mapping : LPD8 "all in one" Controlerist tools : Browsing + 2decks + loop control + Midi Fighter Instant Gratification FX
PROOF OF CONCEPT : I play a bit with this mapping on one track, just to see if it works :

FIRST MAPPING (v0.8) : All in one controller, with working leds :
Features : Files browsing, DECK*C*& D control track mode : loop control, 4 hotcues, SAMPLE*DECK*MODE*Load from list or loop, sample filter control,

Program 1*: Transport
Knobs*:
Knob*: K1-K4*: Filter + Three band Equalizer Deck*A
Knob*: K5-K8*: Filter + Three band Equalizer Deck*B
Pad Mode*:
Pad 5*: Load+Loop+Play Deck A + Select mixer layout
Pad 1*: Load+Loop+Play Deck B + Select mixer layout
Pad 6*: next track + select browser layout
Pad 7*: previous track + select browser layout
Pad 2*: page up + select browser layout
Pad 3*: page down+ select browser layout
Pad 8*: switch layout
Pad 4*: Add as next to preparation list (as I plan to use this tiny beast for casual mixing in friend's flat or for preparing playlist)

CC Mode*:
Nothing, I'm gonna see what can I program there later

Program 2*: Track control
Knobs :
Knob : K1-K4 : Filter + Three band Equalizer Deck A
Knob : K5-K8 : Filter + Three band Equalizer Deck B
CC Mode*:
Pad 5*: Play/pause deck A
Pad 1*: Play/pause deck B
Pad 6*: Loop Set Deck A
Pad 2*: Loop Set Deck DB
Pad 7/8*: Decrease/Increase Loop Size Deck A
Pad*3/4*: Decrease/Increase Loop Size Deck B
Pad Mode*:
Pad 5-6-7-8*: Hotcue 1-2-3-4 Deck A
Pad 1-2-3-4*: Hotcue 1-2-3-4 Deck B

Program*3*: FX control (very basic and buggy... I'm gonna delete it and will implement as much instant grat' functionnality as I can...)
Pad Mode*: FX Assignation*:
CC Mode*: 2 FX Controls
Knobs*: modify 4 parameters on first Knob +3 band Eqs

EDIT : I I can modify enough the instant grat mapping to put all the fx without a hold, but with a deck focus, It would be great... If I have some time and have finished the mapping I realy want to do.


Program 4*: Sample Deck.
CC*Mode :
CC 1-4 Load from song (if in loop) from deck*A or from list + Play/pause when the sample slot is occupied
CC 1-4 Load from song (if in loop) from deck*B or from list + Play/pause when the sample slot is occupied
Pad*Mode :
1-8*: Clear sample slot.

LEDS mapping*:
Program 1*: Play notification on pad 5 & 1 in Pad mode
Program 2*: Deck C & D*: Vumeter in play/Inverted vumeter in Loop
Program 3*: no leds map yet (v0.8)
Program 4*: Playing sample deck = led on in CC mode only

Improvements :
The Fx might be reprogrammed realy soon, as the instant grat' port is coming.
The not programmed buttons will find something to do...

Some of us like to have some more control, like when you have a VCI or an RMX or any other controllers which aren't fit for 4decks mixing...
Some others -like me- encounter a very annoying bug when their controler glitches when they switch from deckA control to deck C control (it's a very discturbing issue on my vms4...)

For both of them, here's my additionnal controler mapping for the akai ldp8 :
It can deal with deck C & D either in sample deck mode or track mode. Enjoy!

Program 3 & 4 : "Instant gratification" ertzatz FX control
For both deck, I remap two kind of midifighter for deck A on program n°3 and deck B on program n°4. I did a few mistake when adapting the midifghter mapping wich have to be solved in order to have 3working combos. Of course there's no bank mode,but you can hold an Fx on deck A or B by pressing pad 1 for deck A on program 3 and pad 2 on deck B on program 4. You can't do the combo, cause the 16 pads are on CC and pad mode, but you can hold an fx from CC mode, if you switch quickly in pad mode then pressing the hold button.


Cause, there's three mappings, plus fx presets, you need to use the big import button to make this mapping works... oh... and don't forget to load the correct presets...



LEDS mapping*:
Program 1*: Play notification on pad 5 & 1 in Pad mode
Program 2*: Deck A*: Vumeter in play/Inverted vumeter in Loop
Program 3*: no leds map yet (v0.8)
Program 4*: Playing sample deck = led on in CC mode only

Incoming Improvements :
Solving a few fx bugs...

Excellent forum, good management,Hope you have good luck every day, every day fun

[Just Friday]

thanks a lot... Hope you'll like those mappings...

[MiL0]

I'll give these a go over the weekend - thanks

[Just Friday]

Thanks a lot!
Please can you do a kind of bug report after this all? Those mappings are not totally finished and I need to polish them*

[Just Friday]

When the trimestre and all their corrections will be finished, I'll have enough time to finish the mappings I wanna port on my ldp8 :
- instant grat on fourdeck (done at 75%) : cause I use the same midi presets for all my mappings, I reassign every message, and don't do the usual thing on the ldp8 (change the midi sent by the midifighter to make them the same as the midifighter)
deckalized focus A/B or A/B/C/D (it'll depend of the way the mapping is written (0%): for this one, I'll modifiy a bit the mapping, cause when need to be able to hold shift button with the third row and I'll remove the "vinyl deck" (pitch bend, etc...) functions...
