Traktor 1.2.7 - map faders to buttons on launchpad mini

[daswadan]

hi there,

i want to do the following: map faders (filter, fx-dry/wet) to buttons on the launchpad mini. it should work the way it does in ableton: slide up and down a row of buttons to move the fader including led feedback.
i´ve been searching the web and different forums, but can´t find a solution. can anybody hepl me?
- i´m still on traktor scratch pro 1.2.7 btw

regards, daswadan

*bump*

no one? seriously?

i found various mappings in which a fader or a rotary is mapped to the buttons of the launchpad. unfortunately, these mappings don´t suit my needs.
so can nobody explain to me how i map a fader or a rotary in traktor to a row of buttons on the launchpad?

Should be fairly simple task...

Add the command you want > Midi Learn the button > change type of controller in to the 'Button' > set interaction mode to 'DEC' > adjust resolution to your likings (check 'Auto Repeat' box if you wish to adjust the parameter by holding down the button)

Now duplicate this entry and repeat all from the example above - just ensure to set interaction to 'INC' this time.

first of all, thx for your awnser. but this is not what i want to achieve. if i map it your way, i would have a fader mapped to just 2 buttons (increase / decrease). what i want to do is to map a fader to a complete row of 8 buttons. sliding the finger over the buttons should increase / decrease the value of the fader.

i know this is possible, already saw videos of it. i just don´t know how to map it.

OK - I miss understand you. You should than make a direct button action. (you hit the button which sets some specific knob value)

I've made one real quickly for anybody interested in this subject. Press 1 to 8 on your keyboard to adjust Deck A volume in steps. You can look right into it and see how I did it.

thank you.

2 questions left: is it possible to map smaller incriments than 0.200 to the buttons? and how do i get proper led feedback?
what i want to do is, when i open the fader (press the buttons one after the other) the pads light up. when i close the fader, the pads turn dark again. and when i open the fader directly by hitting the fourth or fifth pad, all pads underneath light up immediately. like a "fader of light"

- sorry, not a native speaker, i hope one can understand what i mean.

1) Sure thing - you can tweak the direct value in each pad command for what ever amount you wish.
2) We'll need some modifiers for this - if you're not comfortable with them just do a quick google search on 'Modifier Basics'

Going up to bottom they should be set as following:

Button 7: M=7
Button 6: M=6
Button 5: M=5
Button 4: M=4
Button 3: M=3
Button 2: M=2
Button 1: M=1
Button 0: M=0

Then use actual Modifier Output command to display current volume fader position.


Button 7: when M=0 / controller range is 0-7 / no color
Button 6: when M=0 / controller range is 0-7 / no color
Button 5: when M=0 / controller range is 0-7 / no color
Button 4: when M=0 / controller range is 0-7 / no color
Button 3: when M=0 / controller range is 0-7 / no color
Button 2: when M=0 / controller range is 0-7 / no color
Button 1: when M=0 / controller range is 0-7 / no color

Button 0: when M=7 / controller range is 0-7 / green

Here's the .tsi that you can learn/build from - made it on my BASE controller but all commands has it's comments to help you track the buttons.. hopefully you'll be good to re-map a whole thing.
