Akai AMX Loop Lenght

[theodorodlund]

Hi! I just bought the AKAI amx to use with serato.
I think it works okay but to things that I think is strange.
Maybe I am doing something wrong


1. How to set loop length to 4,8,16
2. how to fast forward into a song


Anyone know something about this?

cheers!

i could be wrong but you might need the akai afx for all that, or at least a secondary controller mapped to those functions, for an example i have my twister mapped to activate different sized loops on pressing an encoder down and if i need to resize it i have an encoder mapped for that as well, and as far as fast forwarding, im not sure how you would do that, the afx has a touch strip to pin point a location in a song though , or if you have a touch screen you could do it that way

:edit, if you select the midi learn function there is a per deck fast forward button that can be mapped

please see below, it has full loop support:


This very complete Traktor mapping adds 3x shift combination to enable all-in-one functionality: 4x decks, 6x hot cues, Loops, 5x insta-FX pages, “super cross fader”.
My own upcoming extension adds Beatjump, Loop roll, Selectable FX control, Zoom + Layout changes, Library adv browsing.

Sounds like you're creating an edit of one of my mappings

Indeed I am - your base work is amazing!
I'm going to contribute a clear manual that extends on your own, a list of midi messages, and a list of modifiers (that I reversed-engineered)

That's awesome! Do you also plan on doing a video guide maybe?

for now I'm making:
* pictures of the new functions and shifts (same as you presented your v0.2.0)
* a word document with the explanation of all features and internal variables
* an excel table with all the midi messages
