I've replaced my Mixtrack Pro with a Roland DJ-202, however I'm still wanting to use Traktor over Serato for a number of reasons.
I knew there weren't many full mappings for a 202 from a quick search but I've programmed MIDI controllers in the past with earlier versions of Traktor so I didn't think it'd be that hard to create a full map. Plus I could customise the performance pads for what I actually wanted rather than drum samples!
Anyway... I have most of the basics figured out and working perfectly fine (jog wheel, EQ, play/pause, cue etc.), however I have two issues:
1) The "Shift" button doesn't work when assigned as a modifier. Other buttons to, but not the "Shift" button. Interestingly it's the same MIDI channel/ID on deck B too, however I wouldn't have thought that would be an issue.
2) I can't seem to get the LED output working correctly. From my previous mappings and other research, it seems everything is correct and kind of works, however the light does not stay lit.
E.g. when pressing play/pause to start a track, it lights up when pressing the button but doesn't stay lit.
What does work however, is if I press play on the UI using the mouse! This way, the button stays lit.
I presume this could be something within the controller firmware and to do with button presses and LED outputs but there's not much technical information online about the 202.
Anyone have any suggestions on the above?
I'm willing to put the time in to build a full working mapping for this, just can't get past theses two hurdles
1) Shift modifier is probably built in to a firmware. Check the midi channel and note changes when you hold down the Shift button and press other buttons.
2) Can you please upload a screencapture of your Play/Pause output command?
2) Same results with the modifier set blank. Werid how it works from the UI. Hence why I think they're built into the firmware too. They flash when pushed but don't stay lit. Same for other buttons too.
