Roland DJ-202 Traktor Mapping

[Stewe]

Try this one: Note Off trigger Play.zip

Just remap it to your Play button of Deck A.

Damn, you're good! That works.

I think I understand it...

Button toggles (briefly) M1=1
When pressing play/pause, will only play when M1=1 (same button so same time as M1=1)
Output LED is based off M1=1 which it was briefly

I'll try applying this to the other buttons I need to sort the LEDs for

Really appreciate your help dude! Once I've completed this, I'll upload it.

[Stewe]

Nice! Glad that worked!

Cheers,

I think I should be able to get the other buttons lit that I need too following the same principal.

- Scratch/slip enable
- Hotcues
- FX

I presume I can use the same modifier # for multiple buttons to enable the LEDs? They're unlikely to be pressed at the same time I guess

For the Hotcues, this might not be an ideal solution as you are supposed to trigger them with Note On message (if you you are planning to beat juggle). But you should be good with triggering Cues with "release of the button" and and have Quantize enabled.

Basically you will always have to tap the Cue button. (or hold it down, and time the release to trigger a Cue)

I presume I can use the same modifier # for multiple buttons to enable the LEDs? They're unlikely to be pressed at the same time I guess

If you run out of modifiers you can always add another Generic Midi device which will give you a new set of 8 modifiers.

Looking forwards to see the result
I'm sure this mapping will make many people happy!

[agcalamita]

Yeah, I thought about that for the hotcues!
I'll have a play around and see what I can do. They have different brightnesses to.

When using it in Serato there isn't much that's lit up. The play/pause flashes when a track is loaded but not playing. I'm not too worried about that though

Didn't think about adding another generic device and adding more modifiers! Thanks!

Yeah, I should get some time over the weekend to finish the mapping off then I'll upload to the DJTT list.

Might actually be able to get some mixing done after all this

Hi guys, i have been doing the same. can i ask if anybody has managed to get the pad select sections LED's working like they do in serato? Once i had the serato dj subscription but i dont now. If i loaded serato 1st, the button LED's would flash when pressed with shift or in a row(once + shift slow flash, twice + shift flash quickly, solid light default, press again flsh). I could then close serato and open traktor to use my mapping and the LEDs would continue to work on the pad select buttons as if it was still using serato. This is handy to see which mode the pads were in.

so here is a brief of what the buttons supposed to do:

The 4 buttons are all 1 note, with different velocities (16 different velocities) - the controller only sends these velocities if i have opened serato then closed it. The controller buttons only flash at different rates when pressed once I have done the same (open closed serato).
Im wondering if theres a way to get the controller working the same (as far as the pad select modes are concerned) as if i opened serato first, in traktor with the flashing lights for these buttons. Is there some sort of message sent back and forth to enable this? or is this just down to the controller firmware?
#If i dont open serato, the 4 buttons stay solid green.

Anybody managed to get them flashing?

bellow is a very confusing 'diagram' of what the buttons do in different modes. Also note when swiching between buttons; 1-2 , 1 -4 1- 3, or 2-1, 4-2, the pad notes are all changed for cue, loop, seq,, sampler. but for different modes for the same button, the pads stay the same note. So all i can think of is having a modifier or 2 to track which button or mode of the same button the pads are in.

Button 1 Hotcue - velocity x
HOT CUE - 1 PRESS (OR DEFult). Cue Loop - 2nd press Pitch Play - shift press. another mode - shift 2nd press

button 2 LOOP velocity x velocity x velocity x
LOOP - 1 PRESS (or default). split beat jump / auto lloop manual loop another mode

button 3 - velocity x
SEQUENCER (or default)

button 4 velocity x
SAMPLER - 1 PRESS (OR DEFAULT) slicer freeze mode another mode

also sorry for my cconfusing engllish skills, i blame my laptop, so thanks for taking the time to read this.

i have found that with brightness on LEDs that output velocity 0 / 127 = off, 1 / 127 = dim, 2 / 127 = on full

[agcalamita]

Nspark21,

I've not looked the LED mapping for the pads yet.

That's my plan for this evening. I only use the hotcues and loop currently myself.

The pad notes do change depending on which button above you have pressed (and selected via lit LED).

From what I understand from your post above, each one of those buttons (hotcue, loop, sequencer, sampler) would have to be a modifier and then the pads have an output condition of that modifier = 1.

However, based on what Stewe has posted, I'm not sure how difficult that would be as I still don't fully understand how I got the play button to work using his export
