Kontrol F1 LED mapping questions.

Hey guys and girls…

I've been doing some custom mapping on my Kontrol F1 in Traktor 2.6 and just started getting into LED mapping….

My questions are…

I've noticed when I map LEDs on any of the F1's 16 pads, the only colour is blue? Can this be changed and if so how?

Also when I map an toggle on/off parameter to a pad the illumination is either on (100%) or off (0% illumination).

Can this be changed so even when a parameter is set to 'off' the pad is still dimly lit? Something like 10% illumination for off and 100% on? Would be helpful so you know what pads are actually mapped and so you could see them in the dark.

Appreciate your help.

Hi Jordan and welcome to forum,

Q1. Use MIDI range option and play with different min/max values to get different colors.
Q2. Don't own F1 to help you with this - hopefully other users can give some input.

I would love to hear from this as well, when I mapped it, I only got that ugly maschine mk1 orange color. Blehhhh

You don't need to use midi range with the F1.
When you add an out you get the option of selecting any colour, not sure how you are trying to do it?

Thanks for the replies people.

Where is this option to change the colour? Could you possibly share a screen shot?

this need to be done in the Controller Editor not in traktor

Sorry, I guess you are mapping in NHL rather than midi?
In which case I don't think it's possible... not sure never tried it.

edit: when I say not possible, I mean colours and brightness - I think you're stuck with the blue colour.

I don't think you have access to NHL in Controller Editor, just midi..

Both color and brightness are accessible in Controller Editor.

Only in midi though.
In midi mode in Traktor you can pick any colour/brightness for the pads..

I think the op is trying to alter the default nhl map by the looks of things.
