Does anyone have any experience with the PMX-20?
I've searched and found barely anything on the hardware, but it does look like it would suit my needs as a Traktor controller.

It has the word "gemini" printed on it. Don't buy it.
If you have any questions about how it works or what it can do, let me know.
I just got one. Going to have to map the controls...Quote:

Which controls can not be MIDI mapped?
Is it possible to unassign channels to the xfader?
Shouldn't be much of a problem. Everything is MIDI mappable.Quote:

I will add those two as a new controller categories on MIDIMAPS so everyone can upload some mappings.
Please could you upload any mappings you have for the PMX-20 on the mappings page?Quote:

Hi there! As I said previously, I no longer have the TSI files I used for testing the PMX mixers. It looks like they're only supporting it's use in VDJ now (which makes sense because VDJ has it's own support staff). What I CAN do is give you a MIDI map of the product if you'd like. This will tell you how to get all the colors, how the paging works, etc. That mapping will be up to you to do, but it's not too difficult. I remember I had a cool little mapping for the slicer that was a blast.
I know that isn't ideal, but it's been a few years since I was at Gemini.
I did manage to find a manual on the Gemini website:

If you have any further information beyond that it would be useful (not just for me but anyone else interested), thank you.

Here is the MIDI spec for the PMX-20. It covers not only the basic messaging, but the paging behaviors. It also gives you the SYSEX to switch in and out of flat mode.
That is amazing, thank you!
