    Default Changing midi notes 'pre-software'

    Hi guys,
    I've been mapping stuff for traktor for a while and I was wondering if there is some soft- or hardware wich would allow me to alter the midi message of a controller or 'clone' it. In addition, I'm also looking for a way to alter midi notes using a different controller.
    I'll give an example: I'm playing Live and Traktor on 1 mac with a push and thz S8. I also use the F1 (Tekken mapping ) alongside.
    It would be cool to pack my Lpd8 and use its buttons to change my controllers. I would want to swap the midi output for the F1 completly so it would control Live with one bank and traktor with the other.
    Another reason I would want this solution is of course the ability to map almost modifier free in traktor.

    Pretty sure this is a long shot,but worth a go either way.

    my midimasher can do that. if you routed the F1 and lpd8 thru it then u could have buttons on the lpd8 that switch pages or functions on the F1. but then youd lose all the cool rgb/remix deck colourings on the F1 in HID mode so guess i woudnt...

    you do sort of have to write some code tho, in LUA. you call functions to setup the behaviour so its a bit of a learning curve. mostly you dont have to worry about it being LUA tho you just add a few function calls. telling it what to do with what midi input/output on what "page"

    edit: btw about the lpd8... it has an issue where even if say traktor sends it a message to turn a pad on, after u press it and release the pad goes off even if u actually wanted it to remain on. midimasher has builtin support to fix that as was bugging the hell out of me a few years ago... if u enable the fix when a pad is released mm checks to see what the last incoming midi message was and if it was non-zero then it lights the pad again so u never even notice...
