S4 + Midi Fighter

[Paulo]

Hi,

Just curious to see how many people out there have used this set up and what they have done/think of it?

I currently use my Midi Fighter for all 8 Hot cue's on both decks, works nicely!

Got mine today, works fine with the DJTT mappings I tried, but I'm going to do my own.

I can't get it to work at all!

Have you contacted the store Stuart?

I tried, no response

I tried, no response

I'm using just a slightly modded version of Ean's Mf_1_1 mapping it works spot on for me, i had a slight problem at the start when i imported it it knocked the soundcard out, but i just quit TPS4 and restarted it, works grand now! :/

I would really like to see a TPS4 mapping though, i'm completely new to mapping controllers so I find it relatively hard to grasp! *tear* lol

Anyone interested in collaborating and comming up with a perfect companion mapping for the S4?

I have some ideas, but it would be cool to get collective input.

I'm still pondering mappings for mine. I was considering not having any sample or cue functions on it, but using it as a FX machine, but that feels like a waste of good arcade buttons. curious to hear others ideas.

I personally think that is a great idea. That's actually what I was thinking myself.

And about the buttons being a waste? I don't think so I think that those buttons are top notch, and their rapid-fire action can come in really nicely when using them to activate effects.

I don't normally cue point juggle. That's just me. Of course, on the fly, I do once in a while if I think of something really creative to fit into my set in the moment. And I think 4 hot cues (3 actually, since I usually reserve Cue 1 for the first downbeat) is perfect for me.

I don't know why, but I prefer to let tracks play through, and use effects to remix and "color" on the fly. Loops rolls, slicers, filters, gaters, flangers, etc. And because I like to use effects completely in the moment without any planned thought behind it, having idiot-proof button/triggering system during an insane performance makes it reliable. And pro. It certainly looks a ZILLION times cooler than any external effects unit out there. Kaos Pad in second lol.
