    Talking

    Hi bcuz,

    Gonna try to be short and punctual, currently in the train

    I can say straight out that I have tried and tested every method available for mapping the track selection knob LEDs properly... But I can't find a solution to it.
    So forget it, I put them on soft takeover so one at least doesn't do any mistakes..

    The other bugs I'll try to fix..

    The loop section is going to be revamped...
    As for the fx on of for cd I dont think I will implement any other way but the master switch...

    You can manually turn off the freeze if you are not in sample deck mode.
    If you are then pushing fx unit 4 on off on either deck a or b will turn of the fx itself.

    What I will do with vu meter is secret.

    I will probably at one point adopt some of that fx fader action of yours.
    If I understand you correctly it is in the tsi so I might just as well add them if they don't make in conflict.

    And yes! I suddenly got the idea of having it rippling like that.
    Besides wen it enters the middle is exactly on the beat so it helps a bit with the precision in loud environments! Light travels faste than sound.. Although I'm not sure about the latency of the LEDs, but it looks pretty spot on!

    I'll get 1.0 up today the mapping is taking time loading up now... Pretty damn huge file.. Better split it

    I don't have much time to map the loop section today.
    So I don't know if I can go through with implementing all the extra stuff in version 1.0 ;(

    Definitely 1.1 but first I wanna play with the machine!

    EDIT:

    No time to finish 1.0 today...
    Unfortunately... I encountered a rather irritating problem with the led feedback on the loop controls... It worked so well when only 4 loops were mapped... now it is 8 and its quite bugged.
    I will move over to plan two in keeping the clip stop functions separate on modifier 3.
    Anyway for now heres the almost finalized mapping...
    Oh and I don't believe I fixed any bugs...

    Many known issues though...
    like the switch for switching between <1 loops and >1 loops is the button left of loop size 4 and it doesn't light up:9
    the button under that is a re-trigger for both loops and cuepoints...

    Thanks a lot for all the hard work you put into this map and for sharing it with us (ok, until now it seems that it's only me, but anway )!!! Since I need on saturday a mapping I feel comfortable with and I know how it works exactly, I started from this latest version a new branch. As soon everything is working how I like it I will upload it in this thread (if you don't mind?!)...

    Exclamation Finding it impossible to edit the first post...

    ... I decided to quote it instead

    This is I daresay the most comprehensive mapping as of yet, or will be once I have finished it!
    This IS a beta, I call it 0.8. (because 24 buttons are not mapped)
    There however to my knowledge no bugs!

    Windows users watch out, you need the send monitor state fix... if it's not fixed

    Anyway here you go!
    I'll upload a demo vid of it once it's finished.
    Until that time, feel free to study the "manual" (Oh yes!) and try it out

    (soz the zip file is 2.9mb and the uploader failed, used dropbox instead)

    http://db.tt/FYI2YGz

    Download if you find out you need the manual as well.

    The tsi only is attached to the post
    I have completed v 1.0

    It can be found attached.
    Documentation is not updated so explore the mapping on your own. Many of the features documented are still there and many have changed.

    Enjoy!

    After no luck on a few other TSIs (and not really remembering why I decided against this one), I'm going to give this a whirl at home.

    Have there been any significant changes or updates lately?

    Thanks,

    Very nice looking, but I was hoping for some sample deck action specifically. How difficult do you think it would be for someone with little mapping experience to modify what you have to instead point those to Decks C / D / Sample decks?

    Thanks, and yea I noticed I am not using the sample section in traktor that much. It is not entirely as good as I wished it were. It's tedious to sort samples and songs into different crates etc.

    Anyway, onto what you were wondering about.

    Point what to deck C/D?

    The effect section?
    The effect section might be slightly hard to map to deck C/D one thing is that I have made the mapping into modules. So you can easily find everything you need to map. So basically you have to sort everything in the Effect module after what deck their are mapped to and changes those from A/B/ to C/D.

    If you want to change the Main Deck mapping to C/D or make C/D the default of the EQ you have some work to do. Changing modifier 3-1 reqs to 3-0 and vice versa is one idea. Secondly you have would have to expect looking for fixes for many bugs that might rise.

    If I got a concrete Idea of what you want I could help you out more easily. If it is quickly done I might even help you do it.
