    Thanks a lot for the good apriori. There's a few bugs in it, especially concerning leds visualisation...

    I actually rework on a clever way to design led indicators and improve the workflow this way...

    Led mapping on the VMS4 is a PITA, but I have an idea everyboby might love (but it's a surprise

    ok sorry i have been MIA on this. After a second look I found some things that I would change based on my personal taste.

    I like the different modes, and the led color mapping is awesome.

    Each mode seems to have a lot of the same functions....but I maybe able to modify them (I suck at modifiers LOL)

    Also the effect preset mode is a little tricky, maybe you can explain how you did it so we can add our own.

    The Jog wheel sensitivity is pretty much the best I have seen, so thats awesome, but Id love to see you add the ability to use the tempo fader with the jog wheels to control effects. Maybe take away loop control on one of the modes.

    But if you are able to add more combos, maybe ean goldens, I would say give it a try. It seems like it always reverts back to the echo freeze combo....Im still getting the feel for it though.

    Thanks again for this mapping, Ill be checking for updates.

    Feel free, considering the CC Licence : Please give the credits for your mapping if you slightly modify it and share it. If not, I'll not publish the next versions and keep them to me.

    If you liked it, you'll like next version. I fixed some broken modifiers and worked a loooooot on the led mapping, making the layout clearer, and blinker... A hint : All channel as his own viewmeter with his own color considering if they are in loop or not or in red/purple/blue modes...

    I map common few functions on all mode so you can do a lot of common things without changing modes, but that if you wanna do something special, you'll have to change mode.

    The fx preset mode is changing. Next version has fixed it.

    If you suck at modifers, run away! there's something like 16 modifers in the mapping (and the only way I found to map more than 8 modifiers was to copy the 4 main modifiers in all the mappings, and to map 4 more modifiers in each mapping). If you want more info, please ask...

    Jog wheel sensitivity was one of the thing I wanna realy work on. I tweak till I found that one rotation of the jog corresponds to 266% of the knob in relative mode. When you found that, you can do whatever you want...

    Again feel free to modify. If you want to, don't forget to give credit and attribution if you share derivative work. I advices you to map this control on the touchstripes. I won't use it because I dislike the touch... So you could totaly use it without any modifiers problems.

    I fixed a minor bug in the echo freeze, wich is the echo freeze from the midifighter.
    I already map the classic beatmasher combo(retroengeneried, not copied),and working on the gater/lfo/lofi combo effect from instant grat' mapping.

    Next version 0.4 is done at 75%. Led mapping on the right size is ongoing. I'll publish it when it'll be ready.

    I loaded Traktor Pro 2 for my VMS4.1 but the jog wheels are not working properly. Do you have mapping for Traktor Pro 2 for VMS4.1? I hope you can help. Thanks.

    What do you mean by Not working properly?
    I guess you read that this mapping is focused on controllerism and that I didn't map the vms4 jog on pitchbending or scratching intentionnaly.
    If jogweel effects are off : jogweel moves the beatgrid. If jogfx are on, jogweels are mapped to manipulate fxs.
    Do you have something different?
    Btw, id you merged mappings with mine and share it on other plateforms, please consider the cc licence and show attribution or the next release will be the last.
    Dôme other vms4.1 owners found no issues on jogweels, except some modifiers issues that are fixed in the upcoming version for a better workflow.

    Random question... Does the VMS4 Traktor version come with Traktor ME aka 4 decks or just LE aka 2 deck and no hot cues?

    It realy depends of what you want to do ne whhat are those two mappings:-$
    Here's three basics questions you should ask yourself :
    1 what are the similar functions between my two mappings, what do I have toi suppress.
    2 is thre settings wich are gonna screw both mappings (modifier, fx settings,...)
    3 do I have some other way to do it with only one controller?
    Then, ou have toi draw and write a lot before doing anything.

    I'm sorry I could only give those général advices since I don't know what you want to do exactly... what does the vms4 already? what the ldp8 will do?
