2019 Traktor Pro 3 mappings for Pioneer controllers (SX2, SZ, 1000, etc)

[djestrela]

Hi

I’m maintaining the most complete mappings for Traktor Pro 3 for all large Pioneer DDJ controllers.

There are two MIDI codes sets, so I'm maintaining both in parallel:

• DDJ-1000/800 family: https://maps.djtechtools.com/mappings/9279
• DDJ-SX2/SZ/1000SRT/etc family: https://maps.djtechtools.com/mappings/9222

Summary:

• V6.5.0: Worldwide first traktor mapping for the 1000/800 with jog Screens support. This requires BOME
• v6.3.0: First version for ddj-1000/800, mass translated from the SX2/SZ/SRT familiy.
• v6.1.0 : Latest SX2/SZ/SRT version. Major features were TP3 mixerFX, reverse Slip and page shortcuts. Previous features are MacroFX and JogFX.
• v5.2.3: This was the last SZ/SX2 map made by JaJa in 2015. All my mappings were built on top of his amazing work. In turn this was inspired(?) by the Viper SX1 mapping

I've now ported my lastest SX2 traktor mapping to the DDJ-1000, which I now made as tight as possible (Jogs, VU meters, custom buttons).
A second major change is that all FX modes are now in the front positions - accessible without shifts. Pressing the mode button cycles the top-2 pages per mode.
Other new features are a Preview Player, a Vinyl Break FX, Keyboard mode and updated Roll modes with/without quantization.

Update: just tested that v6.1.0, adapted for SX2, works fine on the SZ.

Next steps will be made on the SZ, as follows:
- port top 2x sub pages selection from 1000 back into SZ. Also latest v6.3.1 bug fixes from 1000 into SZ
- 2x sync modes, selectable, to match temposync and beatsync. parallel waveforms fixes

- use unique OSC buttons to trigger mixferFX as well
- first cut of the latest S4 mk3 pattern recorder into the SZ

Released v6.3.3 with several bug fixes and feature requests


Jog screens update: I've now coded all the functions inside BOME Midi translator Pro that generates all the screen elements of the controller (current BPM, needle, track position, etc). However it will still take a while to release this because I don't have my 1000 with me in the very short term.

PS: In this process I had to do a lot of BOME tricks that I will explain if anybody is interested (eg, higher resolution 7 bits messages, relative to absolute track position using a clock, etc)

[ErikMinekus]

I'd love to know more details about how to control the screens on the DDJ-800 and 1000.

I'd love to know more details about how to control the screens on the DDJ-800 and 1000.

Likewise

[djestrela]

the 1000 and 800 have the same midi codes OUT for the screens:
https://github.com/pestrela/music_sc...midi%20out.PNG

All these entries need 14-bit messages to operate. The needle position is 0..360 degrees, which is above the 127 limit of 7 bit messages. So it needs 2x CC messages for the whole thing.
Traktor receives 14-bit just fine, but it cannot send 14-bit messages. I've confirmed this by hacking CMDR to make a TSI with combo OUT messages. TSI loaded fine, but no messages were generated by TK.

My solution is to send the regular beat phase position 0..90 degrees in a single message to BOME (with sign), and add this to its own internal variable that is mod 360. Then BOME can output this 14-bit message in a single go to the 1000.

There was a lot more tricks required. I will test my mapping in two weeks, and explain all the other tricks once I confirm they work correctly.

Some updates on the traktor mappings for Pioneer controlers:

DDJ-1000SRT:
I've now looked at the MIDI codes for the 1000 SRT version released today, and it is quite surprising:
- the SRT pad codes match the SX2/SZ style of codes, and not the 1000RB style
- While the screens look to be MIDI (no waveforms & cover art), there is no public MIDI codes like in the original 1000 RB version
- the SRT runs in external mode, the 1000RB ran in internal mode. This means that all pioneer effects are there, a significant departure from the 1000RB. It also means the ColorFX buttons cannot be remapped - need to use the pads.

All together, it is very clear that my SX2/SZ mapping is the best starting point for the 1000SRT by far (pad codes, external mode).

DDJ-SX3 vs SX2:

This page has all the signal flows for all popular Pioneer controllers:
https://github.com/pestrela/music_sc...r/signal_flows

the SX3 now runs in external mode, just like the SZ. It means the Pioneer color FX can be used to Traktor sources. Also means that the colorFX buttons cannot be remapped.
Solution: use the current method of using the pads to enable mixerFX/macroFX, that is already on the DDJ-SX2/SZ mapping

DDJ-1000 - First Jog screens support on Traktor Pro 3 using BOME




----
This is the first traktor mapping supporting the DDJ-1000 screeens. Already working is current BPM, current tempo, time elapsed/remaining and needle position. With a shift layer you can see total time, tempo range, and loop/beatjump sizes (for 2 seconds).

This mapping is not released yet. To finish is integrating on my existing DD-1000 traktor mapping, and some bug fixes/optimizations. When released IT WILL REQUIRE bome midi translator Pro. A 100% function demo version is here: https://www.bome.com/products/miditranslator#downloads


Features demo:
00:00 Current BPM / Tempo percentage
00:24 Tempo range
00:35 Min/sec = loop size/jump size (for 2 seconds)
01:00 Shift1/shift2 = hold to preview loop sizes and total time
01:08 Toggle time elasped / time remaining
01:15 Needle position
01:21 Deck B operation
