Vestax Spin *LIBERTY* Mapping for TRAKTOR PRO 2.0.1

[oldfashioned]

Greetings to all fellow DJs and Spin users!

I have been AWOLing for what seems like a decade now, but I have managed to find the time and craft a really stable, feature-rich and quite frankly AWESOME map for Traktor PRO 2 to go with the little Spin controller.

I am polishing some final features that will come with Version 1 and will be uploading tonight.

Version 1.0 would include

• 1. Full 'Transport' Support
• Accurate and Fun Jog Scratching
• Manual and Auto Looping
• All LEDs (incl. Gain Meters) are now working without gliches
• FX Mode 1 with Jog Cotrol (there will be Mode 2)
• 6 Fully Functional Sample Decks Integration
• Load / Play / Clear functionality for each Sample Slot from 1 through 6
• 'Sync' button blinks with thempo of the track
• When in "Sample Control" Mode, trigger buttons blink in tempo of the track in order to indicate that mode is ON
• etc

Okay... so please let me know if you guys are interested. I will be uploading the mapping here @ DJTT ONLY! I will be accepting questions through Skype and will try and help you out with whatever questions you might have. Let me know what you think!

P.S. The map works specifically well with ASIO4ALL drivers.

Soo... Cheers and

Stay Positive!

Awsome

Okay so... here we go.

This is Ver.1.0! There are a few minor yet quite distracting glitches that you might or might not find, anyway I am working on removing them.

Instructions:

1. All the basic controls work as they are intended.

2. "Auto" button sets a 16 Bar Autoloop
3. To manual loop you press "Set Cue" (the button next to Play) and then you press the In/Out button in order to close the loop. In order to disable the loop you press either AUTO or IN/OUT.

/both buttons IN/OUT and AUTO are lit when in loop/

4. FX MODE 1 is engaged by pressing the corresponding FX button for Deck A and Deck B. You control the Dry/Wet with the Jog Wheel and Parameter 1 / 2 and 3 with EQ Low/Mid and High. You scroll through the list of FX with the Nintendo Cross. You press the FX button again to exit FX MODE 1

5. SAMPLE MODE - not whis one is a little tricky

a) You enable Sample Mode for Deck A by pressing the MIC FX button. The button is then lit and the Play/Set Cue/Play Cue buttons start blinking in the tempo of the track you-re playing. This indicates that you're in Sample Mode.

b) To load a Sample/Loop into Slot 1 you select it from your browser then hold AUTOMIX and PLAY. To "flush" the slot (clear the sample) you hold SHIFT and press PLAY

Look at it that way...

Slot 1 Slot 2 Slot 3

Play Set Cue Play Cue

AUTOMIX + CORRESPONDING SLOT BUTTON = LOAD SAMPLE

SHIFT + CORRESPONDING SLOT BUTTON = DELETE SAMPLE

We can only use 3 slots since integrating 4 would be pushing it and would result in quite uncomfortable DJing experience. Don't forget that the Spin is as low-end as it gets.

The mechanic works the same for Deck B, however to enable SAMPLE MODE for deck b you press the REC button.

So. MIC FX (LEFT BUTTON) - DECK A

REC (RIGHT BUTTON) - DECK B

6. BROWSING and SELECTING - you can alternatively browse through large lists of tracks by holding shift and using the LEFT jog wheel in an iPod fashion. This will toggle Browsing Mode. When you have your track selected you load the track wherever you need it with the Nintendo Cross right or left buttons. This would automatically exit browsing mode.

I think this is it for now...

I have a Typhoon, downloaded this and it works fairly well. headphones buttons dont work, or FX.. the jog wheel scroll through library isn't functioning either. I totally understand this could because I'm using a PC... any suggestions though?

[oldfashioned]

This mapping is intended for PC! So this is defo not the problem.

However, for the sake of experimentation, I have tried using Typhoon Mapping on the Spin and it didn't work quite well either.

So I guess the Typhoon has different MIDI specs then the Spin

Also make sure you setup Traktor like this --> CLICK

Oh my god. You're back. And you mapped the sample deck.. This exact question came to my mind recently.

[Glueeater]

oldfashioned do you have a template so we can see all the features? I can't even figure out how to filter on this. Also the effects mode is not working for me, but I did not import from main menu, I did it from the controller mappings section (if that makes sense).

Oldfashioned,
Thanks for all your hard work so far. I've just bought a Spin and Traktor Pro and know almost nothing about mapping. Will this map work with a Mac? Also I notice in your preferences settings that you use ASIO4all, what do you use for a Macbook Pro?
Thanks in advance for anyones input.

nothing should be 'pc' specific... unless he's using extra software which i don't think he is - this is just a tsi - should work on pc or mac. just tweak the output routing as you would do normally re: asio4all
