Traktor mapping tips, tricks and questions.

what stewe wrote looks like it should work and he's right about using values 1,2,3,4 and not 0,1,2,3 as i said else the first one isn't likely to ever light up an led afaik you'd just need to make sure you pressed at least one of the layer select buttons before using any others ofc as the modifier will be set to 0 by default and so none of the other buttons will do very much...

still no luck mate... the only way i can get this working is by routing the led output of the particular mod to beat phase.. however a blinking led is not what im looking for as it always tends to fall on either the on or off once changed and looks a bit messy...

[the_djs]

yeah thanks again... the modifiers work great its just the led thats not working as hoped...

[Stewe]

You need to set your modifier LED to same value in controller range (1-1, 2-2, 3-3, 4-4) as corresponding modifier state for each of four buttons.

[the_djs]

yes that worked.. thanks a million.. sorry to be so confusing im just past the noob stage of mapping.. would you know much about how to get the led to function in different colours?? sorry to be a pain

[zestoi]

that's the easier bit - you just tweak the midi range for the 'out'. set the max value to what you want to be the 'on' color and min for the 'off'

[the_djs]

stewe you were right from the very start i just needed to set midi range to 0 min and 1 max... thanks again

You can still map it M1 0,1,2,3 and add another modifier (M2-direct1) to position 0 of M1. Then add M2=0 to 1,2,3 of first modifier. Think of that

That is a basic setup for four beat position. 1,2,3,4

This button is mapped with one modifier which is toggling states of commands for popular drama sweap (iceverb-peak filter-reverb) and echo freeze. Set effect parameters to button auto repeat so once it's pressed, and on hold, those knobs continue to increase amount of D/W and effects till max is reached.

First press: Hold for drama sweap. Echo out on release (inverted).
Second press: Switch of echo out and ready.



There are also three banks for different drama settings.

This fader has different mappings for each side from middle position. When fader is in middle nothing pretty much happens, by moving it up it loads and switch on F92 and a little of Reverb and further is moved it modulate those effects. While sliding it down, it loads Masher and Transpose and modulate those effects in to sweap. I also mapped Masher rate to jogwheel and echo freeze when fader to max up or down position.



I gave example with this effects but it can be mapped for any command in Traktor.

Cheers!
