I am not using the S4 but the Hercules Steel and TPRO. All the effects work fine on deck A but will not work on the other decks. It is looking like the FX banks are not being routed to those other decks.

Also, the top row of buttons trigger effects. Don't think it's supposed to do that but these effects work on the other decks, but not deck A. Therefore not allowing me to use the top row for holding a sound.

Ideas?

sounds like you haven't enabled 4 banks mode! read point 5 of the 1st post in the MF sticky entitled "using the midifighter in menu mode"

I'm trying to map this to my MPD24 and ended up scratching my head. Is there any help how to do this manualy out there.

find the midi map that fatlimey and flashflooder have posted somewhere, then set the pads of your mpd to produce those notes on 4 different pages, or however many decks of the mapping you want to use.

thought I did that correctly...

I receive only two options though when in mode #5. using the bottom two left and right corner buttons, I get only all 4 rwo #3 buttons to light or none of them. I do not receive the option where only two are lit. Is the external mode where all 4 are lit what I want? If so, I had done.

Thanks for the help!

Try and do the firmware update again. The wrong file was on the DJTT server for some time and some were unable to select between external and internal.

I was having a heck of a time updating it. Limey walked me through a walkaround way to do it instead of using the mf update file. I'm not sure if that then loaded the bad firmware or not...

Does this relate to internal and external mixing? Because I am mixing externally if that makes difference.

Ahhh, I finally got it! Don't know what I did, but I got it! lol

Hi all,

Im using a trigger finger instead of the actual midi fighter =/ I'm noticing I'm not getting the combo effects (for example the transpose effect on the trail end of the 4 button beat mash) also I cant bank the effect on the top row and it only seems to be working on deck A...

Also is there any way to toggle between the midi fighter settings and layout and the the standard S4 settings and layout during a live set?

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Welcome to the forum, but please read through the thread before posting as this has been answered several times.

The reason it won't work is that the 4 bank mode required for this mapping is built into the firmware of the midi fighter. The only way to replicate it with anything else is to create a set of 4 pages on your controller with the same notes as the 4 different banks on the midi fighter.

In terms of toggling layout, you can create a midi command for layout select if you are using preset layouts.
