TPro2 Proof of concept: Beatsynced sequenced events such as auto loop rolls!

[lethal_pizzle]

Ahoy there maties. Yet another Traktor thread. Hopefully a bit different from the normal though...

I've decided to make the ultimate Maschine controller template for Traktor. It is going to make the S4 look like the obsolete old-skool throwback that it will be when my template is finished:

Any suggestion for cool shit to include are very welcome by the way.

Anyway, to get back on-topic, today I proofed the below concept on TPro2. I think I saw this ages ago used to make some lights blink sequentially to the beat. However this can be taken further:

Beatsynced sequenced events such as auto loop rolls!

You can get Traktor modifiers to show the number of beats and bars from a certain action (say hitting the 'loop roll' button). Then you can have Traktor start the beatmasher with ever decreasing lengths over up to 64 beats (using 3 modifiers as below) before turning itself off.

This could be a sick, sick feature.

Yes, I'm aware that the video doesn't actually 'do that much'. The cool sounding stuff will come later...

Here's another video, it shows tempo synced LEDs in action.

It also shows the pad mode momentary/lock system for my ..deus ex machine.. mapping

[djaerodynamite]

when the lights went throught the 4 bar phrase patter i actually let out an audible ooooooooo

it appears flashing lights still amuse me

good project tho man

[DvlsAdvct]

Think this could work with a well mapped Launchpad?

[PeteWoods]

very intrigued, considering buying a maschine at some point...

@dvls... I don't see why not
@denisps2... I hope to have a video of it actually doing something with the music soon. If I ever get the logic worked out in my head in a way I can explain then I'll do a tutorial, if not then there will be a maschine .tsi file to explore and unpick
@djaerodynamiteeeeeee... cheers

subscribing to see what happens here...

@djaerodynamite everyone loves flashing lights whether they admit it or not
