MF Instant Gratification Mapping v1.0.3

[Skerrplunk]

make sure to import the effect settings when you import the tsi (using the large import button on the bottom left of preferences). in some cases you need to do this import twice for the effect settings to load correctly.

flashflooder, I had imported the tsi file initially by hidding the add then import button under the midi fighter in the controller manager. I made sure the ports for all the decks were set to the midi fighter both in and out.

I then clicked the import button at the bottom left of preferences and loaded them again. This caused my S4 settings to disappear and the S4 stopped working. I closed Traktor and loaded it again and the S4 works but the effects at the top look different (I suppose this is normal).

My questions are:
1) How do you import midi fighter mappings without erasing S4 settings?
2) Like others in this thread, the effects aren't as described in the picture for me:

bottom row: left to right:
Flanger flux - Flanger flux - T3 Delay - LOFI

2nd row from bottom: left to right:
Delay - delay - delay - delay

3rd row :
iceverb - beatmasher - filter - gather (shape)

How do I get this to work like it should? Thanks!

Guys, if you've changed your mappings for the S4, or you're using other controllers then first use the big export button and save your controller mappings somewhere. Then use the big import button (look in my sig) and import the MF mapping TWICE. Restart Traktor. Then reimport your backed up mappings using add>import instead of the big import button.

If you haven't changed your S4 mapping then you don't need to back up, as unplugging the S4 then plugging it in again should reload the default mapping.

INDEED!

Use the import button at the left bottom corner of the configuration screen!

If you don't do that, the buttons will map to different effects.

Where can we find more about the reason behind this?

[fullenglishpint]

it's because of the order in which settings are imported and applied. The mappings go in before the effects, so if the effects are in the wrong order or not all enabled then different ones apply. Hence the need for a double import, and hence the fact that the other import method doesn't work because it only imports controller mappings.

In the instant gratification mapping, it's set up so that certain buttons load and activate preset fx.

How do i set, save, and then map to midi my own fx settings?

Hi there, I just bought a MidiFigher off DJTT about two weeks ago and I use it with TS1.2.7

I can't get the mapping to work properly with Deck B.

Have tried numerous times importing using the button below the .tsi twice.
Imported all settings except GUI layout
Have set all ports to 'midi fighter'

Deck A works fine as far as I can tell.

Pressing buttons while in Deck B only ever seems to activate Effect Bank 1 FX (when pressing top 4 buttons, and 2 FX on the fourth of these...) but never 3 FX or 4 FX.

So as an example, the row of buttons second from the bottom triggers the beat masher fine when Deck A is in focus but when Deck B is in focus all the buttons do is turn on the FX banks for Deck A and turn off any currently enabled on FX for Deck B. Deck B FX 2,3&4 never get activated.

I've racked my brain, compared mapping parameters from Deck A to B for the same beatmasher functions... man I just don't get what I could be doing wrong and I will go to bed feeling defeated by technology..... ;(

Couldn't be the firmware could it? The MF is only a couple of weeks old...

read my reply in post 26 of this thread.

- penny drops -

I had though before 4 banks mode was referring to the # of effect banks enabled in the Traktor settings.

Now I see that not only does Traktor need to be setup for this but also the MF itself via a little on-board hardware mapping config via it's 'Menu mode'.

So then, thanks for the response and for any other N00bs getting frustrated out there read this before asking further....

For some reason when I use the beatmasher, it holds for 4 bars then appears to move a bar and keeps repeating, I dont know why this is happening its really annoying and Im contemplating going back to the deckalized focus for mashing up.
