    Default Just got the X1...now what.....

    Yo guys.

    Just got the X1 and thinking how to combine it with my set up i'm getting together.

    I already have my Launchpad and I have mapped it with this mapping;

    http://www.traktorbible.com/freaks/m...ew.aspx?id=220

    To sum up the mapping lets me control all the basic things i'll need; play, cue, looping, syncing, EQ's, loads etc....plus it has the instant gratification FX settings.

    Anyway what do you guys think I should map the X1 too? Maybe use it for just sample decks?

    Leme know

    Don't you think you should have thought of what you wanted it to do before you purchased it?

    I have no idea what the rest of your setup is. Could use it as a mixer, advanced FX, anything really. I love my X1, but only really use it when playing internally.

    If you are pretty good at mapping, there are countless possibilities. I have mine as a mixer in MIDI mode and then can switch back to HID for FX. I even have an extra knob mapped to the volume faders when I'm not using a real mixer...otherwise I just EQ the fuc* out of my tracks.

    Use the big import button for your main mapping and the import button at the top drop down for the others.
