S4 - Traktor Pro 2 - Alinement edit of Scamo's Extreme Jog Wheels with DJTTs S4 Map

[Alinement]

Hi Guys,

Before you start, please go back to this forum thread to find out more about Scamo's Extreme Jog Wheels Mapping for the S4 which is basically what I have built upon.

http://www.djtechtools.com/forum/showthread.php?t=43743

NOTE - If my mapping isnt working for you, you need to go into the thread mentoned above, download Scamo's 4.3, Use the big import button twice, then delete his and use the small import button for mine as mine was built around his settings.

Ive been playing around with Eans S4 mapping and liked a few of the features, but not having control over samples was the big turn off for me, so I took to Scamo's mapping and liked what I saw too, especially how open it is to add things (while not taking away a thing). I used to use Yul's mapping before the new Traktor Pro 2 updates ruined it all so ive been looking for something good to replace it.

So what I have done is taken Scamo's mapping, and added the best of Eans S4 Mapping.

For modes 1-4 (Ean's Beatmasher, Army of Me Sweep build & Freeze, Scamo's Gatorator, Scamo's Riffer) please refer back to his thread, download his original 4.3 zip which includes a tutorial on how to best map to your own liking.

These are my additions

Mode 5 - I have added the Flangerflux/FilterPulse/Reverb from Ean's map (Chained FX mode 3). but I have replaced the reverb in the chained effects with a delay T3 that is activated only by FX Button 3 (as its best added in after the original effect takes shape). The Reverb from the original has been placed into the Advanced effect slot in Unit 3 (or 4) and is controlled by the Jog Wheel (along with the Flangerflux and Filterpulse)

Mode 6 - I have added the Beatmasher/LoFi/Filter92LFO (also from DJTT S4 mapping chained FX mode 1)

Mode 7 - I have made this control just to control the Advanced effect slot in Unit 3 (or 4) for the BeatSlicer as to the exact specifications of Eans Mapping in DJTT Advanced FX Mode 1.

I looked through the DJTT mapping to make sure I got the settings exactly right in terms of values of speed of the encoder and such. So far it sounds pretty good.

I have edited Scamo's original mapping only very slightly just to tidy up a few things such as making the Advanced effects unit on applicable to Deck A or B. I found a few glitches with the original in terms of the Advanced Delay and Advanced T3Delay and have tidied them up (however they might have been glitches due to my import). Also changed the speed of the Turntable FX to fit into one bar (for house tracks).

Scamo mentioned he was going to remove the filter in Mode 4. I actually like how he has controlled the main filters in your EQs, it takes a bit of practice, but its nice to have a little more control with the Jogs for this.

I use an X1 where I have 4 decks and full FX on the main face and have programmed the midi mode for the bottom 16 buttons to work as Instant Gratification and I have programmed the top 8 knobs and 8 buttons to work like Army Of Me has her S2 Midi mode at (check her Youtube Channel). Point being, if I EXPORT my settings when I have finished programming using the big button and import it back in when I need, it seems to work just fine in conjunction. I have only finished this today, so it may have more bugs I dont know about.


Thanks for all your hard work Scamo (and by proxy Army Of Me), I know a little about mapping, but only if someone like yourself has done all the tough stuff.

Cheers

Nice work Alinement.

I'll have to take a look at it tomorrow. (sorry, no time today) I'll also take a look at the glitches you mentioned. I know my mapping isn't perfect, but it surely is getting there with great feedback like this and from the other users who have given me tips and positive critique. And that you've built upon my mapping is exactly what I had hoped for. I hope more people try to add their customer effect groupings too. This is great stuff.

Hi,

i hope this is not a stupid question, but will this mapping works with a s2 too?

[scamo]

There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers.

And my answer won't be stupid, but more than likely disappointing. No. This mapping won't work for the S2. It only works for the S4. Sorry.

I noticed the X1 mapping is not included, do you mind sharing that one as well?

i selected the TSI file but not attached.

[scamo]

Not sure what you mean. Could you explain better?

Alinement I checked your TSi but you made some modifications which have an effect on the way Scamo's effects are working. E.g. mode1 if I use your TSI the original track is bleeding through the beatmasher as if the dry wet is not working properly. For some reason I am not geting the same result with your mapping of the S4 DJTT mapping then with the original. I'll have a closer look later on.

Alignments file. I click and download it but when I view it in downloads, there is no TSI file. When I download yours scamo, there is one.

It's there just right click and save as. It's not zipped.
