Instant gratification style mapping help (traktor)

[colin237]

Hi, I am currently working on a mapping for my livid Ohmrgb. I have mapped some of its buttons in an instant gratification style. In other words its a grid of buttons that when pressed load a specific effect, turn on this effect, change the parameters to a certain setting, and also change the dry/wet of the corresponding effects unit.

My only problem with this mapping is as follows: lets say for example that in effect slot 1 delay is currently loaded. If i press one of the buttons in the grid that is mapped to load into slot one, the first time i press it the effect loads into slot one like its supposed to, but it only turns on for a split second and then immediately turns off even if im still holding down the button. After the proper effect is loaded, if i press the same button again it works perfectly.

Can someone please give me a thorough description on how to map the effects so that this doesn't happen? Im a complete noob at mappings and I cant seem to figure this out.

Add 'FX Store Preset' command for all effect buttons.

btw, any luck with for dry/wet setup from the other thread?

Ok that fixed everything except for when i use the echo killswitch effect. This effect along with loading a new effect also changes the effect unit mode to single, maybe this is why it didnt work?? any ideas?

[Stewe]

Correct on this one! This is actually a "bug" which can be fixed by adding new command 'FX Unit Selector Store Preset' that we'll hopefully see in newer versions of Traktor.

oh ok, how did they do it in the instant grat mapping then??

[Stewe]

INSTANT gratification mapping has been created before 2.5 was out where both FX unit modes were in separate pages and this didn't appear back then. Not so sure about new updates to IG tho... I'll be checking it soon as my Spectra arrives.
