    Default NEED help for modifiers

    Hi!

    I'm searching a way to have a modifier state stuck to 1 until I release the last button....

    If I have 4 buttons triggering different value for the same fx and I want those 4 buttons also HOLDING mod 1 = 1 for example.The problem is if I realease one button it bring the mod value to 0

    I know a way to avoid it by having the value set to 1 for the 1st button and 2 for the 2nd etc... but I need 0 to have the fx UNIT free 1 locked to deck A 2 locked to B 3 locked to deck C and 4 locked to Deck D so I can't use this method.

    ANyone has an idea????

    THANKS!

    you should just need to use 2 modifiers.

    [but 1] = hold M1=1
    [but 1] = condition(M1=0) M2=1
    [but 1] = condition(M1=1) M2=0

    [but 2] = hold M1=2
    [but 2] = condition(M1=0) M2=1
    [but 2] = condition(M1=2) M2=0

    [but 3] = hold M1=3
    [but 3] = condition(M1=0) M2=1
    [but 3] = condition(M1=3) M2=0

    [but 4] = hold M1=4
    [but 4] = condition(M1=0) M2=1
    [but 4] = condition(M1=4) M2=0

    then the rest of your commands are relying on M2=1, you might need to swap around the second and third commands setting M2 eg.

    [but 1] = hold M1=1
    [but 1] = condition(M1=0) M2=0
    [but 1] = condition(M1=1) M2=1

    i don't think traktor offers "not equal" the other option is to make an aggregate device, that's just a new mapper for the same controllor as modifiers are local to the mapper not the device. It would be good if they had global modifiers as well though. Although Stewe explained it to me at one stage, but I never tried it... I'm sure he will chime in.

    Hey dudes,

    Just add another Generic Midi device - it should offer you another set of eight modifiers. Than you can arrange your modifier setup in this new device.

    Hope that does it
