    Default NI Kontrol Z2 Mapping for Rekordbox DJ

    Has anyone on here been successful with Mapping the Kontrol Z2 to play nicely with Reckordbox DJ? There is a guy on Youtube has done it but isn't answering my questions!

    If you have or know of a mapping can you please direct me in the right direction please

    I made a quick mapping when I ended up with one in front of me a couple months ago. I didnt export it, though. Next time I am around one, I will put a quick mapping together again.

    I have one with all the basics mapped, not perfect but a good start. Not sure I can post it directly to this thread but I can send it to you when I get home tomorrow if you're still interested. Let me know!

    Ok so apparently I can't use PM yet. Im thinking its because I just registered on the forum and don't have that 'permission'. But I have been browsing on this forum for years. Anyways, email me at nitrous41@hotmail.com and I'll hook you up with the map with explanation of everything as well as the Controller Editor template you'll have to load to the Z2 first to make all the buttons act properly.

    BTW, I use to have a pair of CDJ850s and found they worked super tightly in HID with RekordboxDJ. In fact I found they felt actually tighter then The XDJ1000 mk1's I have now with RekordboxDJ! Might just be that my laptop has a harder time with the extra data going back and forth to the xdj's 'advanced HID'. Luckily I didnt get them to be use as controllers. But the 850s were great and the software gives them pretty much all the functionality of the more expensive players, especially with the Z2!

    Please upload it at MIDIMAPS so everyone can find it more easily. I would make one myself but I don't have Recordbox DJ...

    Nevermind, I figured it out and but everytime I load the file and hit "upload the mapping file" I get an this error:

    There were errors that prevented this Mapping from being saved:
    Image Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError
    Image Paperclip::Errors::NotIdentifiedByImageMagickError

    Don't know what i'm doing wrong, maybe someone can help me out?..

    Try to zip the file before uploading. Works every time.
