Hi Folks,
Please forgive me if this is a daft question but I'm very new to mapping and have hit an early hurdle!
Current setup is an S4 MK1 and 2 x F1's and Maschine Mk3.
Since introducing the Maschine MK3 into my setup running into Deck D, I now have a spare F1.
I upgraded to the new Traktor Pro 3 this morning and looking to put the spare F1 to work by mapping the new Mixer FX to the F1.
So, I've created a basic map which uses the F1 pads to choose the type of mixer effect (Delay/Filter/Noise etc) then I've mapped the knob 1 encoder etc. to the dry wet of the effect. All works no problem.
I also want to map the F1 mute button to kill the mixer effect so that I have an instant kill switch rather than having to turn Knob 1 back to the centre. I've mapped the button to Mixer FX On - toggle and it works great...
Now here is the issue, once i've killed the effect using the toggle button, i need to be able to turn Knob 1 back to the centre but as soon as I turn it, it switches the mixer effect back on. Likewise if i map an ON/OFF button for the mixer filter on the S4, turning the filter knob on the S4, causes it to go live again.
The behaviour only seems to occur with the mixer effects. I tried mapping a standard FX unit the same way and it works no problem, the effect is only LIVE when the unit is switched ON, i.e. I can turn knob 1 back to centre and it doesn't put the FX live.
I've tried to play around with modifiers - my Mixer FX ON/OFF button also toggles Modifier #1 value to 1/0 and I subsequently set Knob 1 to only work when the modifier is set to 1. This works in the sense that it kills Knob 1 so technically i can move the physical knob back to centre but obviously the software is still at 100%... also tried playing with the soft release (can't remember exact name) but this also doesn't give the desired effect.
Any help much appreciated, I'm well and truly stumped and this has been driving me mad all day!!
