little problem mapping FX on Traktor

[tintirintin]

I am using F1 on MIDI mode to map some effects, the idea is just tapping on one button and the effect goes on instantly.


What I do is adding the following mapping for each controller-button I want to trigger an effect:

1. Effect Selector - to choose the effect
2. Knob - to select the know position
3. Button (FX button) - to activate the effect (both HALT and DIRECT mode)


The problem I face is that the mapping actually does the job, BUT not quite:
- If I used the same effect immediately before, it works well.
- If another preset is selected and the Button (Fx button for ON OFF) is off, when I press the button of the effect gets selected but the on off button gets active just for an instant
- Then if I use it again or if I double tap then it works well


Since the problem seems bit difficult to explain I added a video (gif) to show this weird behaviour:
In the gif first I tap 3 times the same effect and you can see how all 3 buttons get on simultaneously, it works well.
After that I tap 3 times but not the same effect, I switch between different effects and it has a weird behaviour.

Has anyone had a similar problem?

Thank you!!

Add FX Store Preset command to your button mappings

Add In --> FX Units --> FX Store Preset

WOW! It worked!!
Thank you for the answer!!
I just don't understand why it happens and why "FX Store Preset" makes it work

Glad to hear it!

The Store Preset will store effects in it's ON STATE allowing you to insert already activated effects.

This is basically a snap shots for effects. Check out this vid to learn more about this feature.
