**Craving for midi mapping Denon MC3000 for Rekordbox** Hi guys 🙂, This is now couples weeks that I am looking for the midi mapping for my **Denon DJ MC3000** to play on **Pioneer rekordbox** _(I am guessing the one of MC4000 or MC6000 could work as well)_. I always used Traktor and it works well, but Pioneer Rekordbox got a better music management, few things that I would love to try. The midi map for traktor is _.tsi_, I got some midi mapping for virtual dj as well in _.midimap_. But rekordbox is expecting a file _.csv_. Please can anyone help me to find this file 🙄? I looked everywhere online (even in PioneedDJ) but It was impossible to find for me 😒 I thanks in advance every tip that can help me 👍 John ---

Even if you find or create one by yourself you won’t be able to map your jog wheels… Yup, they locked out essential commands like that to their own controllers… 😞 ---

But after hours looking for mapping files and how to trick the applications to make them work, I see it s way to complicated 😑😑 So last thing I can do is to try to find a better music manager than itunes, with multi-tag (proposed by rekordbox) 🕶 ---

You need to map pretty much everything else, then go back and modify for the jogs. If I had an MC3000 on hand, I would create one for you. ---

Tks a lot man. I followed the topic “How To Hack Rekordbox DJ To Use Any Controller’s Jogwheels” and understood how to trick the system to make it visible in rekordbox.😃 I got now 1 file extracted from resources of the app, it’s the midi mapping of _PIONEER DDJ-SX.midi.csv_ that I renamed as _MC3000.midi.csv_. And I got a file that I dl during my long researches on the subject, it’s the mapping for serato _Denon MC3000.midi.xml_. The hardest part is to report the hexa number. I discover than _9043_ and _9243_ are the **Play/pause** in deck 1 and 2. But to find the others number and the output number it’s 😱😱😱 ---

I finally made it works. I am currently mapping individually the buttons and knob. Do you know by any chance how to combine 2 buttons ? Exemple in traktor to delete CUE1: I press SHIFT + CUE 1, but here I cant map 2 buttons in the same time, it’s either SHIFT or CUE1… Any ideas ? ---

I mapped most of the tricks, without the one we need 2 buttons, and one of the most basic thing: 😆 ---

> [@MrChill](#): > > I mapped most of the tricks, without the one we need 2 buttons, and one of the most basic thing: 😆 Unfortunately there are no modifiers, so if the controller’s shift button is just a midi button and not an actual layer shift button, than it wont work. 😞 ---

With a little help of Bomes MIDI Translator you will be able to setting up Shift button with ease 😉 Super cool peace of software. ---

> [@the\_bastet](#): > > Unfortunately there are no modifiers, so if the controller’s shift button is just a midi button and not an actual layer shift button, than it wont work. 😞 That’s isn’t a big problem, I don’t delete cue that often. When there are set, I keep them in. Even I don’t use them all the time. I have been able to map the 8 cue in the 4 buttons, that’s was a great news 🙂) ---

Indeed I tried to use it but this app is way to complicated. I have no idea what is the value, the note and so on … I spent hours mapping my controller to have fun and don’t want to spent more hours just for a function (delete cue number) that I may use 3 times a year. So that s ok for now. But thanks for the tip tho. ---

Hi, I finally mapped most of it, and it works well. But it was impossible to map MIDI out, even when I followed my MC3000 guide in hex, the controller didn t show any light. At list I got the commands that’s the most important … ---

Isn’t the “jog turn” mapping command still locked out and exclusive only to Pioneer controllers? If so, what’s the point of using MC3000 with Recordbox DJ? ---
