**Edirol PCR-300 (compatible with -500 & -800) - TRAKTOR (Pro/Scratch/2) - Very Basic**

Since I could not find a decent mapping for my Edirol PCR-300 for Traktor Scratch Pro 2, I decided to start my own.

I _only_ use it as a mixer in my setup. (I have 2 turntables set-up as timecode, so I don’t need cue-ing / pitch faders (yet)).

Furthermore, I have just started DJ’ing, I still even have to learn how to beatmatch, so I can be called a total novice.. 🙄

I bought this (imo awesome) device because it has: knobs, buttons/pads, faders, a x-fader and keys. And ofcourse because it’s cheap!

I am planning on adding features when I need them. (since I’m just starting out etc.) But if any of you have some ideas for missing features, I will add them!

My goal is to map this controller so I can use all the folder/browse & mixer options, so that I don’t need to touch my laptop while DJ’ing.

Here is what I got so-far:

Greetz,

I nearly deleted this thread for spam because I saw Edirol, but was thinking Adderall. We get lots of drug spam on here!! 😮

How am I even supposed to load this onto the PCR when the editor program doesn’t support the file type this guy uploaded? Why the fuck is midi so fucking confusing? Jesus christ it’s a piss off.

**Brilliant**

This is excellent. Cant believe how well it works. For anyone who doesnt know how to import it, go to settings then at the bottom click import.  
I cant wait to add some fx buttons on this.  
Thanks a lot

This is a great little controller & MIDI interface …

Seeing this post is tempting me to add my PCR300 to my live/DJ rig …

**Confused**

Im using an edirol 300 with a saffire 6 usb interface and a midi cable from the midi out on the controller to the midi in on the interface.

The interface recognises the midi signal (midi signal light is flashing) but CTRL light in traktor is not lighting up and once i import the map nothing happens.

PLEASE HELP!
