Hercules RMX Traktor DUO TSI
I mapped this lastnite, I dont have a pix for the functions, but Ill post it shortly. Its a regular two deck setup (DUO) hehe
The only real neat features are the FX buttons & Loop/Loop Size +/-
Very nice, i just imported and it works perfectly! thanks! i just need to know how to make the mappin in general, i want to tray and make one myself, for my needs, is there a tutorial here?
Yes is there any tutorial??
If using Traktor it is very easy, here’s a very quick easy guide (so quick I may miss out something 
)
Go to preferences.
Click on midi set up, not hotkey set.
Select a control from the list you wish to re-assign, if it is not on the list click ‘add’ and select it from there.
Click on ‘learn’ to activate, move the knob/button on the RMX, then click learn again to de-activate.
That’s it, you have assigned it.
You may have to make adjustments to work perfect, they are on screen when you select the control. Just play around until you happy.
I think that’s it…
I am at work though so can’t double check if I have missed something obvious.
Sounds good. Ill give it a shot. Thanks!!
Advanced tip: For dual setting the same knob you will need modifiers (like the shift key or the capslock key on your keybord)
Traktor 1.2.1 → You can set up to 8 modifiers in 10 different numbers and use two modifiers at one single action(command).
There is where im a bit lost. Im new to traktor. Had to switch teams here cause Virtual Dj midi is the biggest pain ever. Nothing ever works at all with it. Its only been 2 weeks with traktor pro.
it’s not hard, with modifiers you can think that they are a “State” in your gear.
I have the Oxygen 8 V2 and I work with modifiers with a Sustain Pedal, whenever my sustain pedal is pressed, I enter in a different controller, with another map to all knobs, faders and keys…
Checkout the Oxygen 8 V2 thread at forum and the blog entry.
Thanks for all the great help!! This is helping the analog to ditital transistion for me a lot. Once i have the rmx figured out ill try to tackle the akai lpd8.
This is more or less finished, well the only thing is that the 4th program bank is empty as I don’t know what to do with it, I’m open to suggestions though. I’ve only got this thing off Ciar2001 yesterday, so apologies if any bugs are found.
Bear in mind this is supposed to compliment the VCI-100 and uses some functions of Ean’s mapping.
Here’s the outline:
Bank 1
Main function: Cue Jumping
The pads act as Hot Cue buttons 1-4. Top row is Deck A bottom is Deck B.
The rotary knobs control FX banks 3 and 4 in chained mode.
If you flip the Deck C/D mode on the VCI the pads now control Hot Cues on decks C and D.
Now here’s the best bit, that makes it even better than the nanoPad, turn on Juggle mode on the VCI, and miraculously the pads become Hot Cue points from 5-7 whilst the last one becomes a play/pause toggle much like in Eans We Will Rock You video.
Bank 2
Main function: Loop Control
Hercules RMX mapping
Hi folks
Here’s a mapping I’ve been working on (for a while now) for people who own a Hercules RMX and a fans of this site.
Features:
*a fader fx mode à la Ean Golden
*cue-point juggling in beat mash mode
*4 deck control
It is generally based on the regular mapping from the Hercules I’ll be working on a version with comments that explain the logic behind the mapping.
How to get to the goodies:
- There are a few main modifiers;
a. The scratch key cc41 this is a shift key type modifier
b. The Scratch key cc41 + source 1 other then (you may want to disable both source buttons!)
c. The Scratch key cc41 + source 2 this is a toggle type modifier that allows you go into a fader FX like mode (this disables most transport controls and volume faders other then the main volume and the x-fader)
i. (Please note there that in this mode there is no jog wheel deck control only a fader FX mode! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjjA0xPkXMs[/url)
ii. Once Mod 3 has been toggled on you can turn on the FX banks for deck A by hitting the scratch key cc41 + cc1, cc4, cc2, cc5 – FX bank 1, 2, 3, 4.
iii. Once Mod 3 has been toggled on you can turn on the FX banks for deck B by hitting the scratch key cc41 + cc25, cc28, cc26, cc29 – FX bank 1, 2, 3, 4.
iv. Once Mod 3 has been toggled on you can turn on the FX banks for deck C by hitting the scratch key cc41 + cc3, cc6, cc9, cc10 – FX bank 1, 2, 3, 4.
v. Once has been toggled on you can turn on the FX banks for deck D by hitting the scratch key cc41 + cc27, cc30, cc33, cc34 – FX bank 1, 2, 3, 4.
vi. Once has been toggled on you can also control 2 complex effects decks (FX bank 3, & FX bank 4) with the EQ knobs and the EQ kills.
vii. For BEATRMASHING again in mode 3 you have access to four (4) cue point keys on each deck where:
viii. keys cc1, cc2, cc3, cc9, on deck A points 1-4 respectively
ix. keys cc4, cc5, cc6, cc10, on deck B points 1-4 (I may move this)
x. keys cc4, cc5, cc6, cc10, on deck C points 1-4 (I may move this)
xi. keys cc28, cc29, cc30, cc34, on deck D points 1-4 (I may move this)
Please test it out and let me know if you like it. or if there are any major bugs by replying here.
Please see the attached file for more info. If there is any interest I’ll keep updating the file. Finally if someone can add some how to make browsing easier like this :
@ 3.20 (hopefully via jog wheel) then I’d say this thing is pretty complete.
I say is possible move deck b cue points to 28-29-30-34. two other things. How exactly do you get into fader fx mode because you say that cc41 + cc19(source 1) enters into decks c/d and enters fader effect mode also. Is the correct? will the fader effects then only respond on deck c and d? Secondly is this map based of the map on the hercules site, just wondering so we know if the other buttons correspond to their normal functions.
Thanks unkle!! Im going to give this a try this weekend.
I made a post for this its on the main page. grab that file too.
Ok finally going to get this going i hope. Got a new computer. Too many issues going on with windows.
