**How do I have multiple Midi mappings in Traktor?**

When I see videos of Ean DJing, he has a DJM-900 Nexus, two Kontrol X1s, a Midi Fighter 3D and Twister. Now that’s a lot of mappings inside of Traktor, which leads me to my question. I was wondering how I can have multiple Midi mappings within Traktor. I’m building some MIDI controllers that I’ll use in my DJ setup, and this would really help thanks.

Yup^

Controller Manager → Device Menu → ADD → Import Other

Big import button rather overwrites all mappings in the menu by adding a new one. So if you have some effect mapping make sure to import it by Big Import (bottom left of the preferences) so that the effect settings and other pref can be updated, than add your other maps one by one from the Device Menu → ADD

And.. Make sure every mapping is assigned to the correct controller checking In and Out port in order to avoid midi conflict. You can’t assign the mappings to “all ports” when you are using more than one controller.

Also. There are few videos at NI Support Youtube channel that should come in handy 🙂
