Hallo to everyone,
I a m a newbie in using the kontrol x1 with traktor scratch pro… (usually i used cdj 900 and they are perfect) i tryed to map it with bad results, well i was able to do nothing at all! (there are any video who explain how to map this infernal kontroller?)
anyway maybe someone already mapped the x1 as i want to map it, and maybe someone could really help me.
this is the setting i am looking for to bring my computer, the 8dj soundboard and the x1 only to play, to be a bit easier, when i do the small gigs.
with no shift pressed, as mini mixer
with shift pressed as fx mixer
please if you have it can you share it qwith me, maybe someone of you have even a better setting
Here’s my current X1 mapping mate. In a pinch you can use it by itself as a mixer. I’d be happy to go through the changes with you.
Basically the top sections swap between FX + EQ Modes with the use of 2 toggle modifiers. Parts of the Bottom Section change to mixer functions in the EQ Mode. it is quite possible to do some mixing using just the x1
I will get on to getting a diagram sorted and will post it up for you later.
here you go. might be a few things i’ve missed but i think i got most of the changes shown here. The result of several parties’ tweaking so (for me anyway) i’m quite happy with this. I can help you make some changes to your own liking as well if you need to.
Looks like a nice mapper but in all honesty am having a lot of trouble reading all those RED and Blue lines… It’s also very small and if i up the definition it becomes unreadable…
Any ways you can make your diagram more clear and easy to read ??
Thnx jester, I will try it today in the early afternoon…how can you pass from standard mode to advanced mode?
I am mostly a traditional dj, always mixing with turntables, or cdj, now to go in small gigs with my laptop and the kontroller it’s lika dream, is light and fast.
That’s what I am looking for.
In my opinion i will divide the two modes radically, as this:
a normal mode when you use it like a mixer, a pure mixer, and 4 me the add on you placed on the buttons are super cool, like on the 1,2,3 button L/R the high,med, low killah! Perfetto!
The two top fx on/off button i will use them to turn on/off the track on the monitor.
I will leave divided the 4 browsers as 2 (browse and loop) for one deck and one for the other, and when you press shift with the top browser i will use it to go through playlists.
when you have the shift pressed i would like to use all the fx range like this
But, anyway thank you very much 4 the set you did, i will try as soon as i can I am working now () and… look for me in facebook/twitter if you use it, i would like to share friendship, you were superkind!
Grazie mille!!!
Hold down shift and press left or right on to toggle the modes. So you could have for example deck a as FX and deck b as EQ if you liked.
Your mapping looks good. To be honest when i first worked on mine i added so much it got really complicated. So over a few parties i tweaked it down to be a lot simpler. Using the dry/wet as a volume knob is a good idea, i just like my filter as i dont use the faders much
Jest, do you think that whenever you find a moment you can lose your time arranging my setting?
is it possible… i dunno what i can give you in exchange… well, I work for an house label in italy, but i dunno you mix house music, you look lika other music lover… the label I am working for is truly commercial (snot the music i play, i am their designer) so…
anyway… lemme know!
wait 4 you on the social, will be great!
ok i’ve grown attached to the famous ‘freeze’ echo effect so if you want to swap from chained to advanced fx mode and vice versa you now hold shift + press fx1/fx2 (in the default/ FX mode). fx1 for deck a and fx2 for deck b. i tweaked a few functions, got rid of a couple of clashes, deleted some redundant mappings, and just because i can, now when a loop is active the whole transport section illuminates in a loop like a giant blue glowing sphincter.
here’s the updated mapping.
Hi Jester…just got the X1 basically to control my Serato Scratch Live. It came bundled with a free version of Traktor 2 LE and i have been messing with this for a day or 2. It seems like a good solution for a mobile gig.
Is it possible to use your tsi on the LE of Traktor 2 or do i need one of the Premium versions (Pro) to be able to use your mappings. I cant seem to be able to find an option on the LE to load the mappings i downloaded.
