I picked up a x1 recently and love most of the functionality out of the box. It’s perfect alongside my timecode setup.
I have 2 changes I would like though:
Have the controller in hotcue mode as the default automatically, as I have to press hotcue every time I start traktor.
Is there any way to make it so that to load a new track you have to press shift before you click down on the track select knob? I have hit it by accident once or twice trying to set a loop.
I don’t know where to start, like I said, I’m really new to this stuff. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. If these 2 functions were changed, I believe this would be the perfect controller mapping/setup for me.
Ok to make SHIFT+LOAD your load deck command, you will have to sacrifice the DECK/BROWSER mode toggle, as that is the default command for that.
So to change the command, find Load Selected (Deck A/B) Click on “Learn” Hold Shift & Click The browser knob. Mapped. Repeat for Deck B and this part is done
Now you will have a command clash with Browser/Deck View toggle. If you left it, when you go to load a track with the new SHIFT+LOAD command, the view would toggle between deck view and browser mode as well. No Good
So you need to delete or change that command to something else.
I mapped the normal click in on the browse knob to switch between browser mode now.
I was poking around trying to find out how to change the default setting of the hotcue mode button, but couldn’t find it. Is it more complicated than that? haha.
