S4 Extra mappable controls

S4 Extra mappable controls

Alrighty all,

Got myself a shiny new S4 recently while the prices were low :slight_smile:

Is there a decent list of all the controls that can be mapped for extra functions? ie Shift & Something that’s not used in default which could be harnessed for extra functionality?

Cheers

AFAIK,there isn’t such a list and if there were, it would be quite short, because the S4 is pretty maxed out when it comes to what it can control. According to some recent news from the BPM show, Traktor 2.6 should give us mappers the ability to override standard functions in the controller manager. That is going to be so cool!

ooowh nice!

Scamo is it you who has done the big s4 mapping?

Haven’t you mapped a lot of extra features in but still keeping the default mapping in use?

Yes, but my S4 FX Jogs mapping is just a bunch of workarounds really. I can’t wait to get my hands on 2.6 to see what I can change/ override to make my mapping just a bit more stable and logical to use.

Man I hope you are right about the override concept for 2.6 scamo. I’ve been getting by with the nullify and re-map concept for now, but that is still fairly limited and proper LED feedback is out of the question. I’ve been sitting on some sidecar type user maps that augment the stock S4 map for things like releasing the foot switch from the iron grip of the loop recorder so it can be/do whatever you desire, and a few other little goodies here and there. If I have time to properly document what I have before 2.6 hopefully renders it un-necessary, I’ll post what I’ve got so far.
