This is a basic scratching demo using the Traktor Kontrol S4 with the DJ TechTools Midi Fighter. I didn’t want to keep scratching on the crossfader of the S4 since I was unsure of the fader life and how to replace the fader if it did fail.
I setup Channel A’s volume to cut on when the button on the Midi Fighter is depressed. The channel volume instantly turns off after the button is released. The button acts as the fader opening and closing and is similar in nature to punch or transform buttons you’d see on older mixers.
Hi, I agree with you in the sense that the s4 crossfader doesn’t seem to be so strong, so I tried to emulate your modifier…would you mind tell us how you mapped it? The way i started was the volume fader for deck a would set the fader at zero when depressed, but i’m having trouble revert back up when my controller wasn’t depressed. I tried to have it set so the fader would always be 100% other wise, but everything got really screwed up in testing.
I had the same problem when I just mapped the button. Now, I have a modifier shift toggle that I use to “engage” scratch mode on that button. And I have a toggle that turns the volume back up when I hit the shift button + the scratch button.
