Traktor midi mapping - using a fader to turn on a button
Hi Folks, first post here and this one relates to a TCI file for the VCI 100 by DJTT.
I have a Pioneer Wego and running Traktor Pro 2.6, but I am trying to code/midi map the FX combo function seen on the VCI 100 mapping by DJTT, seen on this link:
I have pretty much done it, except for the last component, where the fader used to control the Button 2 and Knob 2 (the volume fader on the controller) finally turns on the Button 3 when in the bottom position. I have tried a few things but can’t get it, including the ‘invert’ function and using the volume fader control as it’s own modifier. Not having much luck. If anyone has any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated.
There isn’t a definitive answer for this as it all depends or resolution of the fader but yes, combining two commands (one hold, one direct) and inverting one of them can give the same result as in the VCI special firmware where this extra note is applied at the very end.
If you look at
vid you’ll notice that I have two echo-out effects mapped at each side end of the fader.
been there done that !, But I have a limitation of not being able to set a timer and increment a value which is essential, I can only do it either on beats or blink at specific time intervals. The magical VDJ8 will change all that though if it ever gets released as you should be able to program timers, loops as well as variables and conditions just like computer code. Then I will make a website for VDJ mappings. I think that’s the best time for a battle royal as you have the advantage of better effects at the moment. But a little birdy told me that VDJ8 will have full VST support for things like turnado and glitch. Hopefully it will have AU support for macs, but that last bit’s not confirmed yet as I assume they have to pay licensing fees to apple for that ability, still trying to push atomix for information before the beta, which hopefully won’t be to far off considering BPM is next week and they will be showing it there…
The very THOUGHT of using VST’s like Glitch, Turnado (and, dare I say - Supatrigga and Instajuggle?) while spinning timecode vinyl has got me dribbling.
