[VDJ 7.4] Novation launchpad S mapping advices - how to improve it?

hi guys, i’ve been working for a long time on a new launchpad mapping for virtual dj 7.4
Unlike the great majority of mappers i’ve seen this one is thought to be used IN ADDITION with your console-like controller. That’s why it is missing of some basilar buttons like play, sync and loop.
Since i’ve spent lots of days on it i won’t release it for free, but you’ll can buy it for very little money (i’ve not decided yet but it’ll be like 3/5 euros)

Features:

  • 3 banks structured mapper (main / remix / lightshow)
  • not dispersive, intuitive functions and lights
  • console compatible (if you move the volume faders from console, launchpad lights will change accordingly and so on)
  • useful vu meter for both deck A & B
  • global level meter lightshow bank

Working on:

  • adding shift 1 use: switch between sample funcion (stutter/hold)
  • adding 4th bank with 8 band equalizer (maybe in version 2 :stuck_out_tongue: - long time project)
  • finish bank 2 before release

Screenshots:

Bank 1 (MAIN):
cues are green when free, red when set - hold cue shift and press the cues you want to release
with cue sync shift active cues will be automatically synced with the other deck when used

Bank 2 (CUES / EFFECTS):
same as bank 1 for the cues

Bank 3 (LEVEL METER LIGHTSHOW - changes also with volume faders):
no pressing functions - visual feedback only

now i have to finish the bank 2 adding some features, which is thought to be a live remix bank (so with cues effects and samples maybe) so, since i have tons of ideas i wanted you to decide which are the best useful

any ideas are:

  • 4 horizontal effect sliders (buttons 1 to 6 each line)
  • 8 effect activation buttons (7-8 each line)

  1. same as 1 but with 4 effect modify buttons (on button 7) and 4 activation buttons (on the 8th)

  • 4 horizontal effect sliders (button 1 to 5 each line)
  • 4 effect activation buttons (6 each line)
  • 8 sample pads (7-8)

Opinions, critics and advices are well accepted :slight_smile:
Next week i’ll make a video tutorial on how this mapper works :stuck_out_tongue:

Cheers :wink:
