Xone 1D L.E.D. Traktor Deck focus mapping help!
Hi all,
I have a Xone 1D mapped exactly how i want it, with one small exception!
I read BradCee’s article, which covered pretty much what I had done to no avail. I’m using the 4 buttons at the bottom as deck focus select buttons, but really want to have l.e.d. feedback on the controller to i don’t loose track of where I am. Surely this can be achieved within Traktor??
AFAIK Traktor does not send output led info when it automatically changes deck focus. If you do every focus manually, you can send output led info to whatever buttons you want, updating them as you manually change focus.
i do change focus manually…?
For what it’s worth, I never figured it out either. Interested to know if it can be done.
Well is there a situation (apart from loading a new track into a deck) where Traktor would change focus automatically? Can’t think of one right now (but that doesn’t necessarily mean much), so I think you could just map the change in LED output to your load buttons.
Technically no, but I suppose it is possible that the button is clicked hard enough to trigger the midi signal but not the LED (or vice versa). There are also accidental mouse clicks which will change deck focus.
Hm, I don’t fully understand what you mean. If you map a change in LED feedback to the same CCs as you map track loading, how should the stuff you described happen?
Granted, you have a point there (even though I personally prefer to not touch the computer at all while DJing with Traktor).
With my 1d I use 1 button at the bottom for deck focus. All you have to do is set it as global. Then you can switch threw the decks manually and still have the other 3 buttons to map to something else. LED will be on all the time for the 1 button.
Of course! It’s called auto mode. 
I take it you use manual or internal clock mode…
The options are on the clock panel (little metronome icon at top left). I used to use auto mode, and tried to map my leds- quickly realized the auto focus changes don’t send led info, though manual selection works fine.
I’m referring to no LED feedback. I was saying, I never got LED Feedback to work like I wanted it. Basically each button w/ an LED acts like a toggle by default. I never took it any further.

Same here, but I am not smart enough to disable the screen saver and to put it simply, I have dick fingers. 
Im still no further on, as far as I can see i am sending the right midi to the right light, it can’t be that hard but seems to be impossible!
ok, i now have the leds coming on, but not 100% the way i want. i.e. when i press one button, the right led comes on, but when i want to change deck, i have to press the first button again to turn it off, then select the other deck.
how can i send ‘note off’ messages to the other leds with the same button. my heads not working today
This may sound like a cheap way out but I’ve left mine this way. each button working as a toggle, you can actually control multiple decks with just 1 button push. e.g sync 3 decks to the master. or start 3 ‘cued’ tracks simultaneously with just 1 button push.
Sounds like you mapped your Buttons with Mode “HOLD”, change to DIRECT (in Traktor)
take a look at this
I have a 2D, I’ll just map it out and post it here if your cool with that. To be clear, you want the bottom 4 buttons to control deck focus? A B C D or do you want A C B D.
could it be that easy!haha never even thought of doing it that way…does it knock the other LED/s off? will try tonight
