Reply to MF classic Instant Grat

Alright So I'm trying to use a MF classic along side my twitch and am having issues just getting the MF to work by itself. I figure this would be a great way of controlling effects, but have spent all today and yesterday reading on mapping topics and haven't really figured out how to do this. I've got it to finally trigger effects, but it's rather odd and doesn't trigger how it is demonstrated. The effects triggered are all over the place when I try to operate this thing and don't really work as how I see the Instant Grat mapping demonstrated. Tried to use it for a gig last evening in frustration, but didn't happen.

I'm operating Traktor 2 on a Win 7 in case of inquiries.
