MIDI Fighter Users: How do you use your MIDI Fighters?
MIDI Fighter Users: How do you use your MIDI Fighters? Posted on: 29.09.2012 by Leota Dolney So I am believeing of getting a MIDI Fighter (or two). I have a Kontrol F1 for remix decks and was going to consider either another F1 or a MF3D for remix decks....possibly a MF Classic for FX. My main controller is an X1 with the F1 for remix decks. I may get an all-in-one and add a MF to the setup for some versatility, but then again, maybe not. My mixer is DN-X1700, so I don't NEED an all-in-one, just want one for easy portability and I figure a MIDI Fighter would complement either setup nicely...or I could forgo the all-in-one and get a couple of MIDI Fighters (I have limited budget...)So, my question is, all you MIDI Fighter users, how do you use them? What is your setup? how many/what kind do you have? and what do you recommend? | |

Its really simple to use it to control the remix decks AND use another mapping like instant grat. There is a button on the side of the Midifighter 3D that switches it between HID and MIDI mode. Each of these modes are mapped out to either the remix decks or instant grat. Super versatile piece of kit. Very happy with my purchase. |

| Kellie Myrum 01.10.2012 | I made MF with twelve buttons just for Grats and mapped unit selector on my keyboard since leak of four arcade buttons. But now I use it a little different... There is one shift button that disable all current commands and turn other eleven buttons in to active mode selectors for transport, ploop and instant effects. |
| Deangelo Boender 01.10.2012 | MFC mapped for instant gratification. I was using it for transport and cue control before I got my vci, but now I just use it for instant effects. At this point, it may as just have two buttons labled "reverb" and "delay" lol |

| Random X 30.09.2012 | My MF classic is used for beat jumps and tempo bending mainly. I found that I liked to have beat jumps on arcade buttons better than on rotary encoders.. |
| Sonya Accardi 30.09.2012 | I've never tried using my MF3D for remix decks, but it is a great controller to use effects very expressively. I use it for effects and I sometimes use it in ableton with the sound packs! |
| Leota Dolney 29.09.2012 | If I get a MF, it will do one of two things: 1) get a MF3D to control remix deck to "play" it like MPC-style to trigger one-shots etc. and keep my F1 for loops etc or 2) get a MFC to control FX (e.g., instant grat) and/or play hotcues (e.g., deckalize)... not sure which way I'll go.... |
| Katelyn Hoctor 29.09.2012 | i personally use to use my MFC for fx in traktor but then got a vci100 and use fader fx so now use my MF for ableton with mad zachs drum rack sound packs |
