Reply to Dicer + Traktor Issues
Dicer + Traktor Issues Alright, been using / playing with my new Dicers and Traktor Scratch Pro using the mapping file they just recently posted on here. So far, it works very similarly to how it is shown off in the video but I'd like to address / point out some problems I'm having with it. The cue point page of commands works great. Each button performs exactly as it should, with LEDs turning on and off as they should as well. The mash/loop page of commands is not working the way it should, however. According to the explanation provided by the video/article, hitting buttons 1-5 by themselves should activate the Beatmasher effect with 5 levels. When I hit these buttons, they cause the Effects unit in Traktor to load the Delay effect with the correct corresponding parameter levels. Although this problem is occurring, triggering loops by holding the page button and hitting the buttons is working properly with no issues. On the effects page, I am running into issues similar to the ones mentioned in the previous paragraph. Whenever I hit any buttons, instead of triggering the effect the article/video says they should, they cause Traktor to load a different effect / parameter level. For example, the article says that Button 1 should trigger a Beatmasher effect. On my system, hitting Button 1 causes Traktor to load Delay into the first effect slot. Button 3, which is supposed to trigger a Filter-LFO, instead loads and triggers the Phaser Pulse effect. Buttons 4 and 5, which are supposed to trigger the Delay effect w/ different parameters, instead load and trigger the Flanger Flux effect. It should be noted that while the problematic buttons are loading effects different than what they should, they are loading the correct parameter levels. I.E: hitting button 1 loads Delay instead of Beatmasher, but the effect level matches what is shown in the video from the article. Is there some extra setting up of Traktor that I need to do? I set my effects units to mimic the ones shown in the video. 4 Unit mode with Unit 1 set to Chained with Beatmasher, Slicer, and Filter-LFO loaded, Unit 3 set to Advanced with Delay loaded. This is my first post here so please let me know if I posted in the wrong spot or I'm retarded and didn't search the community deep enough for a resolution to this problem. Thanks in advance! | |
