gamepad mapping xpadder traktor help.... probably stupid
Posted on: 09.11.2010 by Enrique Silversmith
ok so i have a usb game pad. it looks exactly like a ps2 controller.

this is probably really dumb and i cant figure it out but.....

i go into xpadder and map out all the buttons to the usb gamepad. i saved all the presets i made for it etc.

and i have xpadder running in the background

i open up traktor go into midi mapping, click add, then i hit midi learn and press the button on the usb gamepad but nothing happens.....

i must be missing a step or something i searched these community s the interweb youtube and no bueno

ok ill break it downnnnnnnnnn

"barrow" or pay for the program xpadder

open xpadder and map all the buttons, its stupid easy u just pic a controller skin that looks like urs then u map buttons

then u go into traktor and go into generic keyboard mapping. then u map out the keys.
so like u want "play" u add that and then press "learn" the physically press the button u want traktor to assaign it too

thats it done.

i can do this before u mod anything just to try it out. thats what i did. and it works flawlessly

so overall u arnt messing with midi at all

i talk about it more in my other thread.

when i get all the parts im going to make a detailed walkthrough of this whole experience from all the parts (detailed) to the assembly and art (detailed) and most importantly all the computer settings for traktor to get everything to work!!! so anyone can clone my project but obviously make there own design and art

right now 16 buttons 2 faders and 2 knobs will cost around $120 if you have a good soldering station

the user oskars that was helping me on the thread i just posted did moderately the same thing u should check up and read his build too

smooth I want to build my own and I was just wondering what you used and if you just had to map (no firmware programing or anything?) it after you solder everything together?

You need to Right click on each button in Xpadder and select Assignment then choose what key you want it to press.

i was reading yor thread also about your build how is that going? are u going to post any pics of ur finished product?
I keep meaning to do a video of them in action but when i see Mr Golden's video's it puts me off ( Too much pressure lol)
