Reply to Modifying sample trigger behavior

Hi all,

I've been a lurker for a while, but this is my first post. I recently bought an LPD8 to control my sample decks in Traktor (among other things) and I am having a tough time doing two things.

In the following video armyofme4340 is holding the cue button and hits the play button, which enables her to release the cue button with out interrupting playback of the track (between the 45 and 5 second marks). I want to know if there is a way to map this functionality to my sample decks in traktor. Basically I want my pads for each sample slot to act as triggers. But I then want to be able to continue normal playback of the sample upon pressing another button and release of the original triggering pad, much like pressing play when holding down cue on a normal track deck. Is that possible?

My other trouble is that I am not able to get my pads to light while a sample slot is being played. I have tried mapping the output in all the ways I can believe of and am still not getting anywhere. I also can't get led feedback for anything togglable. The LPD8 will respond to master pfl output and the like, but nothing related to a function state, if that state is toggled by the controller itself. It will light if the state is changed via mouse. This would suggest the problem is in Traktor to me, correct?

I have done a good bit of searching and haven't been able to find anything specific to my issues (although it has taught me how to do a lot of other useful things).

Thanks in advance for any help, Ian
