Traktor mapping issue - X1
Traktor mapping issue - X1 Posted on: 02.11.2011 by Vanna Hochstadt Hello,Basically I'm having a bit of a tiny issue, but still some what bothersome. The way I mapped this button on my X1 is the following: When I push shift + effect 3, the gater effect will load into effects 1 and 2 (in advanced mode) with different presets for each parameter. The problem is that not all of the parameter presets load correctly. For them to load correctly, I would need to push the button a second time. Ex: The preset for the shape parameter on gater effect 1 should be at 0.50, however, when I push shift + effect 3, it may load at 0.2 (as an example). I will continue to hold the shift button and then push effect 3 once more and this parameter will then load at the correct preset of 0.5. Does anyone know why this is? I would rather not have to push the button twice. Thanks! | |

| Vanna Hochstadt 06.11.2011 | makes sense. thanks! |
| Samual Ogura 05.11.2011 | Glad it worked for you! Invert uses the MIDI NOTE OFF command sent by the controller to trigger whatever command is mapped to it instead of the NOTE ON signal. So in this instance, the NOTE ON (push down) loads your desired effects and then the NOTE OFF (release) sets the values. It's still technically 2 different occurrences for sending commands, but only 1 button push. |
| Vanna Hochstadt 05.11.2011 | what does invert actually do anyway? what is the purpose of using this option? |
| Vanna Hochstadt 05.11.2011 | wow, that actually worked! cool little tip. thanks dude! |
| Vanna Hochstadt 02.11.2011 | Ok cool. I'm going to modify what I've done in the next day or so and I'll report back! |

| Samual Ogura 02.11.2011 | Edit: Since you use advanced fx, you'll want the command to be "effect param 'X' " instead of "effect 'X' amount" |
| Samual Ogura 02.11.2011 | There is a loophole! Whether it's suppose to happen or not, if you select "invert" for the "effect amount" command while it's set to "inc", "dec", or "reset", that function caries over to "direct" commands. So here's what you do:
Hope that works out for what you're hoping to do! Let me know, because I know a LOT of people are having this problem, and if it does work for you, I'll make a new thread to let everyone know the solution. |
| Vanna Hochstadt 02.11.2011 | P.s. I always keep my effect banks in single mode. I never change that. |
| Vanna Hochstadt 02.11.2011 | So essentially there's so work around and I'm stuck having to push the button twice in order to get the presets I want? |
| Kecia Wnukowski 02.11.2011 | There are two things, one is the options you set up for your effects and how they are recalled as a defined preset, check in the manual there's more to know exactly. The second thing (if that's relevant in your case) is whatever you'll do, you won't be able to overcome the fact that when changing from a type of fx mode (group to single or the other way round) to another you won't be able to get the parameters how you like them to be on a given effect. In a sense, Traktor needs a push first to change the fx mode and then call your preset. |
