Vestax Spin Traktor 1.2.3 TSI Fully Working
Posted on: 14.01.2010 by Desire Kwiek
Ok guys!

Here's the most stable and fully working map for the moment.

There were some problems and functionality issues with DJBalla's map so I started from scratch. The FX section is fine tuned to suit my needs so if someone wants it changed - just say so Loop section works as follows: Pressing "AUTO" sets auto loop, pressing "SET Cue" sets cue and loop in, pressing In/Out sets Loop Out I've set up the In/Out LED to indicate when the track is in loop.

Freezes and bugs now occur very rarely ;] If you experience something weird --> drop a line here ;]

So here it is! Enjoy!

New version available! See the end of the post 1.0 -- > Attachment 1934

- The Sync Button now flashes with the tempo of the track
- Minor improvements
- Fixed LEDs MIDI Range issue

New Stuff:

- Shift + Mic Pitch controls Effect 3
- Shift + Left Jog Wheel moves Up and Down through the track list
- Automix + Jogwheels - Controls Dry/Wet on effects! Cooler then you might believe ;]

Even More New Stuff (Ver. 1.1)

- added LED notification when track is in AUTO Loop

- AND FINALLY, after 5 hours of misery... the channel level meters It was a real mission to get them working!

- Minor changes

Cheers

P.S. Quite a messy post this is... I've been posting, reposting and editing it for days

Hi there, the mappings great, but could someone tell me how I set up my soundcard? Because right now I can only select the sound card from my PC, but that way I can't PFL with the headphones...

PM or reply please

Thanx Oldfashioned, I just bought a Spin today, dowloaded your tsi on my mac with Traktor 1.2.4, and everything works perfectly. U rule man !

Btw, I've parsed all the messages and I've seen some demands to have an indication of which mode (FX/no FX through AUTOMIX button) the controller is in.

After some tests with the FX mode, I agree with that. Would be very useful to have a way to know which mode is activated..

I will try to digg in the TRAKTOR user manual to see if it's feasible, but mapping MIDI controls seems to be quite complex. If anyone knows how to do that or can provide an updated tsi, I would be very thankful.

Have fun you all !

maybe a button for drops, like if you inserted your dj name and just use a one button function to drop it over your trax that your mixing

Oldfashioned,

Any chance you can get the LEDs for automix and shift to light up to know what part of FX mode you are in

i have a x1 now to do effects but it would be nice to have tactile control of teh filters again and be aware of what mode the device is really in.

thanks man, looking forward to playing with the changes youve made, your map has been fantastic to play with and really extended the life of the spin for me.

Oh one more thing does anyone know how to record mixes from the spin, i need to make a demo mix and cant figure out how to record it


thanks again
Cheers dude! Really glad that you liked the map.

You can basically record your mix by hitting the REC button in traktor. It records a very large Wave file (depending on mix duration) that you can them master in Ableton or Cubase (or any DAW for that matter) and make some additions and then export it as an mp3.

I haven't really worked on the 4 DECK map for quite a while and I really believe that the Spin can really be used with 4 decks successfully and with full creative potential. I have some cool updates for the 2 Decks map though. Check again after a few days. I will do my best to upload it. Also if you have any ideas that you believe would be useful, drop a line and I will try to integrate them in the map.

Big up!

Has there been a fix for having LEDs on with the TSIs for the Spin?

Or are you guys still experiencing freezing?

I have a map, but I just kept the original typhoon mapping, except that the mic and FX knob are used for filter on decks A and B, I also mapped quite a sophisticated FX to it, but my buddy did the setup wizard a couple of weeks ago and it whiped it all out, so I've been too lazy to go and do it again.

your best bet is to download the .tsi file for the vestax Typhoon and start mapping from scratch there, that's what I did and the lights work. if you continue to map lights on oldfashioned's .tsi file, it tends to freeze the controller when the lights turn on for some reason.

So i kinda figured out a way around my earlier problem but in playing with the tsi by oldfashioned i noticed a few things that could be improved.......

when using Mic ON/OFF for super cue mode and AutoMix for FX mode is there anyway to turn the LED's on when you push the button kinda like they worked in DJAY? ive noticed that i tend to get a bit confused when im all over the place mixing and then go to use an FX and im in normal mode or go to play with the physical EQ's on the spin and it starts controlling the values for the FX and i dont notice till way later and it sounds like crap.

If someone could update this or kinda tell me how to go about finding the values and what not this would be greatly appreciated to take an almost perfect map that much further.

So i finally got my spin and traktor working together (was sick of DJAY wasnt enough fun stuff to play around with unlike Oldfashioned's TSI.) but anyways i digress.....

i finally got my set up to run from the spin to the AUX on my speakers and the precue through my headphones but the volume from teh spin to the speakers is really low ( little bass, kinda scratchy and the RCA cables are brand new because i thought that might be the problem) unless i crank the speaker's master volume almost to max and even then its still flat and scratchy. ive tried researching this everywhere i could but have had no luck. if anyone has any insight into this id really appreciate it because i have a few gigs next week and really would rather use Traktor than DJAY if i can get the sound working right.

btw, im running the spin on a yr old Macbook pro with snowleopard 10.6.4

thanks a bunch

How can I fix this??
set master output to channels 1 & 2, and monitoring to channels 3 & 4.

when you use the spin as the audio device, the master sound is sent through the rca's in the spin. You can run an RCA to 3.5mm into the line in and hear it that way. There is an App called "LineIn" for OS X that let's you monitor the sound coming in through, shockingly enough, the line in port. that's the setup on my macbook when I am practicing.

is this map fully functional with Typhoon as well? i believe there're slight differences in Spin/Typhoon original functions so to get an idea if this works would be nice.

thanks!

I have the same problem. Let me explain in more details:

I'm using Windows XP, Traktor Pro 1.2.5.
With the help of ASIO4ALL v.2 I managed to set Output Routing to SPIN's soundcard.

The problem comes when I try to use it as a controller. In Controller Manager I imported a couple of .tsi's from the community , also tried Typhoon's .tsi from Vestax website. Nothing happens. No any response from faders/knobs movement, as if the SPIN was not connected 8-(
Would anybody be so kind to tell me (and djlooms) if I missed something. May be there is some mysterious "apply" button that I am missing to press?
Thank you, traktor gurus, for any response in advance

Photojojo beat me to it, in the upper centre section of the traktor interface, your mix knob is set to anything above 0 same thing I had when I first hooked up the Spin

Make sure the mix knob in the software is turned the correct way.

Wonder if someone could help me out. When Im switched to a certain deck, im hearing the audio for the deck in my headphones whether I press the headphone button or not. Is there a way to only hear the audio when the button is pressed?

hey, i'm new to using Traktor but I have had my Spin since Christmas. Anyways, I have Traktor 1.2.1 and imported your .tsi but my Spin isn't doing anything with the program. Do i need to restart the program or something? The only thing i notice is when I press a button, in Traktor the "MIDI" icon at the top flashes. What am I doing wrong???

I don't suppose anyone knows what midi out note you would use to make the platter LED's to flash to the beat in the same manner as the sync button does, as it's setup in this map? I've been able to find all the buttons by trial and error, but not the platters. Is this even possible?

I use spin 3 4 for output monitor and 1 2 for output master. Push the headphone button to hear the selected channel on either or both decks also make sure the mix knob is not all the way on mix (software mixer, not hardware controlled). I use asio4all PC traktor 1.25

don't traktor pro .tsi files work in Trakto duo? If not just download the vestax Typhoon map from vestax's website, and that should work no problem on traktor duo.

Hi,

I'm currently using my Vestax Spin with Traktor 1.2.3. I was believeing of getting the Akai LPD8 as I would like more control over cue points and effects.
Does anyone know if all three would work together?
