Akai MPD32 mapping to Traktor PRO

Akai MPD32 mapping to Traktor PRO Posted on: 17.05.2009 by Tequila Thibaudeau NB! Future updates will be published only on my own website, so here's a direct link: http://www.djdesouza.com/2010/01/aka...r-traktor-pro/ ------------------------- Just finished mapping Akai MPD32 controller with Traktor PRO and decided to share it. I have a sketch picture how I've mapped everything so I won't write a long description how everything is working. If there's two behaviours mapped to one control, Switch Pad (Modifier #1) is used to act the second behaviour. If you have any questions, ideas or thoughts just let me know. edit: Minor changes to the mapping. I also included my GUI layouts into the .TSI-file (see pictures). All files has been replaced.
Tequila Thibaudeau 07.12.2010	Originally Posted by calvin01 hello desouza hoping you can help.im having problems with mapping my mpd.i started last evening and when i finished everything that i mapped was working as it was intended i also saved the preset on 17 and renamed it as traktor.then today i started up the laptop and opened traktor(without opening vyzex), mapped a few slice presets with values eg(effect par 1 0.700) but when i tried to use them the slice presets werenn't how i configured them (i.e some weren't the right values,one that i set as 0 on all 3 values worked but if i held it down all values were at 1.0??).i checked them all and i set them up correctly.so i thought i'd open up the vizex editor and load lasts evening s file (no problem).last evening s were still ok and the ones i had done today were wrong.is it traktor or maybe the vyzex editor im using v1.0 vyzex and firmware 1.01 mpd.hope you can help MPD32 firmware is currently v1.03 so you should definitely update the firmware, as there is some bugs in the old version (not all global settings are saved). Hope this helps!

Tequila Thibaudeau 18.10.2009	Originally Posted by maudio13 Hey thanks for the update. But what is the *.sqs file here for? It's for the MPD32, because I had to edit midi values in MPD to fix Traktor double assignment bugs. BUT BE AWARE that if you have other presets in MPD to some other software, this will overwrite all other presets as well. You can use Vyzex to load my presets (.sqs) to your MPD if my Traktor assignments doesn't work properly. Or then you can change the midi values by yourself straight form the MPD or using Vyzex to prevent loosing other presets.
Tequila Thibaudeau 11.10.2009	Originally Posted by aleem Hi, Thanks a mil for this/ Pls ignore my previous post. Can you please advise how to adjust the volume of the four decks and also the cross faders. and also how did you get to display mpd32 in the lcd screen of mpd32? The picture has been grabbed from Akai's website and therefore the lcd screen displays mpd32... I've just sketched my mappings on that picture If you want to adjust volume of all four decks at the same time from a single knob/fader, simpy in Traktor add new rule for each deck and learn them all to that single knob/fader of your choice. That's the way to get a "double macro" which means that you have multiple Traktor midi rules mapped to a single pad/knob/fader on your MPD.
Tequila Thibaudeau 12.10.2009	Originally Posted by Kyle_K What do you mean by "Behaviors"? are they like different mappings of the knobs/faders/pads? Umm, yes. For example there is a pad which has Tempo Bend and also FX1 on/off (Modifier #1) mapped for the same pad and you should use "Shift" pad to toggle to Modifier #1 which in this case is FX1 on/off. I had some bugs in my previous post (same midi values on different assignments) and those should be fixed. Also changed the position between pads "Play" and "Shift M#1" for better performance (see the layout picture) and now I have double macros on "Play" and all "Hotcues" so that Traktor will Phase sync when you hit "Play" or one of the "Hotcues". Please download new files in this post to apply chages. BTW you should also use Vyzex MPD32 to install the .sqs file included in the zip.

Wai Rofkahr 03.05.2010	How can I make both my VCI-100 AND my MPD32 work? Is there any value to this, or would it be better to just have the MPD control Ableton Live?
Edda Drawbridge 03.04.2010	Hi, I recently purchased an Akai MPD32. I am using it with some Visual Software called Modul8. I am experiencing some problems with the behavior of the Pads. What settings did you change the Pads to? Do I click on EDIT then Press the Pad and change it from NOTE to PROG CHANGE then what? I'm a little lost.... Thanks,

Mikaela Portmann 19.10.2009	It doesnt work! Whenever I hit the playbutton on Deck 4, Deck 3 will make a 2nd cue point! The same with pad 1, pad 2 and pad 3... Maybe a reupload?? thanks

Mikaela Portmann 12.10.2009	aaaah I don't get it! Do I need midi cables? There is still a bug or I made something wrong...

Phillip Thele 21.06.2009	Thanks for this. I have traktor and I control using bcd3000. I bought mpd32 recently and struggling to understand why I bought it in the first place. But this completes the picture. I load the midi files as .tks, but the file you have provided is .tsi. Can you please explain what needs loaded in traktor ? Do i need to simply map the midi layout using learn function on traktor to as per you have shown in the picture in which case what is the purpose of tsi file? Thanks in advance,
Mathew Meins 30.05.2009	Nice work, I'm planning on getting an mpd 32 next month and this really helped me with ideas on how to map it. Are you using it with something else? A VCI-100 perhaps?
