Reply to got a new Akai MPD24

but, i'm having problems mapping it out and need your help sorting this out. setup is TRAKTOR DUO w/VCM-100. i just bought a Akai MPD24 for the usual, cue points and effects. but when i'm in Preferences/Midi Mapping and am trying to map out functions using the Midi Learn, it doesn't work right. i've read somewhere that i need to be using a separate midi channel for the MPD24, but i'm not sure where to select that. i've tried changing the box with the drop down menu that starts with omni thru ch 16, and thats not doing anything. i also noticed when the MPD24 is powered on it has some presets loaded for other programs on the blue screen. i've been going to one of the default screens when trying to map this. anyways, i hope i'm making some kind of sense to somebody so i could get some guidance. thanks.
