Traktor Pro, Kontrol X1 questions with another Midi controller Posted on: 30.07.2010 by Alta Corea I have Traktor Pro and the Kontrol X1. Im liking the fact I can run 4 decks but do Not like that I cant control the Volume Faders ,or the Low, Mid, high, knobs. My question is....Is there a Mixer that is Midi assignable that I can control after I map it or is my best beat is to buy a Xone 1D or 2D? I do not plan on ever having time coded records or cds. | |

Alta Corea 03.08.2010 | Cool with me. Im about to go mix now. |
Leeanna Ayla 03.08.2010 | I may want to check that 1D out sometime. |
Alta Corea 03.08.2010 | Well I mapped everything myself yesterday and today. I have the Kontrol X1 running effects for 4 decks ONLY. My Xone 1D is running 4 decks with volume faders, loops, bass, high knobs (NO MIDs still working on that) Folder search, Song search, cue, play, sync , and head phone cues. Going to take a trial and era run toevening
to see how everything works in my favor. If not I will be back at mapping tomorrow. I feel 100% better knowing I mapped these units myself. This was my first time to ever do anything like this before. Ive only owned the X1 for 1 month and the 1D for 2 days. Now Im not going to get ahead of myself at all. But I do plan on adding more midi controllers for other projects. Thanks for all the helpful people and info on DJTT. |
Branden Wentler 30.07.2010 | can the audio to the Denon be sent from traktor via USB like the Xone:4D? I imagine so but Denon's site is down atm...believeing of selling my 92 and Audio8 if this is the case. EDIT: Got the answer I was looking for. |

Korey Ehman 30.07.2010 | I am believeing the new version of the Faderfox DJ3... really portable - http://www.dv247.com/assets/products/75506_l.jpg If you look at the layout of the 1D its not really ideal to use as a mixer.. theres only 2 of the same dials above each fader so your either going to miss out low, mid or high |
Alta Corea 30.07.2010 | That uc-33e is nice. Never have seen one. Like I said before Im new to the Digital age. Ive been mixing records and cds for 10 years. Looks like the doors just open to a new beginning for me. Thanks for all the info guys. But I believe Im going to buy the Allen Heath Xone 1d |
Florence Alch 30.07.2010 | uc-33e would be perfect. |
Alta Corea 30.07.2010 | Not looking for anything that is completely made out of plastic. I travel alot and will be using what ever midi controller I buy alot. I just looked on Ebay and found a Xone 1D for $200 shipped new. i might make the plunge and just but it now. |
Graham Frazier 30.07.2010 | How about a korg NanoKontrol?? |
Alta Corea 30.07.2010 | Not really a Big fan on Behringer products. But I do like the lay out on the Denon. Just never heard or seen that mixer at work before. Really liking the Xone 1d and 2d since I can map every button and slider the way I want. And its not to bad on the pocket. |
Leeanna Ayla 30.07.2010 | Great mixer for the money, really the best bang for the buck. http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/DDM4000.aspx The one I want. http://www.denondj.com/DN-X1600-P123.aspx Both of these would be very well complemented by an X1 |
