* Moved Instant Gratification effects for decks A, B and C to Bank 2, 3 and 4, respectively.

* MF+S4 Buddy mapping located in Bank 1

* Please follow all installation instructions for MF Instant Gratification (http://www.djranking s.com/community /showthread.php?t=24514) -- make sure the "Preferences->Effects->FX Pre-selection" are in the same order as the original MF Instant Gratification mapping.

* Import the MF+S4 Buddy mapping as well as the three modified "MF_FX 4Banks" tsi files and assign to your Midi Fighter.

MF+S4 Buddy v0.3 Incl MF_FX 4Banks 1.0.2.zip


*********************************

v0.2 now available -- all feedback welcome. After actually using this in practice for awhile, I've re-thought how the effects should work. I developed a structure to support 8 pages of effects, 4 buttons each. Next revision will start to fill out the effects pages.

--------------------------------------------
v0.2

* Removed the ability to delete hot cues (from Deck A or B) when in Sample Deck mode. Since Shift is being used to stop the playing sample, there was too much chance to accidentally delete hot cues. You can still shift+delete hot cues in Deck A or Deck B mode.

* Created 8 pages for effects: selectable by the bottom 8 buttons when Deck A, B and Sample 1&2 modes are OFF. Effects are activated from the top 4 buttons.

* Top row LEDs no indicate the select effects page versus if an effect is on or off. This was confusing anyways since setting effects on the S4 directly would light the LEDs on the MF.

v0.1

* Initial release

--------------------------------------------

Hello All,

I'm happy to share a new Midi-Fighter mapping to compliment the S4. Consider it a v0.1 release.

Objective: Map the Midi-Fighter to improve on where the S4 can be a bit clunky. Namely: hot cues, sample triggering and effects loading. Since I wasn't exactly sure how I (or you) would use the MF in combination with the S4, I tried to make it as flexible as possible. Additionally, to avoid the deck focus confusion that seems to be exhibited by TPS4 mappings, I wanted an easy way to move between decks. Finally, since the current S4 version doesn't handle 4 effects panels well (i.e. loosing the ability to assign FX1 and 2 to a single deck), I've implemented all the effects in FX1 and FX2.

I'd appreciate any feedback, bugs or feature requests. There's only a handful of effects loaded in (suggestions welcome), and there's plenty of space (i.e. when all the deck and sample deck selectors are off) to add new features.
