What is the simplest way to deejay with the APC40? Posted on: 02.08.2013 by Danielle Caguioa That is my question. I have an APC40 with the Ableton Live that came with it, as well as Traktor 2.5 and the Collision mapping. Honestly, I'm in way over my head. I know this community
is on the cutting edge of digital deejaying and controllerism, but it's a completely new world to me. So while most on here are probably concerned with pushing new boundaries, I basically want to mix tracks the way it used to be done with two turntables and a mixer, and then slowly take it from there. Baby steps. There could be an inherent flaw in the question, I suppose...maybe there isn't a "simple" way to deejay with a MIDI controller with ten faders, seventeen knobs, and eighty-plus buttons! What do you believe? | |

| Vannessa Bonifer 14.08.2013 | My buddy just bought one and mapped everything to it, and he is new to Traktor and mapping. I'll see if I can get him to post his mapping. |
| Danielle Caguioa 07.08.2013 | Maybe so, but for now I'm trying to find a simpler way to work with what I've got. |
| Erica Charvet 05.08.2013 | If you are asking this question, the APC40 is not the controller for you. I'd suggest you get something more along the lines of two decks + mixer format. It's far more intuitive and matches the appearance of Traktor. |
| Kellie Myrum 05.08.2013 | Map two line faders and play/pause buttons. Must be most simple? Ask yourself what controls do you need and design the layout you're comfort with. Let there be map. |
