need help mapping my x1
need help mapping my x1 Posted on: 12.08.2013 by Elsie Golis Hi all, I need some help mapping my x1. I want to map my x1 to function sort of like a x1 mk2 minus the touch strips because I plan on buying a x1 mk2 soon and they should sit alongisde well. So far it's going well (mapping the flux button to cup etc) but I hit a roadblock regarding my mapping skills. I want to map the sync button so that when I hold sync and turn the loop encoder, it changes the BPM without turning on sync just like on the mk2 but I can't figure out how to do this for the life of me. I can easily map a button to do my bidding or to act as a shift button for something else with modifiers (I only recently found out how to use modifiers) but how do I apply multiple functions to a button like this? is it even possible? help is appreciated | |

| Kellie Myrum 13.08.2013 | There are couple of different routs to achieve this trick but this always stays the same, BPM turns on shift M=1 I believe this was the reason for NI to add new INVERT option in 2.6.2 so they don't need to use good old Traktor inverting trick in their mappings. |
| Elsie Golis 12.08.2013 | HOLY SHIT stewe thanks a bunch mate I got it to do what I want by accident but the trick lies indeed in setting sync on to inverted. I did it using a chain of 3 modifiers: the first modifier is triggered by holding down the sync button, setting the value to 1 (value 1 is required for sync to turn on) while sync on is inverted (on release). now turning the encoder sets the modifer to 2 preventing the sync to turn on and chaning bpm! then when I release the sync button it resets the modifier value back to 0. I know it is quite complicated and I surely believe it could be done easier but it does exactly what I want so bscly: sync press and hold = value 1, encoder turned yes/no? if not keep value 1 and turn on sync on release If yes, set value to 2 for changing bpm, reset value to 0 on release of sync button |
| Kellie Myrum 12.08.2013 | Sync on / M=0 should prevent sync from turning on. But you can also map enc CC to directly disable sync (direct=0) when you start changing BPM. Sync direct=1 (inverted) to switch on sync on release of the button. |
