What are you looking for in a Novation Launchpad mapping?
Posted on: 20.07.2012 by Zana Chevallier
So to start off: i am making a novation launchpad mapping and i already have some functions mapped...it is a two deck mapping , 16 buttons for effects (12 of them are group effects and four buttons are mapped for single effect) . Also i have 8 hotcues per deck, create loop with loop size adjust, loop recorder, snap and quantize, play, cue, load next selected, tempo sync, basic track browsing.

So reason for posting: i am trying to figure out what people want to get out of the novation launchpad. What features would you like to see, or some interesting thoughts. I will work on the mapping and allow it for download. Thank you for any and all inpit!

I feel like it uses too many midi tracks for LE, but it never hurts to try

welcome to the world of midi mapping traktor may be quite limited in what u can do compared to apps like mixxx and vdj (or midimasher for that matter) but there's still heaps u can do. u just have to jump through a few hoops in traktor usually to achieve what u need to do.

checkout some of stewe's other posts for a heap of neat tricks you can do directly in traktor when mapping he's posted a bunch of cool tips and tricks to this thread for example http://community .djranking s.com/showthr...=23910&page=27

we haven't seen any improvements in the controller manager since traktor pro 1 i guess? i really hoped they'd at least do something for 2.5 but they just don't seem to see it as any kind of priority. if/when they add midi mapping for the remix decks maybe they'll hav e no choice then to make improvements? there again... i'm sure they could bodge in the settings they need into the current layout. next trick adding in those controls at the end of each section. hilighting controls with the same midi settings is one of the few good things about that mapping window. one pain is that the order u add controls can *sometimes* make a difference to the mapping and i don't believe there's even any way to reorder them? mapping using xtrememapping is a lot better, but a pain u have to save+load into traktor to try anything out, which kind of negates it a bit unless you know what u need to add. even scrolling thru that controller manager isn't super easy...

It was only one midi generic with all modifiers burned. I haven't know then that I can add more devices to mapping I'm believeing to update it to 2.5 shouldn't be much work just to add FX store preset and some new tricks to performance mode.

Looking forward to see some update on this mapping for Lounchpad we were talking bout! I would like to see where this idea goes.
cheers did start it toevening but had some work i had to get done - will get it done next week. not tricky just quite different to most of my midimasher configs - as usually all the actual mapping is done in the config itself - where as here it'll just be sending/recv'ing out different midi depending on the page and actual mapping done in the app it's sending midi to.

you do come up with some amazing mappings in traktor so i can understand why you'd want to stick with mapping that way. i only bought traktor just over a year ago i believe, before that all my dj'ing was on turntables. i loved that u could customize traktor mappings but being a coder i hate having to use gui's anyway so wanted a different way of mapping. bomes looks good but very fiddly to do anything really complex. i did buy midikatapult which was great but didn't allow any actual mapping within the app and was partly the inspiration for my midimasher. now i'm using mixxx i don't actually need to use midimasher if i'm not also hooking into extra samplers and/or ableton - but i like that a mapping i create using midimasher will work on mixxx and also traktor.

Every time you switch to any other of main banks mapping will remember which mode was it before and next time you return to that bank one of the LED from sub mods will indicate it. I did a short video to show you four banks that I mapped in to one last page.



I call it DJTT mode because I fill it inspired by videos and tutorials that I watched, MF, VCI, S2 ofc jogFX can't sound exactly the same because of not sensitive encoder with low accuracy but I tried to make it as close to it as possible.

you can do this directly in ableton, using a whole heap of midi tracks. you basically map the launchpad buttons to unmute one of the tracks. there's a youtube video of how to do it. takes a while to setup but seems to work well if all you want is an 8-step sequencer with 8 tracks.

If you wanted to go wild, you could do the same for User 1, and end up with 16 Launchpads!
that would be a pretty simple midimasher config. basically make it so that when you press user1 the right hand set of buttons then become a further set of 8 page switch buttons. using notes+cc's and 16 midi channels for each you map a whole heap of extra pages if wanted midimasher would automatically handle the resetting of led states on page switching. then the output from midimasher could be mapped to any app you wanted. when the user mode button(s) weren't activated midimasher could just route all midi as though it was a normal launchpad. i may have a go at writing that config later out of interest... as it wouldn't take much at all, mostly a bunch of loops to setup the sub pages.

24.07.2012		I believe it's all about feedback, and people obviously aren't sending many requests for this as further suggestion. Most of guys just open it when importing tsi, they don't need editor in fulscreen and faster scrolling.

They are concentrating more on issues and fixes should be priority. Isn't like they don't need bigger team working on suggestions at same time.

Thanks man! I'll be posting one more video tomorrow. It's about BCD3000 super fader.

I remember it took me few days to figure out only how to setup.

Traktor pro changed it all. It was godsend! I created one basic 2 deck mapping with four effects with no problems since I was doing mappings for keyboard for long time. Then I saw guy on youtube using modifier to create browser mode. It was in traktor since ever and I didn't know what modifiers are for and simply never used it before. I tried it and it worked. So it took me a few months till I actually figure out that I can use that toggle modifier to use four decks, that was awesome. Then I start to modify it further and in that time fader fx was promoted with VCI-100 SE and it was big inspiration to do something like that for my mapping. Then I started to mix between effects and did a lot of practice on those. After that I had my first mapping which I called it advance because it was pretty complex to me in that stage.

23.07.2012		possible but completely impractical, esp as all buttons/modifiers would need to be toggles and untoggle any other layer change toggle when one is activated. you'd also then not have any modifiers for normal mapping tricks.

with midimasher sitting between the launchpad and traktor you're only limited to how many ways u can believe of selecting page/layer switches and it handles all the 'out's for you on layer changes - so won't get tangled up in any traktor issues there.

there is still a limit ofc to how many pages/layers you can map using just one midi device in traktor - but with 16 channels of 128 values and only needing 64 for the main grid that's a lot of potential pages best to leave channel 1 alone as then that can be used to route the launchpad data unchanged so that any normal launchpad tsi can be used on it too, but that ofc still leaves 30 pages that can be mapped, which is probably enough

and ofc, like u said, that can be expanded by adding extra midi devices in traktor, so adding each extra one of those would give an additional 32 pages (as we wouldn't need to reserve the launchpad default one for any others)

i've also created a mapping that uses the arrow buttons to scroll a much larger grid around the 8x8 launchpad one, works nicely for clip launching and stuff, but less use in traktor probably.

i was believeing of making user1 and user2 toggles, that ensure only one is toggled on at a time and when both are toggled off then the launchpad is back into vanilla mode and just routing the standard midi to and from traktor. the right hand column of buttons would light up in red when one of those user1/user2 modes were selected and the current 'page' from that bank lit up in yellow and it would remember the currently selected bank so when u hit user1 or user2 again you'd be back on the same sub page you were before.

the real power of using midimasher tho with a launchpad is to also do the actual traktor mapping in midimasher code, makes selecting colours of the buttons for off and on states really easy and stuff like 'loop' controls like we discussed on that other thread very simple and all work exactly as they should.

this bit of code creates a shift button and loop controls for decks a+b on page 1 of the launchpad. full led feedback on loop length etc even if the loops are changed in traktor or from another controller, loops are in "hold" mode unless the shift button is also pressed in which case they toggle.

hold_modifier("lp", "trkon", 1, lp_hi_yellow, lp_lo_green, "shift")

loop_sizes = { "/8", "/4", "/2", "1", "2", "4", "8", "16" }

traktor.loops("launchpad", grid("6,0", "7,3"), 1, lp_hi_green, lp_lo_green, "shift", "a", loop_sizes)
traktor.loops("launchpad", grid("6,4", "7,7"), 1, lp_hi_green, lp_lo_green, "shift", "b", loop_sizes)

22.07.2012		It might sound totally insane but number of modes in traktor can go up to maximum of 64 in one lounchpad mapping. Those upper eight round buttons can handle main eight banks and other eight on the side can be mapped like another eight banks inside of every main bank. If there is another modifier state in traktor with value 8 this mapping would require eight MIDI generic devices to work properly, but with currently 7 it makes it more complicate then it already is. I know no one will ever map it all, only giving example

This come when we speak about only eight banks too. You can easily map seven banks with one modifier because there are values 1-7 but when adding this eight bank you need to set another modifier in grid to do the trick.

That woulb be a lot of functionality! Lol i believe it would be overkill(not saying it wouldnt be cool though).What would youbmap all those buttons to do? Ill definitly look into it

21.07.2012		you didn't say what app you were mapping to - but makes no odds i guess - this is the description for the two page mapping i created for mixxx:

top left arrow keys for track/library browsing
top right 'mixer' button toggles to the mixer page
bottom right is a shift button and above that a 2nd shift button

main grid

the main grid is split into two halves, one for each deck. each half is mapped the same

row 1: quantize, keylock, headphone cue, load
row 2: 2 flanger buttons and 2 gator buttons
row 3: loops 1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8
row 4: loop in, loop out, loop exit/retrigger, deck reverse
row 5: hotcues 1-4
row 6: hotcues 5-8
row 7: cue, reset pitch, pitch down, pitch up
row 8: play, sync, pitchbend down, pitchbend up

shift + hotcue = delete hotcue
shift2 + hotcue = needle drop for quickly scanning through a track
shift + sync = adjust beatgrid

with the deck playing:

pitchbend = normal pitchbend
shift + pitchbend = pitchbend more

when the deck is not playing:

pitchbend = forward wind/rewind thru the track
shift + pitchbend = very fine fwd/rew to help align beatgrids

main grid (mixer mode)

the mixer page basically consists of 8 columns of virtual faders ala ableton live.

col 1-3: deck A low/mid/high virtual eq faders with eq kills at the top
col 4: volume deck A
col 5: volume deck B
col 6-8: deck B low/mid/high virtual eq faders with eq kills at the top

it's partly a port of my midimasher mapping for the launchpad with traktor
