Mapping MPD32 shift button
Mapping MPD32 shift button Posted on: 16.04.2012 by Jesusita Capano Just purchased an Akai MPD32 and have been mapping for two deck control in conjunction with an external mixer. I've mapped all the pads to control deck functions and now want to also set up a shift option to make the pads trigger hot cues but have run into a problem.I have to press my shift button twice to toggle it on/off, which completely defeats the point of the LED feedback, since when it's on the LED is off half the time and vice versa. I've followed these instructions to make my shift button. Any ideas why this is happening? | |

Kellie Myrum 06.06.2012 | I'm glad that worked out. If you got some more questions feel free to ask. |
Jesusita Capano 06.06.2012 | Brilliant mate! Thanks alot, I didn't realise that the other software worked in conjunction with Traktor aswell... Cheers! |
Kellie Myrum 06.06.2012 | You need to remove "M1=0" from modifier conditions. Think logical. Why do you need to make modifier to toggle the button when that button has toggle by default. Sense to me |

Jesusita Capano 06.06.2012 | Also, if I have only one modifier the modifier stay on constantly after I have pressed it once. |
Jesusita Capano 06.06.2012 | I have the controller set to toggle and understand thats why it doesn't stay lit. Is it the LED output MIDI range 0-1? |
Kellie Myrum 06.06.2012 | Have you tried to set your controller's configuration to /toggle/ and set one modifier (no duplicates) to /hold/ interaction mode? LED output 0 to 1 (no blend) |
Jesusita Capano 06.06.2012 | Sorry for leaving this thread for so long, been majorly busy with university so haven't been using the MPD with Traktor until now and alas the problem still persists. i noticed on my last screenshot the led output was set to cc32 instead of 28, but having corrected it I still have the problem of the led not staying lit even with blend unchecked as Cionni suggested ANYONE GOT A CLUE WHAT TO DO? |
Somer Vanstraten 17.04.2012 | Try setting the controller range 0 - 1 And if this not work, try disable "blend" |
Jesusita Capano 16.04.2012 | And here's the ouptup for LED now. |

Do you believe this is because I have the hardware set on the Live preset instead of a generic one? ALSO, I might not have explained clearly but, after one press the LED is on and the modifier works, after another LED is off but modifier is still on, afte one more the LED is back on but modifier off, and finally another press turns everything off. |
Somer Vanstraten 16.04.2012 | And try in the mapping window, disable the learn function, try to press shift, and have a look in the small windows on top if m1 change value. |
Somer Vanstraten 16.04.2012 | I can't see what is written in the screenshot, and there is not the output command. Anyway, you have to set like this, if modifier is 0, button direct to 1 If modifier is 1, button direct to 0. Output should be in range 0-1 |
Jesusita Capano 16.04.2012 | Maybe you looked at my reply before I added both screenshots but I've put both up now. In the video I watched the buttons were set to hold... EDIT: Have tried setting the buttons to direct and still no luck |
Somer Vanstraten 16.04.2012 | Add a screenshot of the out for shift button also, it could be an output problem, anyway, I can't see clearly the screenshot, I assume you use "direct" to toggle 0-1 with a modifier1-0 |
Jesusita Capano 16.04.2012 | On Off |
Somer Vanstraten 16.04.2012 | Post a screenshot of the mapping window regarding the shift button, so we can "have a look" |
