Twitch, Launchpad & Traktor (together)
Twitch, Launchpad & Traktor (together) Posted on: 26.01.2012 by MadMan Ajms Anyone know if Novation Twitch and a Launchpad can be used together with Traktor Pro? I believe it could be a cool setup, but maybe too usb intensive..??Anyone know anything or any mappings already? Cheers | |

| MadMan Ajms 15.02.2012 | So get this correct..I need to download Midi Master and run it between the Launchpad and Traktor..? Any You tube video on this? Is this Mac? How does the visual feedback work on the LP? I mean I want to see volumes and fx.. Cheers and thanks for your help and time. |

| MadMan Ajms 29.01.2012 | Ah one last ?..This LUA is loaded into Traktor or into the launchpad somehow? |
| MadMan Ajms 29.01.2012 | Thanks guys..wicked! |
| Nedra Fresneda 28.01.2012 | As long as you map them in different controller pages and assing the in/outs accordingly, you shouldn't have any kind of issues with overlaps or conflicting midi channels. |

| MadMan Ajms 28.01.2012 | nice, but how does one program the Launchpad with TP2? I heard the Launchpad does not use standard midi mapping? |
