Instant Gratification and Midi Fighter Classic - Midi notes? Posted on: 11.01.2012 by Maudie Ellars Hey All,I'm looking to move my effects between the units so I can utilise the the layout and the effects knobs better with the Instant Gratification mapping. I understand the basics of what to do but the problem I'm having is the MIDI notes listed for example 'Deck A' are not what the MIDI Fighter is sending for Deck A! A further detailed example is as follows: To activate 'Filter:92 LFO' (as per the controller manager) Effect 2 On - In - FX Unit 3 - Hold - Ch03.Note.A#2 (actual MIDI message being sent from MIDI Fighter on Deck A for that effect) Ch03.Note.A#1 Now, somehow these two are connected and working! This completely loses me as surely the controller manager must match the received key unless there is some weird converting going on? Can somebody shed some light so I can get into the MIDI routing? I'd love to get more into it and I also have a second MIDI Fighter Classic I'd like to make use of. Any explanation of whats going on here would be great as I'm stuck in thick mud and going nowhere... (Oh by the way, this is for all decks and effects! Its as if they're all shifted up one category!) | |

No wonder I've got absolutely nowhere with manual Traktor mapping of my MIDI Fighters...

| Gigi Weese 12.01.2012 | Use the learn function or change the notes on your midi device. The latter is what I did on the X1, just changed it to match the midifighter notes. That way if there comes a new Midifighter mapping out I can simply import it without having to change the mapping.. |
| Maudie Ellars 12.01.2012 | ...any ideas how i get round this? |
| Maudie Ellars 12.01.2012 | So... You're telling me that Traktor shifts the messages!? Why on earth would it do that??? No wonder I've got absolutely nowhere with manual Traktor mapping of my MIDI Fighters... My notes are: BANK A c-2 (b) (c) (d) G#1 A1 A#1 B1 E1 F1 F#1 G1 C1 C#1 D1 D#1 BANK B (a) c#-2 (c) (d) G#2 A2 A#2 B2 E2 F2 F#2 G2 C2 C#2 D2 D#2 BANK C (a) (b) D-2 (d) G#3 A3 A#3 B3 E3 F3 F#3 G3 C3 C#3 D3 D#3 BANK D (a) (b) (d) D#-2 G#4 A4 A#4 B4 E4 F4 F#4 G4 C4 C#4 D4 D#4 |

| Gigi Weese 12.01.2012 | There are more reports that some have to lower the note by 1. This is what the mapping should be: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/68166/Temp/M...ode%20MIDI.PDF I have the gratification working on an X1. Easiest is to apply to the deck in focus instead of mapping all the notes for all decks. |
| Chasidy Heckenbach 11.01.2012 | ch3/a#1 doesn't make sense. ch3/a#2 should be button (2,3) when in bank one of the 4banks mode (or normal mode). this is my crib sheet: 4 bank mode Code:
C-1 C#-1 D-1 D#-1 G#2 A2 A#2 B2 E2 F2 F#2 G2 C2 C#2 D2 D#2 there are also some extra notes that get sent out for super combos but i can't find my notes on what actual midi gets sent out for those atm. how are u checking what midi is coming out of the mf? |
