4-Deck mapping
4-Deck mapping Posted on: 03.06.2010 by Florence Leibold I'd like to try mixing with 4 Decks, therefore I want to create a mapping that allows me to switch decks 1/3 and 2/4 by pushing one button.Is it possible to assign a function to a button to assign th ebuttons and knobs from deck 1 to deck 3 an vice versa? | |

I'm considering mapping the pitch sliders to become faders for decks C & D but I'm not sure I can bring myself to lose direct control (old turntable habits die hard). |

| Kaitlin Reyesrodriguez 11.08.2010 | hey guys, wonder if you could help me here, been after a .tsi like this for ages now and im so glad i finally found one that seems to be well reviewed, only problem is when i download the zip file and open it with winrar, there is no .tsi file just a file with the same name that doesnt load into traktor, nor can be opened by any of the programs in windows, has anyone else had this problem? thanlks in advance, would really like this as it seems perfect. carl-tel |
| Taisha Armendaris 19.07.2010 | I can't seem to download the tsi. I know it's not a problem with your attachment it seems to be my account restriction or something>>> So close yet so far-??? |

| Allene Manitta 08.06.2010 | i have that pitch-fader for volume of c&d working on my vci-100, too. working great. tried having the same faders for two decks (+modifier), but never really worked out for me. |
| Necole Frodl 08.06.2010 | I've not had time to try it but I was believeing over the weekend about this I'm believeing that I have set the beat grid on most of my tracks so I don't need the pitch slider nearly as much as I need volume faders for decks C & D. I'm therefore going to try mapping a modifier + jog wheel combination to change the pitch slider in traktor and then using the sliders on the omni unit to control the volumes on decks C & D. This should be pretty cool because I can extend the idea to set a modifier + jog wheel to control the master tempo. I've found the master desk idea does not really feel very natural with more than 2 decks playing so I tend to sync with the master tempo these days. |

| Florence Leibold 04.06.2010 | I'm using a Vestax VCM-100 and I'd like to convert the "PFL" button that I hardly ever use to my "switch deck" button... |
| Leeanna Ayla 03.06.2010 | @Manfred What controller are you using? |
| Leida Blasko 03.06.2010 | I created a midi map for 4 deck control of Traktor Pro using a single Omni Control. I am attaching the .tsi file. Pitch Bend - and + select the decks in focus. Pitch Bend - on left side selects deck A (default), Pitch Bend + on left side selects deck C, Pitch Bend - on right side selects deck B, and Pitch Bend + on right side selects deck D. The Pitch Bend LEDs indicate the decks in focus. |
