Midi map question (multiple use 1 button)
Midi map question (multiple use 1 button) Posted on: 14.07.2011 by Alvaro Loa Hi allI am struggling with a (the) method to midi map 1 button for multiple use/settings. Let me explain: I want to map 1 button to toggle with 'Tempo Range' percentages. When I don't push the button (M1=value 0), the 'Tempo Range' is standard 6%, push the button 1x= Tempo Range 10%, push (the same) button again= Tempo Range 16%, push (the same) button again= Tempo Range 100% push (the same) button again= Tempo Range back to 6% and so on ... I guess it has something to do with Modifier settings, Modifiers Conditions and Value's, but I just can figure out how to set the modifier and/or it's corresponding button assignment. I know how to use (midi map) Modifiers in a 'simple' configuration, but this configuration I just can't seem to figure out. Also the LED mapping, I can't get figured out. I want: (standard, no button push) LED1 ON Tempo Range = 6% (push 1) LED2 ON (LED 1 OFF) Tempo Range = 10% (push 2) LED3 ON (LED 2 and 1 OFF) Tempo Range = 16% (push 3) LED1+2+3 ON Tempo Range = 100% (push 4) LED1 ON (LED 2 and 3 OFF) Tempo Range back to 6% and so on ... Probably has to be a combination of LED out, Send Monitor State and how the different fields should be set and/or filled in. I googled but could not find anything how this can be done. Maybe somebody from the community can help ? Thx in advance Kristof - Belgium | |

| Lavenia Neild 14.07.2011 | Nice! Good job figuring it out. |
| Alvaro Loa 14.07.2011 | Device(s) OUT are 3 different LED's: 1 red (address A#1), 1 blue (address F#1) 1 green (address E1) So: Tempo Range (M1=0) 6% = Red (A#1) ON Tempo Range (M1=1) 10% = Blue (F#1) ON (Red (A#1) OFF) Tempo Range (M1=2) 16% = Green (E1) ON (Red (A#1) OFF and Blue (F#1) OFF) Tempo Range (M1=3) 100% = Red (A#1) , Blue (F#1) and Green (E1) ON |
| Lavenia Neild 14.07.2011 | What device are you mapping? I imagine there's not a good way to figure it out as LED's on all devices are pretty much wired differently. I found out that for the MFP Cue Master, you just add an OUT and map it to the same button that the LED is attached to. |
| Alvaro Loa 14.07.2011 | I was typing my reply while you were apparently posting your reply Belmont ;-) But thx anyway ! |
| Alvaro Loa 14.07.2011 | Eureka !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Figured it out for the button ... Make 1 modifier 4 times: Add IN Modifier/Modifier#1: Mod1: (midi address button1) - M1 - 0 - Direct - Set to value: 1 Mod1: (midi address button1) - M1 - 1 - Direct - Set to value: 2 Mod1: (midi address button1) - M1 - 2 - Direct - Set to value: 3 Mod1: (midi address button1) - M1 - 3 - Direct - Set to value: 0 Add IN Tempo/Tempo Range Tempo Range: (midi address button1) - M1 - 0 - Hold - Deck A - Set to value: 6% Tempo Range: (midi address button1) - M1 - 1 - Hold - Deck A - Set to value: 10% Tempo Range: (midi address button1) - M1 - 2 - Hold - Deck A - Set to value: 16% Tempo Range: (midi address button1) - M1 - 3 - Hold - Deck A - Set to value: 100% And now the search goes on for the LED mapping :-s A bit harder to figure out I fear ...

| Lavenia Neild 14.07.2011 | What padi_04 meant to say was, you'll want to use modifiers to accomplish this task. Every time you push your button, it should increment a modifier. Then there should be another entry that says if the modifier = whatever the max is, then it resets to 0, which would push you back to the initial setting, which is 6%. So PUSH BUTTON, M1 +1 PUSH BUTTON, COND M1 = 3, RESET TO 0 TEMPO RANGE = 6, COND M1 = 0 TEMPO RANGE = 10, COND M1 = 1 TEMPO RANGE = 16, COND M1 = 2 TEMPO RANGE = 100, COND M1 = 3 Somethign along those lines, I believe. I'm kind of new to mapping so that's the best I can believe of. |
| Nedra Fresneda 14.07.2011 | Search for the term "modifiers" in the community . |
| Alvaro Loa 14.07.2011 | oeps, sorry, forgot to mention: i'm midi mapping in Traktor Pro 2 :-) |
