Traktor APC-40 (modifiers+trackselection) Posted on: 26.05.2011 by Kena Trow Hello greetings from digitaldj land using traktor-pro and an APc-40(my mapping is like 94% complete am working on it for like 7 months now LOL ) -but i'm still looking for some functions ... -1st wanna tell you i'm aware of the dumb mode etc... so the questions goes like: 1MODIFIERZzzzERS -i'm using some buttons for loop functions. but some of the functions added to loopbuttons already got like 2 modifiers (send monitor state & outfunctions for leds), since i use the same buttons for a different deck i need a third modifier -I already use 1 modifier for making those buttons to work on another deck (with the same loop functions) but i also have a modifier(/shiftbutton) to make those buttons split the looplength as for 1 beat = also 1/16; 2beats=1/8 etc 4beats=1/4 8beats=1/2 -this works for 1 deck but when using the same buttons for another deck some of the functions already got 2 modifiers so i can't apply the function of the splitted loopbeats on the 2nd deck IS THERE MAYBE A WAY AROUND like using another modifier ??? 2TRACKSELECTION -i'm not at the level of using bomes yet normal mode makes em banks DUmb mode makes em midicc's, and kills the led functions for knobs -wish i could use normal mode with the midicc's instead of banks is there a way around for this one 2 ( did maybe any1 or is any1 capable of programming a little app to enable the dumb mode instead of opening ableton etc... or something that could only convert the track selection buttons to cc's instead of banks for normal mode?) if you know more about the trackselection stuff or maybe a good thread here can u foward me to it please ( thnx in advance ) 3 LEdz updater something else, was is there a way that when opening traktor and using the apc the leds can be auto-turned on or autoupdated ? for now i'm using a button to turn all my leds on , but some parameters from like on the mixer part using the knobs for EQ when using the knobs on the apc u always have to turn em before the are on ex: when bass = at 3 o'clock on traktor but when turning on the apc the knob for bass is at 7 o'clock is there a way that i can update the leds to be at the same thing when i turn it on ??? Weird questions i'm sure many or some people are also curious for this stuff hope we can all help eachother out ^^ so i finally posted this one thnx in advance sincerly yann | |

| Rolanda Clodfelder 29.05.2011 | I had the activator light up when a track was loaded (or playing) .. I haven't fired it up in a while LOL. I "believe" there was 5 commands to get it working. Pretty sure I was using a combo of midistroke for these keys.... Activator Off : Pressed = Track load+ Monitor State + LED Activator On : Pressed = Track unload + Track load + LED off (dont believe I used monitor state here:-S Track Playing Activator LED turned back on. Pretty sure I needed to Inverse map the same keys for each command - I know it was a pain in the rear end to get those keys working properly the way I wanted. I lost the compete template a month or so ago when I was "cleaning" .. managed to find a half complete map on my drive but was a midway save without alot of the LED's mapped yet so just trying to remember how I went about it. I'm pretty sure I was only using one send monitor state on the activator / cue / rec keys though for some reason :-S Sorry cant be more help to you might play around with it in a lil bit when i get some shuteye, its been a while since I fired up Traktor with the APC :P |
| Kena Trow 29.05.2011 | i'm also using a mac so ure using the activator buttons as load buttons ??? same here but i want the leds to be all on and how i tried it doesn't work whenever adding 2 send monitor state functions the function of the knob is dead check the other tread i just made ^^ http://www.djranking s.com/community /showthread.php?t=30933 |

something else, was is there a way that when opening traktor and using the apc the leds can be auto-turned on or autoupdated ?
What about utilizing a deck Focus + using your modifiers somehow for looping. I know for track loading the way I had it set up was up/down is track select Right = Preview play/pause Left = Preview Unload Shift + up down left / right was folder / playlist browse. Activatior was my load Endoder Setup Scroll/scratch Cue mode = Pause + Focus + Not Playing Focus Select = Headphone Cue (Most of the deck function's i'd be using on the deck I'm mixing from) Pitch bend = Playing+Deck Focused Transpose = Playing+Shift+Focus Headphone Volume I could live with on a keyboard key. I set up Midistroke (free) to assign additional keystrokes for functions (of ons) combined along with midi and for some functions... I know theres something like it for PC as well. Hope it gives you some inpiration .. I'd post it up but my APC seems to be one of the first ones produced and has different values for pretty much everything (pain in the ass trying to load anyone else's templates!). I'm sure the more into it guys will help ya out |
