Proposed Akai APC40 Traktor Pro map

Proposed Akai APC40 Traktor Pro map Posted on: 23.04.2009 by Pansy Festejo i just ordered an Akai APC40, and though I plan to use it with Ableton as intended, I'd like to also use it to control Trak Pro. Below is what I believe a potential mapping could look like. I'm definitely open to suggestions. I plan to do any EQ-ing on my Xone92, which will solve the problem of not having enough knobs for the channel EQs (though I did include an EQ Kill for the focus deck) The background image is just the basic image I butchered out of the quickstart guide. The map: http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.p...wmhmnj&thumb=5 The blank canvas: http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.p...yehzyg&thumb=5 Real life (in case anyone hasn't seen this beauty yet): http://www.mediafire.com/?xfijyxxnzmn
Shane Golia 29.04.2009	Originally Posted by RSDJMoniker yeah, the lights are mappable using midi out in tpro. this is true, but how do you get them to map like I described? Seems you can only map button lights in TPro. Are there options to map knob lights based on the position of the knob in TPro?
Pansy Festejo 22.04.2009	Originally Posted by CerebralExcretion Its a gimped version of Live 7 by the look of it! http://www.ableton.com/pages/2009/ap...mparison_chart I was going to go for this but then sat and thought about how i would use it for DJing, in the end decided i would build my own midi box just how i wanted it, after about two months designing it im almost ready to get the face plate cut Haha that sucks! Ok I suppose I'll just get Live 8 and patch it for the controller. Grats on the project, looking forward to seeing the end result!
Iola Obradovich 22.04.2009	Originally Posted by immerse it comes with it's own full proprietary version of Ableton (actually called Ableton Live Akai Professional APC Edition) but if you're already an Ableton user, it includes an upgrade patch to enable the APC40 features.

It sure is simple enough to change stuff around. As for the Ableton, it's my understanding that it comes with it's own full proprietary version of Ableton (actually called Ableton Live Akai Professional APC Edition) but if you're already an Ableton user, it includes an upgrade patch to enable the APC40 features.

Yuonne Cauthron 29.04.2009	yeah, the lights are mappable using midi out in tpro.
Shane Golia 29.04.2009	Will the cool lights around the knobs be fully mappable with Traktor Pro? I'd like to be able to, for example, assign a filter to a knob and then have the lights off at the 12 position but then have them turn on to the left when I turn the knob left and turn on to the right when I turn the knob right.
Yuonne Cauthron 24.04.2009	I just...wanted to say thank you. Tears up This is EXACTLY why this community is here. Tear sorry...i'm all choked up. our little community is growing up!
Predrag Mladenovic 22.04.2009	Nice I am between this and a 25 key novation. I just sold my mpk49 today. Bento how would you layout this device,to take advantage of Belvario's smart mixer and the traktor inputs with a firebox?

Random X 22.04.2009	No, if I am correct it does not come with it's own Live8. It comes with Live 7 LE and an update/grade kit for Live 7/8.

Random X 22.04.2009	Well judging by the map you designed, I would say: "Map it to Traktor instead."
