MF Instant Gratification Mapping v1.0.3
Posted on: 29.04.2011 by Jodi Lacerra
This is an update to the Instant Gratification Mapping (see the original thread here http://www.djranking s.com/community /showthread.php?t=24514). This update to the mapping fixes the following bugs:

  • T3 Delay LED not working on Deck D
  • If FX3 is a Single effect and you activate the Beatmasher supercombo (by pressing all 4 Mash buttons) it would toggle the Trans effect on while it switched FX3 from a Single to a Group/Chained effect. You could not release the Trans effect unless you triggered the supercombo again. I most commonly ran into this problem when using the Slice function on the VCI-100 together with the MF IG mapping.

If anyone finds anything else you consider to be a bug, please comment on this thread. Thanks!

Hey January,

I know that when you hold the shift button and the efx button at the
same time that holds that effect on until you press the button again.

This works on the deckelized mapping not sure bout IG Mapping as I don't use it

Hope this helps

yeah, it aint the biggest issue, but since it doesnt always happen it can be bit bad, if you want to us a sweep and some other FX and then just when the beat drops you wanna let go, but dont know whether one or two FX will still be on or not. can ruin a drop...

I now what you talking about there with the FX, It seems to happen when you hold down certain combos of buttons. I'm trying to figure out what causes it. I dont find it to be a problem because they seem to tune down when you let go

nobody?

Regarding #4, I wonder why only some FX stay on and you have to click them again to release...? Namely both sweeps (second row from top, third button from left and bottom row, third button from the left) as well as all other FX in the bottom row. But again: this only happens sometimes. How can that be fixed?

HOWEVER, i have a few things I need ur help with:

1. second row from the top, far left button: it aint triggering a reverb, but sets a 16 bar loop. How do i get the reverb there?

2. the bank button to store an ongoing effect doesnt work, at least not always. Does it only work on certain FX combos or does it not work on certain FX at all, what the story with that?

3. Id like to have tempo adjustment/-bend options in the first row as well as the possibility to move a loop forward and backwards - if I dont have that option I will still need another controller to do that for me, but Id like to have everything in the MF, could i just manually map that in before i destroy the whole thing?

4. Sometimes the effects just randomly stay on without pressing the bank button. its not a big problem but it seems to be a bug and has the potential to really mess up a drop...anyone a fix?

5. ive heard you guys drop that the FX mapping changes or is not available if i change to external mixing mode is that correct?

6. are there any hints for the other four combos?
Okay, some issues I could resolve myself:
1. reverb issue, i dont really care too much anymore, but if anyone knows how to do it, just let me know.

2. and 4. Dont need FX staying on anymore i believe, but the fact that some FX stay on without wanting them to stay on is a bit weird, then u just have to press the button again to release it, is that a bug?

3. Tempo adjustments are on the bottom row (with shift). The "loop move" function ill try to map into there somewhere, shouldnt be a problem right?

5. and 6. anyone suggestions?

For some reason when I use the beatmasher, it holds for 4 bars then appears to move a bar and keeps repeating, I dont know why this is happening its really annoying and Im contemplating going back to the deckalized focus for mashing up.

- penny drops -

I had though before 4 banks mode was referring to the # of effect banks enabled in the Traktor settings.

Now I see that not only does Traktor need to be setup for this but also the MF itself via a little on-board hardware mapping config via it's 'Menu mode'.

So then, thanks for the response and for any other N00bs getting frustrated out there read this before asking further....

Hi there, I just bought a MidiFigher off DJTT about two weeks ago and I use it with TS1.2.7

I can't get the mapping to work properly with Deck B.

Have tried numerous times importing using the button below the .tsi twice.
Imported all settings except GUI layout
Have set all ports to 'midi fighter'

Deck A works fine as far as I can tell.

Pressing buttons while in Deck B only ever seems to activate Effect Bank 1 FX (when pressing top 4 buttons, and 2 FX on the fourth of these...) but never 3 FX or 4 FX.

So as an example, the row of buttons second from the bottom triggers the beat masher fine when Deck A is in focus but when Deck B is in focus all the buttons do is turn on the FX banks for Deck A and turn off any currently enabled on FX for Deck B. Deck B FX 2,3&4 never get activated.

I've racked my brain, compared mapping parameters from Deck A to B for the same beatmasher functions... man I just don't get what I could be doing wrong and I will go to bed feeling defeated by technology..... ;(

Couldn't be the firmware could it? The MF is only a couple of weeks old...

In the instant gratification mapping, it's set up so that certain buttons load and activate preset fx.

How do i set, save, and then map to midi my own fx settings?
Tatum Ansaldo
04.06.2011
it's because of the order in which settings are imported and applied. The mappings go in before the effects, so if the effects are in the wrong order or not all enabled then different ones apply. Hence the need for a double import, and hence the fact that the other import method doesn't work because it only imports controller mappings.
Darla Bosack
04.06.2011
INDEED!

Use the import button at the left bottom corner of the configuration screen!

If you don't do that, the buttons will map to different effects.

Where can we find more about the reason behind this?
Tatum Ansaldo

Guys, if you've changed your mappings for the S4, or you're using other controllers then first use the big export button and save your controller mappings somewhere. Then use the big import button (look in my sig) and import the MF mapping TWICE. Restart Traktor. Then reimport your backed up mappings using add>import instead of the big import button.

If you haven't changed your S4 mapping then you don't need to back up, as unplugging the S4 then plugging it in again should reload the default mapping.

flashflooder, I had imported the tsi file initially by hidding the add then import button under the midi fighter in the controller manager. I made sure the ports for all the decks were set to the midi fighter both in and out.

I then clicked the import button at the bottom left of preferences and loaded them again. This caused my S4 settings to disappear and the S4 stopped working. I closed Traktor and loaded it again and the S4 works but the effects at the top look different (I suppose this is normal).

My questions are:
1) How do you import midi fighter mappings without erasing S4 settings?
2) Like others in this thread, the effects aren't as described in the picture for me:

bottom row: left to right:
Flanger flux - Flanger flux - T3 Delay - LOFI

2nd row from bottom: left to right:
Delay - delay - delay - delay

3rd row :
iceverb - beatmasher - filter - gather (shape)

How do I get this to work like it should? Thanks!

I assume you mean external mixing mode, in which case don't worry, the 2 are completely unconnected. 4 banks external mode is only for people who have added an extra 4 buttons to their Midifighter.

Hi everybody!

Finally I have my very own Midi Fighter.
TS Pro2 installed on a Win Vista Laptop.
Imported this mapping twice.
Everything is working properly, but only on deck a!

Nothing happens to deck b..

What am I doing wrong??

Cheers,

Are you using Traktor Pro version 1.2.4 or greater (i.e., more recent)?

What's most likely happening is that you either have changed FX bank 3 to a Single effect or you have changed the FX3 grouped slot where the "transpose stretch" lives to a different effect.

Unfortunately Traktor is a little dumb and when you try to change the FX panel mode or the FX selection while also trying to trigger on the effect, it will not activate the effect unless the fx panel mode and fx selection are already what it expects.

As a result, it sometimes takes one press of an effect (or in this case doing a supercombo) once to make sure the effect settings are properly set up so it will activate it the next time.

For those of you using our VCI-100 mapping with the MF Instant Grat mapping, you will commonly run into this when using the "Slicer" on the VCI-100 and Supercombos (the beatmasher one especially) on the MF mapping.

Hopefully NI will fix this eventually.

I had a similar problem. If you can get into menu mode, go to the LED preferences, turn them off, quit menu mode, restart, enter menu mode and turn them on again. It did the job for me.

Hey, thanks alot for doing this and providing it to us! This is really cool. For anyone having problems with effects not loading properly load the tsi over again until u see the effects appear properly. I had the same issue but like Ean says in the video u may have to load it twice so i did then it worked great. Are u working on anything else? I have a great traktor pro 2 mapping for the maschine with two decks and two sample decks with sample deck triggers, and a sampler mode similar to the vci-100 and other effect controls. If u need something like that i would be glad to hook u up. Thanks again man.

to fuzzy to see. but i have it kind of working.
my unit will not hold the fx like the demo said it can. when you press fx buttons and hit the top row to freeze the sound. well instead of holding the sound fx at that point it just turns off the effect that is on the bottom row.. idk im using NI stuff and its a lil glitchie.. but as a generic controller in serato its fine. just can map like i want to in serato.

It usually goes to 0 pretty fast, but when stuck at, lets say, 20, it really messes up the sound.
I've been trying to replicate this bug and I simply can't get it to happen. Is there any specific pattern causing this to happen and can you replicate it every time you try?

Photojojo you've saved my day. I had imported the mapping just once, so twice was the solution.
Setting the in/out ports to the MF in each one solved the LED problem.

Also, make sure that your Midi Fighter is set to Channel 3. Somehow I managed to get mine changed to Channel 4 after a reflash and it took me a while to figure out why Instant Gratification suddenly didn't work.

Are in four banks internal or external? You need to be in internal. Did you use the big import button and do it twice? you should have four different MF mappings in the controller manager so you'll need to set the in/out ports to the MF in each one.
