Download the mapping here:
http://www.djranking s.com/wp-conten...4Banks-1.0.zip

This mapping requires 4 banks mode to be activated

Learn how to enable 4 banks mode here:
http://www.djranking s.com/community /showthread.php?t=9961

This mapping was designed for the S4 but is compatible with Traktor Pro and all controllers.

If you have an older MF (pre 2/2011) you will need to update the firmware

I have the same problem. I updated my firmware successfully. When I enter the menu mode to set the 4 Banks mode I only get two options: Off (no LEDs) or External (4 LEDs). I do not get the option for Internal. I have tried reflashing my MF and still have the same problem. Any suggestions?

From the post linked in the first thread here
http://www.djranking s.com/community /showthread.php?t=24514

New features include:
  • Fourbanks mode has more options: Fourbanks Internal uses the top 4 keys to select banks. Fourbanks External uses the expansion digital inputs as bank select keys.
  • MIDI implementation now has a fixed layout, "basenote" is no more.
  • Expansion port buttons and faders always have the same Note and CC numbers regardless of the Fourbanks mode used.
  • Bank select keys emit NoteOn/NoteOff events when selected.
  • Menu Mode pages improved and simplified.

so im having problems with not being able to have anything save into the banks, instead they mimick the top and bottom rows with the same effects.

also another problem the only effects that work for deck b are the #2 effects

I've reflashed the midi fighter with the new firmware several times and the same problem occurs.

Also i have activated the 4 banks mode, but am not sure if i need to use the external or internal mode! Does the internal mean all the lights are off and the external are all the lights on?!

Can anyone help with these problems?! I have Traktor Pro 1.2.7 if that helps at all!

I tried this and it worked for me. Perhaps the MFU Updater program fetches the wrong FW at the moment.
can you provide any instructions on how to do this on a mac step by step. have the same problem

Great! Vote in the poll to offer your support. We can make this happen!

Very strange. any advice?

you have to set the bank mode to internal or else it wont save. hold the top left button and plug your MF in, hit the 5th button and set it to internal mode. that should fix it for you.

The mapping doesn't hold the combo FX if you press the page buttons. I had a few problems of FX sticking even when I let go or toggled them off. It's really fun and I'm going to start using it, but it would seem it's not perfect.

Great start/job DJTT ;D

How do you ge the FX to show up properly in Traktor Pro? Every time I import the preset, it shows up with all the wrong FX selected. That's normally not a problem for mappings, but for this one, I don't even know what they're all supposed to be.

Yes, that's correct, you'll just have to make sure to assign the correct mapping to the MF you want. In a lot of cases, the Midi Fighters aren't listed differently in the In/Out Port lists so it's easy to confuse which one is which, especially when you need to set the ports for multiple mappings.

Yes, as was said, you can Add... -> Import in the Controller Manager. But you may need to Import the Effect Settings for the MF_FX mapping to function properly, so you may need to export your Custom S4 mapping first and then Add->Import that after loading the MF_FX mapping (since you may need to use the large Import button for that, haven't tested it yet)

I used echo freeze on bank A then switched to bank B to use the beatmasher transpose combo, then switched back to A to take of the echo freeze and bank B never came back. Is this unusual? Or am I just raging too hard?
Do you have the newest firmware? That's the only reason I can believe of logically, or your Traktor isn't updated, not sure. Update your Midifighter to the 4Bank firmware, then enable it. Just as Ean said at the top of the post.

What Traktor Pro version are you running?
