MF Deckalized InstaFX Mapping
MF Deckalized InstaFX Mapping Posted on: 31.01.2011 by Jodi Lacerra Hey guys,This is a mapping I made a while ago based on the Deckalized Focus mapping (http://www.djranking s.com/community /showthread.php?t=14435) that replaced all the Tempo controls on the bottom row of buttons with Instant FX buttons. I used it with my VCI and never had any use for the Tempo control buttons. I figured it's worth sharing. Once I have some time, I'll try to make a proper visual layout but for now, here's what it does in essence: Each Button on the Bottom Row will trigger an effect and then once you hold that button, the adjacent buttons adjust the rate of the effect (the buttons to the right make it go up in value, buttons to the left go down in value). You can only use one of the effects at a time because once you push one, the other buttons change to be rate adjustments. Try it out and you'll see. Other than that, Shift+Sync = Deck Focus - & Shift+Cue = Deck Focus + The rest is Deckalized. I just figured it was worth posting because while I used to have ideas of improving this mapping, I never got around to it but I gave it to some friends that use it, so it's worthy of the community at least. | |

Once I find that, it'll be easy. I just don't want to recreate it all and besides the InstaFX on the bottom row, it is almost exactly like the Deckalized focus. |
Evangeline Abraha 04.02.2011 | Looking forward to trying this one out. Nice work Flashflooder !!

Tawnya Attia 04.09.2011 | I'm curious.... does this mapping work with the Midifighter Pro's ? Would love to use it in traktor 2..... |
Jeanine Droney 04.09.2011 | Chris: I really... I mean REALLY like... this mapping. I'm surprised that there are not more replies here. I believe it's because Ian did make a video. Nothing stopping you, the great flashflooder, from posting one You have given us some degree of accurate control over the slicer, gater and reverse grain values (as opposed to jogwheels and faders on the vci-100) is very interesting and fun to play with. I actually prefer this over the Insta-grat mapping (which is awesome btw). Thank you for all your hard work! This is awesome! |

Cruz Raz 12.02.2011 | I believe this mapping is still the best for my needs. Still I would like to see the bottom row from the "Instant Gratification Mapping" and the super combos added to this mapping. Hope you will give it a go :-) And thank you for the mapping! |
Tatum Ansaldo 12.02.2011 | Poor flashflooder, he has so many requests to deal with... including mine |
Vince Donohoue 12.02.2011 | There appears to be a number of bugs for me in this mapping. Like Shift + Sync toggles focucs but goes A->D->B->A , and Shift + Cue doesn't drop the cue, instead is also toggles focus but in A->C->D->A ordering. Any one else? [edit] Just re-read the first post and realized S+Cue was changed to not drop cue, but the order still seems broken |
Carin Mcalevy 09.02.2011 | hey thanks again for the response however i was wondering would it be possible to add the supercombo 1 to this mapping when pressing the beatmasher buttons in succession? |
Celina Fedyk 05.02.2011 | Yo Flashflooder thanks for the mapping, I have been a long time lurker and this mapping forced me to post. I have edited the amounts and effect types to my liking and it is a great new feature for midi-fighter! |

Scarlett Saupp 03.02.2011 | Loving the mapping so far flashflooder. Gave it a tinker and shoehorned it into my mpd18. Have assigned the single fader to control master tempo when shift is held, and to directly control FX parameters when an FX button is held. Gonna tinker with FX used (I never use reverse grain for example) and have a jam with it this evening. Ta muchly! |

Laraine Manzano 02.02.2011 | Great modified mapping! Well done! I had never used midifighter`s tempo controls too - jogwheels are much convenient. I noticed that values of "effect 1 amount" (i mean gater effect) for four bottom buttons was 0.3, 0.5, 0.625, 0.775. I changed it to 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 1, because the values 0.625 and 0.775 are same. |
Cruz Raz 02.02.2011 | Love it! Thanks! |
Scarlett Saupp 02.02.2011 | Sweet.. I'm gonna grab this and use it with one of my mpd18 banks. thanks a heap flashflooder - I always enjoy a bit of instant fx button mashing fun. |
Tatum Ansaldo 02.02.2011 | will try this... WHEN MY NEW MIDI FIGHTER ARRIVES IN 2 DAYS!!!!!!! (soz for going OT) and yes, would really appreciate an AB only focussed mapping. |
Russ Strutt 02.02.2011 | Thanks a bunch! My iPad is gonna join the midi battle!! |

Danae Dumler 01.02.2011 | Awesome! Looking forward to using this; I never use the pitch controls either. |
Russ Strutt 01.02.2011 | dude you wouldnt have a list of the notes the midi fighter puts out would you?? im trying something cool... cheers mark |
Gilma Marchini 01.02.2011 | I'll try this out in the morning! If I find use for it I'll make a non-focused version ;D |
