Yes, but there are some limitations, and non-techies typically don’t do this. Most home networks are assigned a dynamic IP address which keeps changing so either people who would visit your site have to be frequently given a new address or you have to…

[quote comment="15041"]I’m using a Ps3 sixaxis controller for some of our gigs, and I like to map the smart eq to the tilt of the controller. As you tilt it to the left, it ups the bass on Deck A and cuts it on Deck B. Once you get past the halfway mark at 45 degrees, it starts to cut Deck A’s high and boost Deck B’s. I also have the PS button set to toggle between Transport Mode and Effects Mode. Transport Mode has all the buttons assigned to play, pause, cue points and deck pitch and tempo. Effects mode switches everything over to EQ and effects.
I have another trick I use sometimes for songs that have long breakdowns with no drums, or sections without much going on. I toggle on the beatmasher during the intro beat or during some vocals or something interesting, but keep the mix turned down. It’s set to a full bar length, so it’s sampling a full four beats. Then in the breakdown or whatever, I turn the mix up to bring in the kick or sampled material, to add some interest to an otherwise dull portion of the song. It’s a quick way to sample something from the song, without having to duplicate it to another deck.[/quote]

Hi, how u connect Traktor with ps3 SIXAXIS? You use MiJoy Pro VTS plug in?

oh, and if anyones trying to watch that Richie Hawtin video just for the smart browsing section, it's at 3:00

In this example, the knob does the following:

- if to the most left, the effect is turned off

- turning the knob to the right will do multiple things:

– selecting the desired effect

– turning the effect to ON

– turning the wet dry mix

- going back to the 0 position disables the effect again.

This uses some tricks that tell Traktor that the knob is actually a button. So if your MIDI setup changes in the future it might break this smart knob.

…watch out for the (!!)'s below:-)

Traktor Pro Settings:

(1) Effect Selection

Control: Effect Select

Channel: FX Unit 1 (this example assumes it is set to advanced mode)

Type: Direct

Type of Controller: Button (!!)

Set to Value: enter your desired effect

(2) Turning the Effect on

Control: Effect On

Channel: FX Unit 1

Type: Hold

Type of Controller: Button (!!)

enable INVERT!!

(3) Dry/Wet Mix

Control: Dry/Wet Advanced

Channel: FX Unit 1

Type: Direct

Type of Controller: Analog Fader/Knob

Have fun andagoodone!

[quote comment=""]The problem lies in how the Belvario smart-mixer(aka Smart-Compression aka) is wired together to start with, replacing the compressor out for a live7 compressor isnt going to solve the issues that the design has to start with.

From what i could tell with Moldovers setup he compresses the material in stages which is much more ideal than the Belvario setup which compresses the material in one stage for all channels. However the main flaw with the Belvario setup is that when you turn up a send in the Belvario setup the material is sidechain compressing itself which causes colouring of that audio channel. This is called an “effect” on the Belvario page, but i personally call it a flaw in the design itself.

Its pretty clear that Moldovers smartmixer is pretty difficult to setup for people who cannot understand reaktor or sidechain compression techniques. If we can get an Ableton file that anyone can load, even with a demo copy off the Ableton site without having to download any VST effects i would like to think that the Smart-Mixing idea would get alot more much deserved attention.

Theres a discussion starting up on the forums for anyone who is in discussing this futher. Sorry if i hijacked your comments there Ean :(

Especially the stuff you describe in the "Smart Knobs/FX" sections tickles my fancy. I'm building my own tsi from scratch, and TPro made it nearly impossible to use another tsi as cheat sheet because they removed pages (and tsi-files are, opposed to tks barely in a human-readable xml format).

Smart compression is the holy grail of mixing, what Moldover can achieve with it is just awesome. Now, do anyone know where to find the parameters and routing he is using? Does he use the Live 7 comp? Does he tweak those parameters on the fly or are they fixed?

In short: Can the real Moldover please stand up? :) And teach us the way. We're not worthy, but we're eager to learn.

Else, I'm all with you Bento, mail me (you have my mail cced on the last round of mail Ean sent us about the logo) and tell me where you're at, I'm far from being very good at Live and compressors, but I sure can try.
