LED pulse mod on my midi fighter (beat phase monitor?)

[1voud]

Hi everybody,

Today I had the time to do the LED mod on my midi fighter. All works great (as seen on my attached video), but I want to have my LED to pulsate using the beat phase monitor. Is this possible? Because I cannot find the midi mapping for the LED in the list in traktor (pro 2).

I'm using the deckalized + instant gratification mapping.

I have mine set to be the output of the Beat Phase Monitor for the Deck Focus, with a controller range of 0-0, inverted. This gives me a very short pulse EXACTLY on the grid.

DJ_dB, how, exactly, did you go about mapping that led? I have no idea how to even find that led.

can anyone ID this part? i dont know how to use it/what its for,
... i am preparing to do the MF LED mod. .
many thanksIMG00269-20120401-1916.jpg

Looks like a smd resistor. Usually to power and LED you need a resistor to keep the LED from getting too much power and burning out. Those things are somewhat of a pain to solder unless you have some practice and/or a really steady hand. A good pair of tweezers can help when you're trying to position it.

Definitely an smd something. Definitely tough to solder.

That's a resistor. But a very small one .
Best thing you can do is to go to an electronics supplieer and ask for a normal resistor used in electronics. They are easier to solder.
They look like this (they can have a blue color instead of brown):

Edit: And it needs to be 220 Ohm if I'm not mistaken.

220 ohm resistor for a blue light. If you choose to use an LED with higher voltage drop, it's okay to use a lesser resistor. I actually put a 150 ohm resistor on my board for a blue LED and it gives it just a little more brightness.
