    Default Kontrol S4 Traktor "HOW CAN I MAP SEVERAL FX INTO ONE BUTTON (COMBO)?"

    Hey everybody,

    since I' kinda new in mapping I was wondering how I can map different FX (e.g. beatmasher & reverse) so I just have to press one button on my S4 and those FX are used simultaniously.

    (if this is the wrong forum/thread please tell me)

    Looking forward to you responses

    Adrian

    This would be under controller mappings but you simply create 2 midi functions for the 2 FX (4 commands total). 2 FX selector and 2 FX unit "X" on. Make sure they're all on the same button with the "learn" function. For both type will be button, direct, then select the FX at the bottom of the controller manager the FX on will be direct hold (or toggle if you prefer) type with a value of 1. Now if you want the value to change that takes a bit more mapping.

    Sorry, me again. I'm kinda new to this: so where do I select the FX? When I open the controler mapping I can't edit the S4 mappings...Unbenannt.jpg

    Go to YouTube and look up armyofme's 'drama sweep effect' for traktor. This should give you a place to start on mapping fx combos.

    Hey guys
    thanks for your quick answer! I'm amazed how helpful you are!


    unfortunately when I click "learn" and push the button / knob nothing happens...
    what do I have to do?

    it depends which knob you are talking about, the kontrol s4 has a mapping hardwired into it - remapping over these functions without disabling their primary function just confuses the software.
