    Default Maschine 4 Traktor: Testers Wanted!

    Fellas, I wanna share my mapping with you. It's a little mapping for get familiar with Traktor. It's not done yet, but it's a milestone and ready for testing. I was inspired by Ean's Track Prep Tool, so that was also my main focus. It's exactly what I need, so if it's not fitting your workflow, that's ok

    What's included?
    - Track Preparation Mode (no keyboard or mouse needed at all)
    - Macro: Analyze Tracks and append to Preparation List
    - Switch View to Preparation List (your prepList should be Favorite 1 or you can change it in the controller Manager)
    - 8 Hotcues for every Deck
    - Preview Player
    - Kill Switches for every Deck (Lows, Mids, Highs)
    - Macro: Kill Switches for all Decks at once (Lows, Mids, Highs)
    - "mute" and "sampling" buttons work as "shift" button for easy handling
    - Loop Recorder + Copy Loops to RMX Decks 3 and/or 4
    - Audio Recorder
    - Comment for every mapped function, macros in perfect order to understand (sort column by comments)

    The ideal workflow for track preparation mode (remember: "mute" = shift)
    - turn on track preparation mode (note repeat button)
    optional: --------------------
    - use your controller to browse to a folder with tracks you wanna prepare
    - hit "select" = tracks will be analyzed (don't use auto grid) and moved to preparation list
    - hit "scene" to switch to preparation list (again, preparation list should be your favorite folder #1, otherwise change in controller manager
    - hit shift + "erase" to load track
    - use "Volume" Knob to zoom into waveform
    --------------
    - use your jogwheel to scrub forward to first downbeat
    - hit "grid" to set grid marker
    - optional: hit "restart" to set a 4 bar loop"
    - hit "play" to set master clock to tracks bpm and turn on tick (use shift + play to turn tick on/off manually)
    - adjust phase with "<" and ">" buttons, use shift + "<" and ">" to adjust bpm
    - use shift + "erase" for beatjump +32, shift + "rec" for beatjump -32
    - when your grid sits perfekt hit shift + grid to add a load marker on first downbeat
    - hit hotcue A 1 (pad 13) to remap loadmarker to hotcue 1
    - hit shift + erase to load next track (when loading next track, bpm get locked... when loading prev track bpm get unlocked)


    Using Hotcues:
    - Hit pads to store hotcues
    - Hit shift + pad to delete hotcue
    - Shift + Hotcue 1 does nothing to prevent load markers from beeing deleted by accident.

    What's missing?
    I will add feature request and suggestions for improment here
    - Unload RMX Deck Slots

    Known Bugs
    Here I will list bugs
    - Loop Recorder: Load Loop to RMX Deck C Slot 1: Loop goes to Slot 3
    - BPM locking and unlocking doesn't work (for some users)


    I hope you guys enjoy this. Your feedback is appreciated!!! Have fun!
