Akai LPD8 and Traktor Pro(All-in-one controls)

[DJ P.L.U.R]

You think you could make one works well with the Hercules RMX? I would greatly appreciate it!

If you can forward it to my email -> radikaldubstep@gmail.com

Thanks again!

I'm extremely impressed with this, thankyou so much! Works flawlessly with Traktor 2.

If anyone has any mixes: recordings or video's I would love to see how all of you are using it!!! (As I have added a VCI to my setup and don't use my LPD8 with this mapping anymore.

[djmaxoffical]

so what you need to do for all of you is change the cc# for all the knobs in the lpd8 editor, and comit evry time you cange but the tsi wont work so you will have the chage it yourself in traktor for the right knob.

I really enjoy your settings, Is it possible to affect audio samples (mp3 or WAV) to the LPD8 and connect it to traktor, If yes, how?

Many thanks in advance**

** 03/04/2010 - V1.2 mapping is up fixed Eq kills and some other bugs.

I tried to package as much into the mapping as I could. Keep in mind that I use a keyboard with hotkeys to load songs and for simple deck control (Play/pause, monitor select, and some crossfader control). Also note that when switching between programs on the LPD8 the knobs will snap to where the knob is currently(from the previous program youwer in) if you move it at all. If you do not touch it when you are in a new program it will not change it's value.

You will need to load the presets contained in the attached Zip file through the Akai LPD8 software before loading the attached tsi in traktor. Note: if Traktor is open and reading your LPD8 the LPD8's software will not be able to recognize that the controller is plugged in. Simply exit Traktor and the software will be able to read the LPD8 is running.

Does anyone with Traktor 2 use this? If not I'll ask if anyone could anyone test this for Traktor 2 for me? I have not made the upgrade yet.

Hi!

I downloaded the presets OK, yet, the tsi file is downloading as a document/xml file vs exe file. I am using a Mac. ANy thoughts? Thanks!

UPDATE (4/1/13): Got it to work by renaming file. Thanks and great job with this!

[wssrt]

Can anyone upload the exported Traktor Presets?

Thx
