TRAKTOR S2 & Cross

[GIUSYDEEDJ]

Hi to all,
just one question!
Is there someone who use traktor S2 with Cross?
In MIDI mapping I find only traktor S4.
Traktor S2 works with the same mapping??
Thank you in advance.

other than waiting on a postive reply ,, the options avaible is to
1/try to use the existing mapping on the unit and see what works and what doesnt ,,
2/duplicate the mapping and alter it to work with the info you have discovered in option 1 ,,
after this the info you have will be helpful in setting up a mapping for the unit with assistance of one of the MIDI monsters on the fourm ,

myself havent graduated to that level ,, havent put in the work nessary to get there

man dont have a crystal ball too see that one ,,
kinda hoping that m v would saddle with a company and have a taliored /custom controller made ie maybe Pioneer ,, thought the possibilities where there when rekbox was set up ,, but only the future will tell ,,
for my usage the control pro 1 and 2 are perfect ,, but not shure if could survive the rigours of full scale use ,,

couple of options ,, figdj has expanded the MIDI mappings of the ddj-sx ,, also the U-Mix Control Pro 2 ,, and the Vfx controller also
thinking you will have to browse the net a see which controller can best suit your needs and get that option going ,,
dont think it will ever be a perfect world ,, and wouldnt know what to do in such a place

FYI - Tracktor controllers are notoriously difficult to get them to work because they use a custom HID natively and the controls send MIDI signals that are basically worthless out of the box.

To really get the most out of the controls you need to use the Kontroller Editor to create a new MIDI mapping and then map that MIDI back into Cross. It's a major undertaking... I did some of the early work in getting the kontroller editor setup for the S4 and it wasn't easy. The S2 will require starting almost from scratch with all the mappings but the S4 mapping would be a good start.
