MIDI mapping xdj aero with leds

Hi,
i'm working on this mapping.

I made the job but now i can't go forth.

My problem are the modifier, i mapped on "Jog drum" and "sample launch" buttons on both players.

They interfer among them and can be utilized, but only one per time ( example : turn on mod 1, off mod 1 then turn mod 3. off mod3 then turn mode 2. off mode 2 then turn....and so on) if you turn on two modifier together you'll get a lot of jam.

Here a shot with wath and how i mapped the aero

Click to open the image and "ctrl +" to enlarge.

I wrote the NON-obvius functions only.

obviusly, volume fader are mapped as volume fader, gain as gain and so on.

Player A and B are mapped the same i showed different functions on different players only to avoid confusion when reading.

The Modifiers (jog drums A and B and Sample Launch A and B) doesn't work properly. They interfer among them.

The same for the lights.

I hope in your help and suggestions.

regards

Here the mapping file, to see it press SHOW:

Also please avoid asking the same in multiple topics.

From your description it's not to clear what happens, other then sound being wrong.

You should be able to use all sample pads together (or any combination). So could you try figuring out if some other command is triggered (by using Cross interface to disable it)

Hi RoJec,

In Player A is highlighted in yellow what works only with "Jog Drum" pressed and the up arrow in red circle show what works with "SHIFT" pressed

In Player B are green buttons wich works only if "sample launch" is pressed.

Player A and B are mapped identical but i draw this way, with some command on the left and some other on the right, to avoid confusion when reading.

Pads work perfect.

The modifiers are wrong:
modifiers are "sample launch (A and B)" and "Jog Drum (A and B)". if i press one of theme it's all perfect, if i press more then one modifier at the same time... !!!chaos and confusion!!!

And, due to the lights don't work in that case, is difficult understand what modifier i have to turn off to back at the starting point.

@ RoJec
My first topic was to ask a manual, a reference guide that could teach me how to map.

Since that day i made this mapping.

This topic is to ask help to close this job 'cause i don't find a way to end it by myself.

Based on your current map and what you want to do, I asked you to post your map to identify a good starting point for you and then point you in the right direction. Making our interaction a learning experience for both of us.
I pretty much know how to do what you asked. Normally I start by the current map to give me pointers to the next step. So if you provide the map I can identify those pointers, tell you how I identified them, point you to the next step and tell you why that should be next and then try to answer your questions based on technical facts along the way. It is up to you if you want the help.
