#MAPPING TRAKTOR F1 SOFTWARE#

Generic keyboard: Creates an empty mapping for assigning your computer keyboard keys to control TRAKTOR.

Add.: This opens a drop-down menu with various options for adding new mappings to the Device list.

This setting may be overwritten for individual Assignments by the corresponding setting in the Mapping Details (see below). Available options are Deck A through D and Focus (meaning the current target is momentarily defined by the currently active section / Deck in TRAKTOR's main screen).

Device Target: Selects a default target of the TRAKTOR software interface for the currently selected Device.Alternatively, you may select a virtual MIDI port if you use this for software MIDI routing between two applications on the same computer. It is set to All Ports by default and should be set to the MIDI output port value corresponding to your hardware MIDI controller or MIDI interface.

Out-Port: This defines the MIDI output port for the selected mapping.It is set to All Ports by default and should be set to the MIDI input port value corresponding to your hardware MIDI controller or MIDI interface. In-Port: This defines the MIDI input port for the selected mapping.Note: We recommend to set the ports to None for mappings that are not being used in order to avoid undesired triggering of MIDI signals and events. In other words, the currently selected mapping in the Device list can be edited by the user but all other mappings contained in the list remain active at all times. The selection does not define the active mapping, since all mappings are always active unless you set the In-Port and Out-Port fields (see below) to None. This field selects a mapping from the list for editing. Device: In the Controller Manager, a controller mapping is called Device.It consists of the follow menus and sub-menus: In this section you can manage the mappings for your devices and set their most basic properties, including the computer keyboard, MIDI and (Advanced) HID controllers. Note: If you own a Traktor Ready controller, we advice you to load the predefined mapping automatically via the Setup Wizard.

You may also resize the window by dragging the edges of the Preferences window. This means that you can keep it open while configuring your controller and check the added functionality simultaneously in the main Traktor user interface. All changes made in the Controller Manager will come into effect immediately. Furthermore, a user can specify the behavior and other properties of each command in the Mapping Details section. Each individual control of the currently selected Device is added to the Assignment Table of the mapping. The Device Setup allows you to globally manage your controller mappings, or Devices. Each function of the software can be mapped to one or several user-defined control elements of the hardware controller. A controller mapping establishes a relationship between the control elements (knobs, faders, buttons, encoders) of your hardware MIDI controller and the functions of the TRAKTOR software. The Controller Manager is the place to create, edit, import and export controller mappings. You can also view the video version of this article. This article describes the settings and functions of the Controller Manager menu in TRAKTOR's Preferences.
