What is going on?
This is Scott Magno DJ MadFlip here with uniquesquared.com.
Hey man, we've got NS6 by Numark working with Traktor Pro 2.
You guys asked for it, we wanted to show a video on it, so let's check it out how we
got this done.
Alright so the first thing you want to do is go to our blog and download this particular
mapping.
Go ahead and save to your desktop or wherever and once you're in Traktor Pro 2 go to your
preferences, you're going to go into the controller manager here, you want to add and then down
to import that setting.
Once you find that.
we've got that right here on our desktop, go ahead and import that setting.
We've already got it in so I don't want to open it up again.
Once you do that you will find that you have got decks C and D, A and B, the platters,
the loops and browsers, and also the mixer and main functions all for Numark USB audio
device.
Select that, make sure your ports are on Numark for in and out and you should be ready to
rumble it up.
Ok so now we've got this up and running, and you can see the layout that I have here.
We've purposely made it super wide, that way you can see every single knob, every slider
on all four decks.
You don't have to have it that way but for visual feedback we wanted to go ahead and
show you that.
Ok so starting off you can see that we've got line levels for all of our decks here.
We've got EQ and all of that working, and our platters, we've got that going right here.
Our pitch adjust.
So all of that is pretty standard, you can see we have it all working.
We can even go through our files here, browse and load into each deck like so.
And switch that deck over, so we've got all four decks loaded as you can see everything
is up and running.
There are a couple of things that I wanted to tell you guys about our particular mapping.
The NS6 has two effects that you can choose from and from those effects you've got the
parameters you can have the effects parameter and then also the amount of dry/wet of that
effect that you have.
So that is what we have, you also have the effects select.
So we mapped it like this with a chained selection within the effects.
But in that chained effect you will see that we have no effect on your second and third
chained effects for each side.
Now we did that because we didn't get deep enough to map this for an advanced effect
because we wanted to show basically a very elementary, entry level setup just to get
you up and running.
Of course you guys can modify, this particular mapping and customize it however you need
to.
That's the beauty of Traktor Pro 2, it's just always been that way where you can kind of
just customize it yourself.
So those effects are going to be here, I can select through my different effects.
Right, and then I can turn that effect on and off on the NS6.
Then I can control the parameter of that effect, and also the dry/wet will be with your NS6
FX mix slider.
So let me show you guys that that's working, go ahead and put that loop on.
So I can select effect A, pick a different effect.
Alright so you get the idea.
The effects work, our looping section works just fine.
The last thing that I wanted to tell you guys was the filters.
Now the filters on Traktor are usually going to be controlled with a knob.
In this sense we have it mapped out to the strip search.
If you guys can see that, we have each filter on a strip search.
It's kind of our best option for that particular, I know it will take a little bit to get used
to, maybe you guys can find a better way to map that, and feel free to share it with us.
Alright so we have got the TSI mapping for this available to you.
Just check out the description below and we will have a link to our blog so you can download
it for yourself.
Any other questions just leave me a comment here and I'll be happy to answer it personally.
