Launchpad for djay

Description and Instructions

Full transport, faders, kills, effects 1 and 2 for each deck, instant effects, forward and back spins, bounce looping, samples, skip, seek, forward, rewind, play, sync, cue, cue points, key on/off, key and speed reset, automix, cut, waveform toggle; it's all there via liberal use of the shift key. I might make a video showing all the functions but here's the layout:
the six glowing keys in quadrant 2 are the kills. On the right and left of those buttons is volumes up and down for both decks, the middle is line fader kill. Above that is fade left, cut, fader to middle, and fade right. The first quadrant with the glowing four buttons on the "send B" row are samples. Above the samples are instant effects for each deck and above that is effects selection. The top row of quadrant 1 is effects on/off. Quadrants 3 and 4 are Deck 1 and Deck 2 respectively. Bottom right corner of each grid is play/pause, to the left is sync etc. The second row up is the skip/seek row. Holding shift will increase and decrease the skip amount. Oh, and shift is the bottom right "arm" key. The third row up is Cue/in buttons. Hold shift to reset. The fourth row up is bounce loops. The top row loads records using user1 and 2. "Session is record. "Mixer" is automix. The arrows are transporters. Looping is done with the "volume" and "stop" keys with the keys below them for doubling and halving the loops. Play with it and check the shift key to find it all.

Cool, glad you downloaded. To get it, or any djay midi map, to work simply place it in the midi map folder for djay and plug in the device. Once the mapping file is in 'midi maps' in 'djay' and you have the launchpad plugged in, launch djay, go to MIDI and check that 'Launchpad' is available. You can also click on the file once you have it in the midi map folder. Let me know if you have questions.

I actually tried this tonight and can't seem to get it working. To start I had to create the "MIDI Mappings" folder since it didn't exist. I then placed the downloaded file in there. In djay Launchpad shows up as available but when I select it there is nothing mapped to any of the buttons. I could manually do it but then there wouldn't be any point in downloading the mapping file. Plus (and I don't know if this means anything or not) but the launchpad doesn't light up. I'm running OSX 10.7.5 and using djay 4.0.5. Any advice would be helpful.

Got it working. I hadn't updated to the latest version of djay. All good now.

Where is the midi mapping folder? You never say where this folder is.
