CHAMELEON MIXER --- X1 MK2

Description and Instructions


=== FX UNITS HAVE TO BE IN GROUP MODE IN ORDER TO SWITCH THE MIXER MAPPING ON/OFF ===


Simple yet powerful mapping that gives you direct control over the internal mixer in TRAKTOR PRO 2

With this as your default mapping you always have a portable mixer "under the hood" of your X1 MK2 that allows you to perform and record smooth mixes at home or on the go. Just press a button and you're back in control over your effects and everything works as normal.

Not only do you get full control over EQ levels, but mapped are also EQ kill switches for quick (or lazy) mixing.

The top knobs are used as volume faders (12 o'clock = 50% volume) and when BOTH Deck A and Deck B are in "mixer mode", the FX assign buttons are used for managing your headphone monitoring.

Because your FX units have to be set to group mode in order for you to toggle on the mixer mode, you don't lose function of the top FX buttons for switching ON/OFF any effects you want to run in single mode, and the same goes for the FX assign buttons.

I noticed that the Hot Cue buttons' LED's where very dim in the default mapping so I re-mapped those to be brighter and more intuitively coloured.


=== NEW IN VERSION 1.0 ===

  • SOFT TAKEOVER is activated across the board which means that you can now seamlessly switch between controlling FX and EQ.
  • Holding down SHIFT now lets you control the FILTER with the top knobs.
  • CROSSFADER has been added. (see picture for instructions on how to operate the BROWSE ENCODER)

mapping doesnt seem to work anymore with 2.11.

I've changed 'Value' from 1 to 0 on High/Middle/Low adjust mappings and it works for me on 2.11 perfectly. Just select adjusts in Assignment Table and change values in 'Mapping Details'-Modifier Conditions

Well, all in all I really love this mapping, but one crucial thing doesn't work for me. The top fx knob is not controlling the track volume, which is pretty essential to use this as a mixer. Everything else is functioning as it should. Any suggestions are welcome!

Had to map the play/pause button and the FX toggles aren't working. They only turn on when they are selected as EQ kills (which will turn on the effect and kill the EQ at the same time). Loops also jumping from double the ammount (can only select 2/8/32 etc, can't select 1). Great, GREAT mapping; just needs a little work!

It is most likely because you have more than one mapping active, these issues should not occur if everything is set up correctly.

I'm just getting into midi controllers and Traktor pro 2 i had the same issues. Ive spent hours Googling and on you tube trying teach myself how to use it all is a mine field of errors but im getting there... So.... to all those that might be having this issue or similar, its a simple fix once you know how. ..!!! Basically you have a programme/mapping conflict, two or more programs/maps trying to work all at the same time. (i had unknowingly loaded 4 !!!) Start up Traktor - Preferences - Controller Manager - Device - Click drop down menu ( little arrow ) . You will see list of controllers you are using. If you see more than one mapping X1 Mk2 in your list, either export save to a file or delete if any are duplicated. This is done by first click X1 Mk2 map you wish to remove, then click Edit - either export or delete all X1 Mk2 maps until you just have CHAMELEON MIXER 1.O X1 Mk2 Now got to Effects on Preferences - Under FX Panel Mode change Fx1 & Fx 2 to group. Close Preferences, Your Welcome 😊 p.s. if i have got any of this incorrect I'd be happy to know #stilllearningthissh1t

For some reason I can't get the the browser to go full screen on push, and if i have touch enabled, I can't see the crossfader? Great mapping btw
Andreas Skoglösa over 9 years ago

Thanks! Well, pushing the browse encoder doesn't actually set the browser to full screen. I will have a look and see if it makes sense to add that to the mapping, would be a nice feature but I suspect it would interfere with the crossfader...
