Lou's F1 Effects (with video demo & all 4 decks enabled)

Description and Instructions

LOU F1 Effects with all 4 Decks Enabled

Here is my updated F1 Effects Kontrol Mapping. Due to feedback from Traktor users, I have added the use of Decks C and Deck D. You can now use all 4 decks with Lou’s F1 Effects. Previously you could only use Deck A and Deck B. Thank you for your feedback. Please refer to the pdf attached for more information on the layout.

This mapping can be used alongside the default Traktor F1 mapping thereby adding more functionality to the controller.

Please watch the video for installation procedures and how the effects work on youtube  http://youtu.be/4ovec5YpvqY 

Attached are one TSI file, one template file and two pdf files. 

Any comments or suggestions will be appreciated and please rate it if you like it.

I also am having issues with this......It will load, all lights, but does nothing. I have 4 efx on, I have all 3 Lou's devices. What it wont do is find the F1 in the (In - Out Ports). I have deleted and reloaded everything like 4 times. Please Help!!!! I want to try this......Also, what version of traktor are you using?

Nevermind.......Re-installed F1 drivers.......works great thanks :)

Excellent. Glad you managed to fix it by re- installing the F1 drivers. I am working on a new version and would have it released soon ready for download. I am also working on a track preparation tool that makes its very easy to prepare tracks. I know a few people have done this already but 8 believe there is room for one more.

Ok so I was able to connect everything. Lights are on, numbers for shift pages work. But when I hit a pad nothing happens. No fx. Suggestions?

Sorry you're having a problem. I think your problem must be very unique. It could be your set up. Check the following. - you imported the mapping twice as per the video - you have set the F1 midi mode to MIDI mode and not User mapping - you have set the effects to 4 - check that you have all Lou's 3 devices and that the in port and out ports are set to the F1. - you have enabled the at least one deck for the effects to work; by pressing one of the mute buttons. If you still have a problems then best way to resolve it is over chat. I need to ask you a number of questions and narrow down the problem. You can chat with me on Skype. My user name is Lwamon. I will do my best to help you.

Hey Lou, so for one, the mapping that you have going on for this f1 looks amazing. Pretty excited to try it out, problem is that i can't seem to download the files needed for it. keeps telling me that the application is not working. do you have another suggestion?

Hi Aranda, Sorry your are having trouble downloading the file. That is a technical problem with DJTECTOOLS. I have uploaded the file here on the link; http://www.screencast.com/t/2h4nMZGEI which you can download. Please remember its a compressed file so you will need to uncompress it before you can install the contents. Feel free to Skype me on Lwamon if you have any problems.

He Lou, i Have a Problem.. after installing everything. and switching to MIDI mode.. the load function on SYNC does not work for me.. No P1 - P2 Any tips Advice ?
Patrick Lou almost 11 years ago

Hi there, You are the first to encounter a problem. Could be an installation one on the F1. 1. Try disconnect the F1 completely, then reboot PC/MAC and reconnect again. If not. 2.Try delete the mapping and the template file and start a fresh installation. Please check that you have the F1 connected to the in port and out ports after installation. Please let me know if you manage to sort it out. Kind regards, Lou

Did anyone figure out a solution to this problem? I am having the same exact issue. No Sync, No number 1 or 2 in the display (actually shows 0). I can get a response from the ramp delay and that is it.
