Twitch MIDI map for djay
Description and Instructions
There are very few maps for djay out there, so I thought I'd share mine.
It's my first attempt at mapping my Twitch to djay. I've covered off pretty much everything I need for when I play. But it's also not complete - haven't quite worked out the best setup for FX for example.
The Twitches 8 pads and 4 performance modes are great, they give you so much flexibility.
I have them mapped like this:
HOT CUES
Pad 1 to 4 set the cue points. Pad 5 to 8 have effects mapped to them.
SLICER
Pad 1 to 4 jump to cue point and lay.Pad 5 to 8 have same effects as above.
AUTO LOOP
Pad 1 to 8 all have varying length auto loops mapped to them
LOOP ROLL
Pad 1 to 4 have 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, and 1 beat, bounce loops mapped to them.
Pad 5 and 6 decrease and increase skip duration, and 7 and 8 skip backwards and forwards.
I've got FX mapped to the Master FX controls - but not really well I don't think - I'm still working out the optimum setting. Other than that, there are bits and pieces mapped to other buttons that you can read from the configuration screen in djay. I'd love to get ideas on how anyone else has mapped theirs differently, or suggestions which may make mine better.
And if you're a complete genius, and know how to map the LED's on the Touchstrip so they move with the music like they do in Itch, I'd be mighty impressed and grateful!
Also, I'd love to know how to map the VU meters to get them working on the Twitch. It's strange that they show no signal.
Cheers.
