RP 8000 for Rekorbox DJ 5

Description and Instructions

Hello, I was looking for a RP8000 mapping for Rekordbox DJ, but couldn't find one, so I made my own. There is still some issue I need to fix, but it can be a start point if you want to make your own. 

It was made with Rekorbox 5.0.1, so I don't know if it work with previous version. Also it's for a 2 deck setup with 2 RP8000. Here is how it's map :

- Cue : from 1 to 7 it's regular "Hot Cue", one hit to set it, and then it should light up. To delete just press the cue bouton and the hotcue you want to delete. 

Special thing here is that I use the 8th cue as a jump to start track, I do that because Rekordbox don't mark the first hotcue automatically (like Traktor) and as I don't use controler or CDJ, it's the best way I find to go back to the begining of a track without having to think of marking the 1st hotcue point (if you got a solution to change that, don't hesitate to let me know).

- Loop : the loop mode here control the "Slicer" mode, so from 1 to 8 it's slicer mode. 
If you push the loop mode a 2nd time, the pad become the control for "Pad FX 2" (by default it's Slip loop from 1 to 4 and Rev Roll from 5 to 8)

Note that the "Pad Fx 2" menu don't appear on screen when you choose it on the RP, it's because I didn't find a way to map the loop button for "Slicer" and "Pad FX 2", but it still work (even if apparently the slip loop doesn't work when its on slicer mode, so you maybe have to press cue then loop - on the RP - to activate this mode, I don't know why, maybe conflict with slip mode)

- Sample : This control the "Pad FX 1", from 1 to 8, it's FX from 1 to 8 and if you press sample+pad1 to 8 it's FX from 9 to 16

- User : I use this part for the fonction I use the most, but you can easily delete them and map your own. On my version it's like that : Pad 1 : Quantize
Pad 2 : Slip mode
Pad 3 : Sync
Pad 4 : Key down
Pad 5 : Key up
Pad 6 : Key reset (or master tempo on/off)
Pad 7 : Relative mode
Pad 8 : Internal mode


So here it is, there is still some little issue I have to fix, it's my first mapping, so don't hesitate to send your feedback if you see something weird or if you got a solution for the problem I explain. Also feel free to use it as a base to your own mapping :)

Hello, yes, you plug them the same way you would do with Serato or Traktor. The A plug in the B and them go to the computer (or maybe the other way, I don't remember the proper order as I sold the turntable some month ago).

ok thanks fr the details, in serato, the sofware recognizes the 2 turntables separatly when you choose the midi channel on it. Unfortunatly it doesn't work on rekordbox, wich recognize only one... i have to buy a new cable :) hace anice day !

Also I forgot to mention, the encoder are map to the loop fonction, so one clic to loop, another clic to unloop, and rotate to choose size

Thanks for this. I'll be testing it out in a few days once my new pair of 8000's arrive.
