Akai Midimix Mapping Layout
Rows 1 – 3: 8 Rotary Encoders Each (Total of 24)
Rows 4 – 5: 8 Push Buttons Each (Total of 16)
Row 6: 8 Faders and 1 Master Fader
I’ll Number These as Row – Encoder/Button/Fader Number
Example 1-1, 1-2, 1-3,1-4…… From Left to Right
2-1, 2-2, 2-3,2-4……
You get the idea.
There are 4 buttons on the right side above the master fader
Button 1 Send All = Not Used (Careful, It will send the current Midimix settings to Traktor)
Button 2 Bank Left = Deck Select Button
Button 3 Bank Right = Modifier M2
Button 4 Solo = Modifier M1
