Hello, I am building a midibox64 to control Traktor. This software allows you to control 4 “decks” simultaneously. I am in the design stage and ordering parts here and there, so I still don’t have a functioning system yet. One thing that I want to accomplish is to have only controls for 2 decks at a time, but with the option to control deck 3 and 4 too. In other words, I want to control 2 of the 4 at a time.
The midi configuration in traktor allows me to specify a midi channel for each control. The midibox will have 2 sections, deck 1 and deck 2, side-by-side. I want to place buttons to be able to assign that section to any of the decks. So deck 1 will have buttons that allow me to control deck A and C and deck 2 will have buttons to control B and D. Are you with me?
I’m thinking that when this “assign” button is pressed, it has to switch the controllers for that specific section to another midi channel.
I want to program the configurations in Traktor as follows:
Controls for Deck A are on MIDI Ch 1
Controls for Deck B are on MIDI Ch 2
Controls for Deck C are on MIDI Ch 3
Controls for Deck D are on MIDI Ch 4
I’m guessing that there’s code somewhere to accomplish this, but I want to the MIDI Channel selection applied to certain pots/faders but not all. I have been looking for a week and can’t find anything even remotely close to a switch used to change the midi channel.
Please help, my eyes are bloodshot from all the research. :o
