Traktor 4 and NI F1 pattern player and stems mapping

Hello,

I've just updated to traktor 4, and after extensive browsing of manuals and forums, I want to ask if there is a mapping available which would allow to control stems on 2 decks and pattern player.

I know it is possible to map this manually, but even though I've done my share of custom mappings in the past, I'm a bit afraid to go down this rabbit hole now, so I was wondering if there is some mapping already done or I really need to dive into heavily customizing it.

(I use 2 decks controlled by x1 mk2, 3rd output is pattern player controlled by F1)

Thank you

    I recommend to get a Twister and this mapping from DJ-TechTools.

    The F1 doesn't have enough controls for a comfortable mapping. You could also use a A&H K2, but i don't know if there is a mapping for both stems and pattern player. Or you could get a second F1 for a second stem deck, although this leaves out the pattern player.

    Someone else got a better solution?

    just a note I have another X1 which I do not use currently, and an ancient bcf2000, but i really would prefer not to increase footprint of my setup.

    I’ve configured a mapping to simultaneously control the stems on 4 decks (A/B/C/D), one per line. I use the filters to isolate the drums and bass, the faders to adjust the other elements and vocals, while the buttons handle cuts and effects via the Shift button. I also integrated the deck focus function using the 4 stop buttons, allowing me to control the loop movements with the F1 encoder (my X1 encoders are dedicated to key adjustment). The Size button is used to set the loop movement length: 32, 16, 8, 4, 2, or 1 bar, with visual feedback on the screen above the button. I’ve added the ability to set the master deck by combining the deck focus and the Sync (Master) button, and I’m planning to add Pattern Player management soon. If anyone is interested, feel free to let me know!

    I recently made a full mapping for F1 - https://traktormaps.com/mappings/kontrol-f1-traktor-pro-4

    4 Decks and 4 Pattern Players.
