Messages from TRAKTOR

I would have purchased the s4mk3 if it worked with the the iPad app, but sadly they removed removed this feature from the mk3 model. I posted about this in the old forum and it was deleted by admins. I can understand lower end hardware having limitations, but the flagship hardware should be able to work with all versions of traktor software including the iPad app (even if limited to 2 channels like the S3 and needing to be plugged in for adequate power).

I hope the NI team can address this instead of censoring it from this new forum. @MichaelK_NI @Matt_NI

Since the beginning Traktor's roots were an open and flexible ecosystem. I understand the decision to remove 3rd party hardware support, but the open ecosystem should have remained flexible within traktor's own unique hardware setups. This was one of the main features that made Traktor special and different from the other dj software available. From what I've read online, remapping and MIDI has also become limited on new traktor controllers.

I just hope you guys take a look at Joe Easton work with his screen mod for s4 mk3. Its amazing that a dude like him made so much more helpful information on that little screen. Just take it all in and give him credit for his work. This should be basic stuff imo.

Not so sure about that, as this was posted May 20, 2019.. Have been some updates since then and nothing have happened. So I just wish they give us this now in the next update.🤞

Hi. I know there are others mappings/mods for kontrol s4 mk3 but I really would like to see an NI update for s4 so we can change the effects in global section fx units with the controller. That's why I use a controller, not to use the mouse... I don't want to install other mods. For me is ok how it is, except what I said above!

Thanks, best regards!

Aaaa... oh ! 

Anyway... Mapping a midi controller in traktor was not a problem for me, but the s4 mk3 was not showing in the devices list for mapping. Now that I loaded a simpre mapping from djtt it apears. Like magic ! I don't know, maybe it was there all the time... (silly me, if that is the case 🤪 ) The mapping I loaded modiffy the "only browser" function to deseapear when a track is loaded and in that mapping I made the mapping for the effects to be selected via the fx knobs ! 😁 😉

All good now ! Maybe I'll also add more functions if I feel the urge...

BTW... I saw that the "loop"and "move" encoders transmit touch sensitive midi message ! I have some ideas... 😁

What are the possibilities of being able to add vst in the master out? like compressors, corossover, aural exciters. Useful tools for mobile djs.

They have said soon for the drum machine add on. I presume that would mean Traktor Pro 4 as well. What ever soon means is anyones guess. They seem to post a bit then go all quiet. Seems to be their way of communicating. Hopefully not too long.

When? Waiting
