Hi guys, I am configuring a new X1 mk3 with Traktor Pro 4.2.0. I have noticed that when launching Traktor, X1 always ask for "Device Setup" phase (even if I have already done that). Any idea how to fix this issue?

    There is a piece of code in one of the qml files that automatically opens the setup when the device is connected and the mapping is loaded. You can change that, but then you have no way of entering setup without changing even more code.

    I've done my best to add some more functionality to the X1 via qml code. Check out the link in my sig if you are curious.

    Hi, I see it seems to be the normal behaviour. I thought I was doing something wrong 😅

    I am just testing your mod X1MK3_TP4.1.1_PerformanceMod_10, awesome work thank you! To be honest I still need to understand all the different features listed.

    I was wondering if is it possible to merge X1MK3_TP4.1.1_PerformanceMod_10 with this one https://community.native-instruments.com/discussion/17893/x1-mk3-not-possible-to-control-mixer-fx
    where high knob controls both high and mids (instead of using shift for mids). Is that doable?

    A question regarding displays: they don't update UI when I am not in the Traktor window (MacOS). Is that normal?

    You can overmap. Go to controller manager and select the x1mk3 mapping in the device dropdown. Then Add in… Mixer→Equalizers→Mid Eq both for left top knob and right top knob. Same with the kill button.

    Read the instructions of my mod (last main entries) for a way to have condition modifiers that register which overlay you are on and which deck combo you are currently using for more mapping help.

    Do you mean the instructions gave here? https://community.native-instruments.com/discussion/17167/x1mk3-qml-coding-projects-browsermode-anyone/p1

    I coudln't find any info about condition modifiers or how to use them, am I looking in the right place?

    Yes. The info is right above the download link of V10.

    This is what it says:

    Quote:

    Custom Overmapping Support for all three overlays:

    • Note: This feature only works when activated (see above).
    • Switching Overlays (FX Overlay 1, FX Overlay 2, Mixer/STEM Overlay) will now also switch the value of Remix Deck A or Remix Deck B Sample Page Selector.
    • As long as Decks A & B are not actually Remix Decks, this has no consequences whatsover for the deck. You can use the value of the page as a modifier condition (sample page selector) to override the FX controls separately for each X1 overlay using overmapping assignments.

    Modifier Condition 'Sample Page Selector' details:

    • Page 1 - FX overlay 1
    • Page 2 - FX overlay 2
    • Page 3 - Mixer overlay
    • Remix Deck A - Deck combinations A+B, A+C or C+A (Deck A must be involved)
    • Remix Deck B - Deck combinations C+D or B+D (Deck D must be involved)

    End Quote

    Note: This option (when active) makes it so that 'Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck A/B) - Page 1/2/3' can be used as a Modifier Condition with overmapping Assignments as an indicator of which overlay is in use and which deck combination is in use.

    Thank you, I have finally figured out how to correctly activate the mods

    Great.

    Was the description i provided helpful? Was it difficult? I would like to improve it to make it more accessible.

    I lacked knowledge about Traktor in general (I am studying it in these days), so many things were not clear to me for this reason.
    I have still to understand how can I use the modifiers. I have activated this:

    Your note says:
    "Note: This option (when active) makes it so that 'Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck A/B) - Page 1/2/3' can be used as a Modifier Condition with overmapping Assignments as an indicator of which overlay is in use and which deck combination is in use."

    So in Controller Manager I see that I can specify a modifier

    I don't understand what happnes if I select Remix Deck A/B/C/D as modifier, do they relate to the current mode on the X1 (mixer / FX1-2 / FX3-4)?

    They do. You are on the right path.

    If the custom toggle is active, this is what happens:

    If your deck config is AB, AC or CA:

    • FX overlay 1: Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck A)→Value = Page 1
    • FX overlay 2: Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck A)→Value = Page 2
    • Mixer overlay: Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck A)→Value = Page 3
    • Also, for all three cases: Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck B)→Value = Page 4 (just so it is not Page 1,2 or 3)

    If your deck config is BD or CD:

    • FX overlay 1: Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck B)→Value = Page 1
    • FX overlay 2: Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck B)→Value = Page 2
    • Mixer overlay: Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck B)→Value = Page 3
    • Also, for all three cases: Sample Page Selector (Remix Deck A)→Value = Page 4 (just so it is not Page 1,2 or 3)
