Pattern Player Misses the Mark

@ springreverb

TRAKTOR could solve this by opening the Slot Pitch mapping (for Remix Deck). It is such a shame that we cannot control this feature in 2023 with a MIDI controller and it was locked ever since the 2.5 when it was introduced with F1.

F1 implementation for Slot Pitch control is a work around really. One need to press SHIFT + TYPE and then scroll the browser clicky type of encoder. Not ideal like for example remapping this on the Slot Filter control on F1 or any other controller with detented absolute message knob.

S8 and D2 implementation is a little better since it uses a smooth encoders but you also need to navigate pages to get there. It is also not possible to have 4 dedicated Pitch knobs in a single layout with default mapping nor the FX Knobs could be remapped.

The Pattern Player mises the mark on it's implementation. It should live as a Channel Effect with the ability to control it with an EQ knobs and a Filter so S2 MK2 and S3 users could try it out. Even if NI is going to add 4 more FX Units in there, there will be 32 FX Unit assignments per Deck that you need to display somehow in UI, we'll see what happens after native M1 support is here.

So currently I an paying $5 a month for a Pitch Parameter in an FX Unit.
