AlphaTheta DDJ-GRV6 Official Support

I will give the GRV6 props, it’s a very good looking controller!

My beef with “Club Standard”, it really means the Pioneer layout - and I really dislike Pioneer’s single channel for all FX. I’ve never found it to be performance friendly, the workflow creates a lot of extra busy work for very little gain. I feel like I always have to double-check settings to be sure it’s a. targeting the correct deck b. using the correct FX c. actually ON or OFFe. Ugh. It should not be that complicated. It’s just one extra thing to juggle when you’re constantly mixing between decks.

I prefer FX controls to be neatly separated for each Deck. Either as a separate section near the jog wheels OR I’d love to see FX controls for each Deck lined up right next the EQ/Filter buttons.

Yeah, I do think I understand: Once, in a club saw a controller like mine (Native S5 ← no jogwheels - eek! Still love it for being… different ;o), with the unit being clad in FlipFlop blue / white-ish… almost “glow-in-the-dark”-like… classy indeed.
Thanks mate, for letting me know.
Cheers!:v:

Looks good. But very big. I never use platters. So skip the platters and we have the perfect midiplayer.

I recently acquired this device and have been mapping with Djay.

I have two questions.

  1. Will Algoriddim be releasing mapping and support for the AlphaTheta DDJ-GRV6?
  2. in mapping, I do not know how to assign the BEAT FX jog and how to assign the level indicator. Can you please tell me how to do this?

*I am a non-English speaking user and I use a translator. English may be incorrect.

I assume that GRV6 will also be officially supported in the future, but only Algoriddim itself will be able to tell you if and when this will happen.

Hi @EichiEmu, please use search before creating new topics. I’ve merged yours with this existing one. This hardware is not yet supported, but you can vote to have this supported at the top left of this page. Thanks!

I saw the topic here in a search, but I didn’t think it was a thread for support because of all the remarks about the release and how good or bad the product is.
First of all, sorry for the hassle. And I’d really like an answer from an expert on the second question. I have no official mapping data, so I have to do it myself, but this is my first time mapping and I don’t know how to do it.

Hi @EichiEmu, I don’t have access to this specific hardware so I can’t offer much help with your Beat FX jog question. Also, MIDI mapping the LED VU meters is currently not supported in our MIDI Learn tool.
