I’m using a DDJ-FLX6-GT and I really like the way the Sound Color FX (CFX) work in Rekordbox. I can use the filter knob to control different Sound Color FX (not just filter), such as the ones shown in the screenshot I attached.
Now I’m trying to use the same controller with djay Pro, but in djay Pro the filter knob only works as a standard filter.
What I would like to do is:
Use the FLX6-GT filter knob in djay Pro to control other effects (similar to Rekordbox Sound Color FX), not just the regular filter.
Is this possible through MIDI mapping or advanced configuration in djay Pro?
Can the filter knob be reassigned to control different FX parameters like echo, noise, crush, etc., similar to how CFX works in Rekordbox?
If anyone has experience mapping FLX6-GT in djay Pro to behave more like Rekordbox’s Sound Color FX, I’d really appreciate the guidance.
Hi @n421m, currently this is not really possible in djay. The Filter knob in djay does not have an On/Off toggle - it’s always On except when in the center position. You could potentially add FX on top of the Filter, but not instead of the Filter.
For example, you could duplicate the existing Filter knob mapping to also control FX1 Parameter, then map one of the Sound Color FX buttons to turn FX1 ON another button to turn FX2 ON and a third button to turn FX3 ON. This would result in the Filter and FX1 being applied at the same time when you press the Sound Color FX button.
Hi @n421m, I recommend that you make a new Suggestion topic for adding a Filter On/Off Toggle and MIDI command. Then other users can upvote it and I can share this with our dev team for consideration.
