This is very helpful of you! I’ve spoken to the team, and we’re happy to support this community project, as a sort of wiki-esque guide. I’ll try to answer your queries in the notes, and fill in any gaps.
I made a big update to the list.
I actually found out only right now, that dJay for iOS has TWO seperate list of mappable MIDI actions. One for click-buttons and another one for faders/knobs and rotaries.
This feels a lot like testing, guessing and reverse engeneering, but its great fun. I hope the list is usefull for otheres.
@algoridm: There are a lot of open questions in the Sheet. We’d be glad about answers.
There are a lot of quite usefull but undocument features in dJay. It would be worth documenting them. Here is one example (many more in the sheet):
Set loop OUT in dJay for iOS
When paused: Set the end of the loop to exactly where the playhead is.
When playing: Set the end of the loop (quantized).
When you create a loop while playing dJay very cleverly quanzizes the end of your loop. When you set a very short loop you can create a 1/2, 1 or 2 beat loop. When you click OUT after the third beat, dJay will automatically create a 4 beta (=1 bar) loop. Which is most likely what you want.
For DJay Pro AI on Mac, can you please add the ability to midi map buttons to select the FX Assignment for Deck, Drums, Harmonic and Vocals? Thank you.
I am trying to midi map the Rane One, it is a slow learning curve. (dj dad joke in there)
anybody already do it and have a midi file? I WILL PAY!
having a hard time with the spinning platters, I figure since the rane 12 is now compatible then the one should be able to do it, any idea where I can see a rane 12 file so I can try to apply it to my rane 1?
i’m using a DDJ-SP1 on my cdj + mixer setup, i would like to “toggle” all the FX knobs in to “Neural mix knobs”… but unlike traktor i cant assign a button to act like a modifier and i have to hold shift in order to use the “Neural mix layer” on the FX knobs… not so friendly…
Hi! I have the need for various midi mappings that I’m not finding as options in DJ pro AI for Mac… However, when I look at this google sheet, the things Im looking for are listed.
Im confused how I get to see all the mappings listed in this google sheet… or maybe they’re just not implemented in the mac version of the software?
Specifically I need:
Button mapping for effects 1-3 on/off for each deck
Button for turning neural layers on/off (i.e. drums, bass, harmonic, vocals)
Buttons for turning loop on/off
Buttons for increasing/decreasing loop length
Button for 8 Instant FX slots per deck
So I’ve dug deeper, and think I’ve found the issue…
I’m mapping velocity sensitive buttons, and looking for on/off mappings… and when I send midi to dJay, it’s seeing the mapping is shown with a “fader” icon and giving limited mapping options.
The solution seems to be if I go to that mapping → Advanced → and change Control Type to button, which gives MANY more options I was looking for.
I think this solves my issue… and will check and make sure every mapping I listed earlier is in this other menu. If not, I’ll report back.
