Here you go
Hello @RP732 ,
Thanks for posting about this here in the Community.
Did the articles @Djdash share help you with mapping your Numark device?
If you’re still in the process, can you please confirm if you’re having issues with mapping specific buttons or, rather, the process as a whole?
Thanks, I’ll be on the lookout for your reply!
Hello! I was under the impression that the controller would work perfectly
when plugged into my computer and running the software. The basics work but
when it comes to some of the functionality on the controller like filter
knobs, EQ , Quick launch effects. I didnt know if there was a download
needed to have the controller running with all functionality. When I plug
it into serato, the controller and all the functions run smoothly.
Please advise, thanks!
Hi there. For some strange reason your post is replicated multiple times. Ok each software has its own way of mapping a controller. Most of the functions should work out the box however, in some cases you have to map them out. I have not used Djay on windows but I will assume it’s the same. Do you have the pro subscription?
Hello! Sorry about that not sure what’s causing the multiple responses. I am using the DJay AI pro on my MacBook Pro. It seems I will have to map out most of the features myself but even when going to map each one, not all the features are available on the pro software I have. I was hoping it would all be automatic.
Hello @RP732 ,
Thanks for the info you have shared so far regarding your experience. It’s been useful!
Would you mind also sharing which exact features/functionalities/buttons are not available on your djay Pro AI app when you’re trying to map your controller according to the steps @Djdash shared here?
The Numark Mixtrack Platinum FX is part of our list of natively supported controllers for Mac (click here for the full list), but I could pass your feedback regarding the missing features to our Dev Team for further consideration.
Wishing you a nice day in the meantime!

Thanks for the follow up! I attached a photo of the buttons that don’t seem to be working unfortunately - also when I plug in the controller the jog wheel bpm numbers sometimes just keep running and increasing vs staying at the number that the bpm that the song should be. I appreciate you looking into this and or any further suggestions. Let me know if you need any other info from me , thanks all!

I also tried to map each one myself per the suggestions but when I press each button I didn’t see an option to map it too, only the basic buttons on most controllers
Hi guyz
I have a similar issue the screenshot shared above for fx paddles do not work. Please can you advise on the manual mapping for each of those controls under the fx section
Please advise on the manual mapping for each of the control in this screenshot. That’s the only problem I have at the moment
Paddles are working fine for me but it seems that FX buttons are not remappable…
Thanks for your feedback… can you share the mapping for the paddles to work.
It works natively for me (ipad version).
Any workaround that you are currently using for the fx ?
no… nothing… straight out of the box…
I assume that you tried to move the dry/wet knob ?
Sometimes it can remain at dry position in software at start up.
Yes that’s correct I tried to move it
Hi,
I am using an iPad Pro with djay pro ai and my controller is Numark mixstream platinum fx, most of the controls are mapped well with the app however the FX section of the controller is not mapped.
I tried to go to midi settings but unfortunately I do not know which setting should I map it with. For example the FX paddle switch button… then wet / dry knob and beats knob, tap button so basically the entire FX section mapping can you please provide it.
Screenshot below for the all the mapping I need.

@jude_rodrigues unfortunately, this FX hardware layout is not ideal for how Djay is setup. Also I don’t have this controller, so I’m going strictly off this picture.
Djay uses separate FX units for each deck and this appears to be a master FX layout. So to make things work properly you’ll have to duplicate the midi mapping controls for both FX units in DJay. Also I’ll warn you that we won’t be using the FX paddles in this mapping. This isn’t going to be a super straight forward process. I’ll guide you through setting up the wet/dry in detail and hopefully if you can get that working you’ll be able to follow the same process for the Beats knob.
Starting with the top left wet/dry knob, open the midi editor, turn the knob and assign:
Target → Deck 1
Action → FX 1 Wet/Dry
Notice in the left column the highlighted control that this is assigned to. Using the touch screen, press down and slide this control to the left to reveal Duplicate | Delete. Select Duplicate. Now right below the highlighted control you will find your new duplicate. Select this control and assign it like this:
Target → Deck 1
Action → FX 2 Wet/Dry
Now repeat the duplicate process and map this one to Deck 1, FX 3 Wet/Dry.
Then repeat these same 3 for Deck 2 and save and close your mapping. Test out the wet/dry knob to make sure that it’s controlling all 6 wet/dry knobs in Djay.
If you make it this far the rest should get a little easier.
Map the Beats encoder in the same way above, but to FX 1 Parameter, FX 2 Parameter and FX 3 Parameter for both Deck 1 and Deck 2. Now test this to confirm that the encoder controls all 6 FX parameters in Djay.
Now you’re going to map the 6 red FX buttons to turn the individual FX units on independently. I recommend you do the following mapping assignments using the duplicate procedure above.
I also recommend that you turn MIDI Out on for each of the FX enable buttons so you know which ones are on by looking at the hardware.
HPF → Deck 1, FX 1 Enable
LPF → Deck 1, FX 2 Enable
FLANGER → Deck 1, FX 3 Enable
ECHO → Deck 2, FX 1 Enable
REVERB → Deck 2, FX 2 Enable
PHASER → Deck 2, FX 3 Enable
You will have to use the touch screen to chose which FX you want to assign to each of the units and this obviously won’t match what the buttons on your controller say.
So you will use the top 3 red FX buttons to turn on/off each of the 3 Deck 1 FX units. The bottom 3 buttons will do the same for Deck 2. The two knobs will adjust the wet/dry and level for all 6 units together. If desired, you can even have all 6 FX on at the same time. It’s not perfect, but should give reasonable hardware control over most of the FX controls.

Can someone with a Mac, upload or share the default apple midi mapping for the platinum fx for Djay Pro to the windows forum or here. I can’t find it anywhere and there is no support for windows yet. Thanks!
