Hi guys. I'm working with a Remote 25SL and Traktor Pro.
I want to use the 8 rotary knobs at the top of the Remote to control my EQ. I am going to assign two knobs per deck to control the 4 bands (one knob for Low and Mid-Low and one knob for Mid-HIgh and High Under preset called EQ Smart). This I have figured out and it works. I then have two Presets (EQ Low Dumb and EQ High Dumb) where, as shift keys, each knob controls either Low and Mid-Low or Mid-High and High individually. This works as well.
Now, right now while in the Smart preset I have the one rotary sending out one message, controlling two knobs in Traktor at different sensitivities so the MId-Low moves slower than the Low. I tried to have it send out two different messages (CC 17 and 18, for example) with a pp/2 message so that the MId-Low would move half as slow. This did not work. In Traktor it read the messages all over the place for CC18, whereas 17 worked fine.
So, this is what I want to do and don't know how.
I want to have the Mid-Low stop when the Low is at a certain point while on EQ Smart preset and not start again until the Low reaches that point going back up. To do this I need to reconcile how to get Traktor to recognize the second message (CC18) coming from the one knob as some sort of controller that works. How can I do this with rules? As an alternative, I was thinking about having the Low Kill go off once the Low reached a certain frequency. I'm sure this would be possible while not using endless rotaries (and a lot easier) but this is how I'd like to get it set, if it's at all possible.
So yeah, I hope this makes some sort of sense. Any help would be really, really appreciated.
Thanks
Jared
(As an edit, now that I've typed this out, should the rule for the second command be pp==pp/2 or pp==x/2? Something to make CC18 respond half as fast as CC17? This I can do in Traktor, but I may want to use something like this in the future anyway, so it doesn't hurt to learn)
