Legacy Kontrol for Traktor X1mk2
By: DJ Matthew Star


The Legacy Kontrol Mapping for the Traktor Kontrol X1 mk2 incorporates several of my favourite mapping concepts and performance techniques inspired by the DJ Tech Tools website as well as community members: Beaubryte & Stewe.
 Features Include:
-Ritchie Hawtin’s Loop Move Macros as seen in Ean Golden’s article: Looping Techniques For DJs: Loop Move Macros
-Custom FX Presets including: Turntable “Rewind” &  Echo Freeze
-Full Tempo Control
-On the fly Beat Gridding
-Toggle between “Legacy Kontrol” & “Default” mapping with the push of a button
INSTRUCTIONS
Once downloaded & unzipped you should see 2 .TSI files: Controller Mapping and FX Settings. If you wish to upload the mapping without removing your existing mappings then use the “add” button from the “controller manager” section in preferences and select the “controller mapping” .TSI, then use the “big import button” to load the “FX Settings” .TSI. You can also load the mapping and the FX together by using the “big import button” and selecting the “Controller Mapping” .TSI
After loading .TSI file X1 will function normally to engage “Legacy” Mode hold Shift and press the centre encoder Hot Cues 1-4 will turn orange indicating that Legacy Kontrol is engaged, to return to the “Default” mapping simply repeat the process (hold shift and push the centre encoder)
