When a deck is paused, the jogwheel allows you to browse through a track. If you want to browse faster, hold shift while using the jogwheel.

When a deck is playing, using the jogwheel allows you to temporarily change the tempo of the playing track. Again, holding shift exaggerates this effect.

The tempo slider allows changing the tempo of each deck. This normally changes the pitch of a track, but you can make the pitch stay constant by pressing the “key lock / tempo range” button.Additionally, with shift, the “key lock / tempo range” will fade the tempo slowly to 0. The fading speed can be customized with the speedRateToNormalTime mapping option.

Vinyl mode makes the jogwheels emulate the way turntables work. Vinyl mode can be toggled by pressing the “vinyl / slip” button. Touching the outer plastic ring of the jogwheel will temporarily change the tempo like when vinyl mode is off. Touching the metal disc simulates touching the vinyl record, so just putting your hand on it will stop the “vinyl”. You can scratch in a similar way as with turntables in vinyl mode.

Description

MIXXX, on the other hand, (free software!) allows you to direct the sound anywhere you want, bypassing the DDJ-SB3, while still keeping control over the trim, EQ, filtering, and playback control from the DDJ. Hello all, first thank you for your work. I'm quite a noob. Trying to make my DD 400 work with linux mint 19.2 cinnamon and Mixxx 2.2. I'm putting the.xml and.js files in the controllers folder but get this issue. Pioneer DDJ-SR MIDI Mapping for Mixxx.

  2. Master the basics. Learning to DJ has never been easier than with the DDJ-400 2-channel DJ controller for rekordbox dj. Packed with features to help you comfortably develop your skills, this controller’s layout mirrors that of our flagship NXS2 set-up, with shared elements like dedicated cue buttons, Beat FX, CDJ-style looping controls and more. As a result, our advanced DJ gear will feel.
  3. Feb 01, 2020  I'm new into the mixxx-community, so I'm also a little bit overwhelmed with these github, IT-language. I've got a Pioneer DDJ 400 and, some months before I downloaded mixxx, but in my controller-settings, there's the DDJ 400 not listed. Do I have to download mixxx again? I would be very glad about some help, thanks!

This is my attempt at mapping the Pioneer DDJ-SR for Mixxx.

Ddj 400 mixing

This was originally written for Mixxx v1.11.0, but I'm in the process of updating it to Mixxx 2.0 as of January 2017. This is very much a hobby project though, so updates may be intermittent.

How do I use it?

If you just want to get your controller working with with Mixxx without bothering about the details much, then do the following:

  1. Download the following two files:
  2. Copy these to the [Mixxx Directory]/controllers folder. This will probably be one of the following locations:
    • Windows: C:Program FilesMixxxcontrollers
    • Linux: /usr/share/mixxx/controllers or /usr/local/share/mixxx/controllers
    • OS X: /Applications/Mixxx.app/Contents/Resources/controllers/
  3. Make sure your Pioneer DDJ-SR is plugged in, turned on, and set up to use DJ software other than Serato (see your user manual, or the Controller Setup section below)
  4. Open (or restart) Mixxx, and enjoy using your (semi-functional) controller

Controller Setup (important!)

By default, your Pioneer DDJ-SR will be in 'Serato-mode'. This means that some functionality quite simply won't work in Mix until you turn it off (for example, keylock for the pitch controls). To change this, do the following.

  1. Turn off the Pioneer DDJ-SR
  2. Hold down Shift + Play on the left deck, and turn the power on.
  3. Turn the left deck's keylock on.
  4. Restart the controller.

To use the controller with Serato again, repeat this process and turn the keylock back off again.

What's implemented?

  • General
    • Cross-fader
    • VU Meter LEDs
  • Deck Controls
    • Volume
    • Play / pause

    • Performance Pads
      • Hot Cues
      • Rolls
      • Sampler (without LEDs however)
  • Jog Wheels
    • Scratching
    • Pitch Bending

What's missing?

  • Some button LEDs

    • Sampler LEDs (but sampler itself works)
  • Effects
  • Slip
  • High resolution knobs

I'm a developer. How do I build this?

In order to make things a bit easier to understand and modularised, I've written a basic build process for this mapping. This allows me to do things like define all the midi-mappings in JavaScript, and then let Node build up the final XML file that Mixxx understands. In order to do this, you'll need to do the following:

  1. Install NodeJS if you haven't already
  2. Get all of the node dependencies for this project:
    1. Open a console, command prompt or powershell.
    2. Navigate go to the project folder.
    3. Enter npm install
  3. Build the project
    1. Open a console, command prompt or powershell.
    2. Navigate go to the project folder.
    3. Enter npm run build

The final results of this will be placed in your bin directory. They will also be copied to your process.env.LOCALAPPDATA + '/Mixxx/controllers' folder, so Mixxx should detect them immidiately as well.

You can also optionally run npm run watch, which will rebuild the project any time you edit a JavaScript file in the source folder.

Development Tips

Ddj 400 Mixxx
  1. Run Mixxx from a terminal with the --controllerDebug --developer arguments. This gives you all debug output there from your controller, enables the Developer menu, and also provides you with additional development information in control tooltips.
  2. Mixxx does not recognise console.log(..), but you can use engine.log(..) instead.
  3. You do not necessarily have to restart Mixxx for it to detect changes, but it sometimes helps ;-)
