@lucianpetrescu84

type this into google: "Map Traktor’s Beat Phase Monitor to your Reloop Digital Jockey 2" and get a detailed explaination how to map the blinking LED's to your load buttons.

Ahoi!

[hardstylers11]

Last song? :D

If you want to change led color, you should open case, and replace LEDs. It's a simple thing. BTW Sanwa buttons are nice. Everthing working perfectly fine.

[BiTc3x3]

nice...

[dehidoTV]

hey dude.

how did you change the led's? i use virtualdj 7 pro for the dj2 ie and i would to change the led's there in blue. can you make a mapping for vdj7 that do this?

[MrBohne94]

@dehidoTV this isn't a software thing you have to change the led's inside tje digital jockey !!!

[looky93]

Do i need to open the housing to change the LED color? Or is this possible only by changing something in the soft- or firmware?

[xfp21]

Hey, your DJ2 looks great! I'm looking into getting arcade buttons as well because we all know how much the original play/cue buttons suck! My question is: how did you wire the arcade buttons to the circuit board? I really appreciate any help that you can give me.

[joncooper1980]

Hi

Do you have a change log that details how this changes campared to the standard mapping?

Interested in knowing what you have changed and what you have kept as standard.

Thanks

Jon

[mastrojani]

@joncooper1980 No, i haven't. Sorry!

[poolcha]

Hi, this looks really cool, its almost like a digital jockey version of Ean Golden's vci-100SE. I have lots of questions, sorry. Did you need to install any new firmware into the controller to be able to use all the effects the way you did or does the mapping you've linked enable you to use it like that. I'm looking around hoping to buy a controller very soon, is this the interface edition which you have modded here? Would you recommend buying the IE or the controller edition. Thanks

[mastrojani]

@poolcha Yes - you must install new device firmware + my mapping - this is very very easy operation.

Interface Edition has touch sensitive Jogs, so you must have this version to using this mapping (when you touch the jog beatmasher turns on) !

[biomassenabbau]

check my LED mod if you like...

[mastrojani]

@biomassenabbau Your LED mod is also great! Like Digital Jockey 1.

[bradparker1983]

Your midi mapping is incredible, good job. Could i ask, where did you get the arcade buttons from? Did you need to modify these to fit into Reloop unit. My cue/pause/play button are f*cked (common problem) so I need to replace them.

[mastrojani]

@bradparker1983 Buttons - Sanwa OBSF-24. I bought this buttons on arcadeshop.de :).

[tranjohn]

@bradparker1983 u can buy the buttons on Ebay like nearly everything else lol

[pellemetallaro]

@bradparker1983 any guide to replace fucked buttons? :(

[horstlocal]

I really like your mod and some features of your mapping (pitch bend and FX on jog wheels) but I'm not able to load your mapping in my TP 1.2.1. What am I doing wrong?

I import your mapping but Traktor shows no assigned Buttons.

[mastrojani]

@horstlocal Please upgrade your Traktor to 1.2.5 Version and very important - change device firmware to 2.7 !

[mastrojani]

Link for custom mapping - look for the description! ;)

[vitus37]

haha pretty cool!

[mastrojani]

@vitus37 Thanks mate :)

[milchbanane]

is it hard to open the case and mod the LED´s ?

[biomassenabbau]

Hey Milchbanane,

It isn't very hard to open the case. There are a lot of screws on your way. The link will lead you to a very good and detailed description (in german) how to open the controller. Playing with the LEDs might be tricky. I would not do it without experience and a stereo microscope ;-)

Cheers

[mastrojani]

@biomassenabbau Maybe i will record video "how to open your Digital Jockey 2".

[tranjohn]

@mastrojani the button aren't sitting plush are they? Didn't u customize the hole? Or did u just place them on top of the original hole?

[mastrojani]

@tranjohn I only use file tool and sandpaper :). But this buttons fit perfectly!

[tranjohn]

@mastrojani Cool great job...did it take long? Yeah the reloop is pretty easy to put the arcade buttons cause the originals buttons are roughly the same shape and size! I just got the VMS4 should've arrived by now and was thinking about putting the arcade buttons on too. Do u think it's possible to do with the VMS4?

[mastrojani]

@tranjohn Thanks mate.

VMS4 - really? I don't know...

[tranjohn]

@mastrojani Can't u fit the buttons so they are sitting more plush? Can't u push the buttons down futher cause it looks like it's sticking out

[mastrojani]

@tranjohn This is impossible - not enough space. The Arcade buttons has ~30mm and standard buttons has ~17mm ; /.

[mastrojani]

@milchbanane No, this is very easy operation!

[milchbanane]

@mastrojani ok cool i have the interface editon and multi colour buttons are so much cooler haha :-). you controle your Fx with the spin wheels-- have you map this by your owne ? (sry i´m german so my english is bad)

[mastrojani]

@milchbanane You find this mapping on reloop dj forums! :)

[biomassenabbau]

The blue is a little to bright and I do not understand why the left pitch bend has two blue LEDs and right sight only one? The buttons are a bit flying on top of the reloop, but there is not enough space. I like the green LEDs and work that you spent. Go on.

[mastrojani]

@biomassenabbau

I bought 6 blue leds, but a one was broken... Sh.t happens xD

That's right, buttons bit flying, but we have only 19mm space on controller...

Cheers!

[spylon]

Good job man!
