How do I get the mapping for my MK4? Does it come with the software or you have to download it.

[GameGod0]

@techdecklover253 Mixxx 1.9.0 comes bundled with a mapping for the MK4. There's a beta of 1.9.0 available for download now on mixxx.org, and the final release should be coming soon.

@GameGod0 I found it but how do I mod it

[GameGod0]

@techdecklover253 Search your computer for a file called "Hercules DJ Console Mk4.midi.xml", and edit that with a text editor like wordpad. If you're comfortable editing javascript, you can make your controller do even more by editing "Hercules-DJ-Console-Mk4-scrip­ts.js"... Google "Mixxx MIDI scripting" to find out more!

@GameGod0 I have another problem, I heard that the midi mapping came with mixxx 1.8.2 but I looked in the presets and its not there!

[GameGod0]

@techdecklover253 It's in 1.9.0 only, not version 1.8.2, sorry!

The video isn't about his mixing, it's about the software. Damn impressive, and open source too!

[zyguli]

You throw out his garbage?

[Guasta87]

@GameGod0 It's also in 1.9.1...but, can you use mk4 with timecoded vinyl too?

[MrJeremy2023]

You can use 2 turntables and one soundcard for Mixxx right???

i know that its possible to use the software with cd control also, but can u use the cd player control while it is connected to a mixer? and if its possible, how?
