I'm trying to map keyboard buttons 1-9 to trigger effects when pressed. Im not sure on the script....
Is it: 'effect "my_effect" active on' ...????????
Also need the mapper to toggle which deck the effect is applied to...... say the "ALT" key (toggle between the deck the effect is applied to)
Thanks guys!!!!

Like this,
effect 'the effect you want on goes here' active on
And read this thread for the swapping of decks, http://www.virtualdj.com/forums/135723/Hardware_Technical_Support/Advanced_Mapping_Verbs_Swap_Decks.html?page=1
Hope that helps

Ok Huey got the buttons mapped with effects......
Now I am not seeing via that above link the exact script to have my 'ALT' key choose which side of the deck the effect is applied on? Any advice or script I could try?
Thank so much... =D

I used to use CTRL for the right and ALT for the left eg
CTRL + 1 = deck 1 effect "beatgrid" active
ALT + 1 = deck 2 effect "beatgrid" active
you can use key learn to get both buttons, then just type in your script in the action box
Also, you don't want to use "active on" as this only turns the effect on, if you use "active" it toggles on and off
CTRL + 1 = deck 1 effect "beatgrid" active
ALT + 1 = deck 2 effect "beatgrid" active

@synth, i think you made a typo....
CTRL for the right = Deck 2
ALT for the left = Deck 1
however, your mapper script is the opposite way round.
should have been
CTRL for the left = Deck 1
ALT for the right = Deck 2
