Topic: NS6 and the FX mapping

Dieses Thema ist veraltet und kann veraltete oder falsche Informationen enthalten.

Hi guys been practicing with a NS6 and VDJ 7.0.5.

The NS6 FX select button does not allow you to select any fx on deck A

Now The FX on deck B will allow you to select but only a few FX beginning with letters "B", so things like flanger are not displayed to be able to be used. These effects are in the FX folder and visible if you use mouse to select. Just unable to do so with the FX selector. Is it worth us trying the actual mapper download, rather the one built into 7.0.5 or is this the same mapper regardless......

Any advice on this matter.

I think vdj for some reason has a limit on how many effects it will scroll through, you can overcome this with some mapping... you will however have to name all the effects in the mapping, just follow this then delete the spaces between the lines.

param_greater 50% ? cylce 'effects' 5 &
var 'effects' 1 ? effect "effect_name" select :
var 'effects' 2 ? effect "effect_name" select :
var 'effects' 3 ? effect "effect_name" select :
var 'effects' 4 ? effect "effect_name" select :
var 'effects' 0 ? effect "effect_name" select : nothing :
cylce 'effects' -5 &
var 'effects' 1 ? effect "effect_name" select :
var 'effects' 2 ? effect "effect_name" select :
var 'effects' 3 ? effect "effect_name" select :
var 'effects' 4 ? effect "effect_name" select :
var 'effects' 0 ? effect "effect_name" select

add as many slots as necassary and use the actual effect name but you have to change the "cycle 'effects' 5" number as well

another cool thing to do is make it so if you turn one way you only choose loop based effects, if you turn the other way you choose audio effects like this

param_greater 50% ? cylce 'effects_right' 5 &
var 'effects_right' 1 ? effect "loop_effect_name" select :
var 'effects_right' 2 ? effect "loop_effect_name" select :
var 'effects_right' 3 ? effect "loop_effect_name" select :
var 'effects_right' 4 ? effect "loop_effect_name" select :
var 'effects_right' 0 ? effect "loop_effect_name" select : nothing :
cylce 'effects_left' 5 &
var 'effects_left' 1 ? effect "audio_effect_name" select :
var 'effects_left' 2 ? effect "audio_effect_name" select :
var 'effects_left' 3 ? effect "audio_effect_name" select :
var 'effects_left' 4 ? effect "audio_effect_name" select :
var 'effects_left' 0 ? effect "audio_effect_name" select

you should register your software so you can get Duen Duen's new effects from the plugin area, they are amazing.

wow thank you for the help....It looks complicated I have never used midi mapping as such only pre mapped.....My m8 is in the same boat....So if we copied and pasted the info you just typed, but replaced "effect" with a name so example "flanger" or "beat grid" this would be correct.

Do we keep all other text the same sorry to sound so lame.

I only just bought me numark NS6 it was secondhand......My firend has a new one. It came with serato itch so on my machine thats whats loading up.

I was trying to buy a VDJ LE version then pay for the upgrade to pro. its cheaper.............Cant really afford the $300 just yet for another few months....So for now I have been messing around on his for practice until I can sort my own version out....

no worries, yeah use that template, but you can add as many effects as you need, just add to the code, then when you are done delete the spaces so it looks like this, and paste it in the mapper for the encoder...

param_greater 50% ? cylce 'effects' 5 & var 'effects' 1 ? effect "beatgrid" select : var 'effects' 2 ? effect "flanger" select : var 'effects' 3 ? effect "delay" select : var 'effects' 4 ? effect "flippindouble" select : var 'effects' 0 ? effect "echo" select : nothing : cylce 'effects' -5 & var 'effects' 1 ? effect "beatgrid" select : var 'effects' 2 ? effect "flanger" select : var 'effects' 3 ? effect "delay" select : var 'effects' 4 ? effect "flippindouble" select : var 'effects' 0 ? effect "echo" select

Copying and pasting will this over write any existing text in the mapping or do I have to find that section and delete it first....then paste it in...

Once again thank ever so much for the help and advice.

just press key learn, move the encoder and paste that over the top, also not sure what effects come with vdj as I deleted the standard effets a long time ago, they are pretty terrible so double check the names are correct

Also that is the first script so it will scroll the same effects backwards and forwards

what effects you using now are they all from vdj addons or from varoius other sites.

one more small subjject

on itch there is an option that if you press shift and one of the loop functions you get rolls at varied lengths that facility is not vdj without manually doing it.

what sort of map is used for that.
 

geposted Sun 29 Jan 12 @ 8:09 am
I use a couple of vst's but mostly the addons from the forum, they are great quality now...

In regard to the loop roll you can map it no problems but you won't have access to the effects to do it until you register vdj unfortunately as roll isn't native

Hey once again many thanks

I was wondering. I have pressed key learn, touched the FX selector on the NS6. The next box down has a string of text is it that box that I copy and paste this info into, not the big box down on the right hand side.

cheers

finally I have gotten around to actually inserting this text into the fx select control.

At the moment I only have fx select working on one deck. I have copied and pasted the text to the other deck to, although I assumed it would have done that as standard.

But I still only have fx select working on one deck

I think the ns6 is defined differently than usual... paste this on the individual encoders.

How about you start with a Legal version of the software - crack copies are inherently buggy because someone has manipulated the code to make it work illegally.

There is nothing wrong with the mapping of the unit and choosing effects. I have the NS6 and the mapping works as intended. Nothing in the scripting language would limit the mapping to only selecting items that start with a 'B'.

If you do have a legal version - then register it and download the latest version.

boredom mostly... LOL, Sorry Chris I'll try to stop, but I haven't found a real job yet... ;-P

Thanks for your kind input chris, the actual reason for my setup not working effectivly is and was not anything to do with being a CRACKED VERSION but thanks again for the detailed description on the mappings and stuff.

The actual reason was I had far to many pluggins or shall we say fx, some of which never worked and others worked fine. Since my last post I deleted 200 or so and reverted back to factory settings for NS6 mapping and I no longer have the dreaded only finding the fx with "B" but now it finds flanger or beat grid or what ever.......and works again flawlessly.......

I have left my setup now with around 7 fx............so Chris what is the max VDJ will read in conjunction with a legitmate version of VDJ using the FX selector on the NS6.

So a lesson learned for me, seeing as I used to use keyboard shortcuts before or mouse I never really bothered to worry until now......

Thanks for your invaluable help and advice synthet1c

You say it has nothing to do with not being a 'cracked' version, so why not buy and register a license?

Also, there is not a limit to how many plugins VirtualDJ may have installed. The problems come from the corrupt/non-working plugins that you have acquired from illegal sources.

So, get a license and register it so you can properly get the plug-ins from our site along with clean install of the software - then you wouldn't have to trouble yourself with issues like you experienced.
