XDJ-700 and Traktor pro

Hello! 

Pioneer, when are you thinking in updating the XDJ700 so they work on Traktor as the XDJ1000? It's something pretty easy to do as is it's just a midi controller, and well, would be mad to have it :) I tried to add them on my setup but it doesn't work at all. 

And denying to just buy the XDJ 1000 it's pretty nasty as a brand :(

You can configure them yourself within the MIDI mapping, Pioneer has not released an official TSI file and HID support require Native Instruments to provide support for them on their end.

Oh ok! So it's on Native's side to bring the support :) Guess the only thing to do for now it's wait :)

I'm trying to mapping myself but i'm having problem with some buttons on the display and also with the jog. Can't wait for NI official support, i've just dropped an email asking about it.

In the meanwhile someone of you have made a manual mappings?

thanks :)

Ciao Carl,

this is the official reply by NI, right now:

"You are correct, the Pioneer XDJ-700 are currently not supported in Traktor 2.

I have just created a feature request for this topic:

• TP-11343 - "Please add "Advanced HID" Support for Pioneer XDJ-700"

It is still totally unclear when and if these XDJ models will get supported and we
have to wait and see if any changes are beeing made to implement these players."

 

 

So in the meanwhile the best way is to made ourselves the mapping. I've downloaded the cdj 350 mappings and it works for the basic features, but the touchscreen functions are not mapped and also the vinyl mode is not working well..

well, for basic use you can download the cdj 350 mappings: please note that you need to set midi channel 1 for left player and midi ch for right player.

I will modify this mapping, but for now i'm testing it cause some function are strange, for example the vinyl mode /pitch bend functions stop to work ...

 

Carl and other user here, can you test it too ? (please add me on facebook :) )

Oscar, just tried it. it works better then cdj 350 mappings;

the touchscreen works but:

 

1) the loop size selector doesn't activate the loop 

2) the loop size arrow works as cue call and not as loop move

3)rec and call doesn't work

about the normal functions all works good except the vinyl mode that is always on even if it's not on.

I will try to modify these mappings ...but in the meanwhile the best way is to play with the usb pen i guess...or to switch to rekordbox dj even if i think is not good to spend other money to buy that program...for the price of the xdj pioneer could send license as gift...

Hi Oscar, sounds like some tampering still needs to be done, hopefully pioneer/trakor will issue a mapping in the near future!

@Oscar & @Mauro - I haven't managed to figure this out. How do you assign the second deck to deck B? Regardless of focus both decks are currently controlling A for me!

Using the XDJ1000 mappings linked above, assigning the right deck to CH 2 stops it from affecting any deck (though ctrl flashes when cue/play/fader is pressed)

Ciao Gavin,

you have to go in the utility menu of the xdj you want to control the deck B and change the midi channel number from 1 to 2 ;)

 

Anyway with manual mappings pitch control is not the same as HID support..can't wait for NI to have HID supported in these xdj

Please note that any technical support for this product is solely handled by PIONEER. Unfortunately, TRAKTOR (SCRATCH) PRO 2 is not compatible with the Pioneer device due to changes in the specification of Pioneer's hardware integration. We are working closely with Pioneer to resolve the compatibility issues. 
 
Yet there's support for the XDJ 1000...smh

See their post - "Working closely with Pioneer."

Currently, if you want MIDI control, it's up to you, the user, to map it.

HID support is being negotiated.
