Mixxx Ddj Sb2

 admin

I am one of the major contributors to the Pioneer DDJ-SB mapping. I'm glad to hear the DDJ-SB functionality also works on the SB2 I can assist you if you need it to make a mapping for the SB2. I would also gladly try to make it myself (I enjoyed making the SB mapping) but I don't have access to an SB2.

Mixxx mapping for Pioneer DDJ-RB controller

I have a Pioneer DDJ-RB controller and I wanted to use it with Mixxx(https://mixxx.org), however as this controller is newish no one has written the mapping for it. I first tried the mapping for Pionner DDJ-SB2 and I could get the Mixer and basic Decks working but a lot of the feature were not mapped, so I found the Pioneer documentation for Midi mapping and started work on this project.

  1. It may be compact, but the DDJ-SB2 features large, low-latency jog wheels to give you great scratch response and accuracy. Dynamic DJ play. Use the trim knob and level meters to quickly check and adjust the input volume on each channel. Manual filters on every channel.
  2. Jul 05, 2017  Update Pioneer DDJ-SB2 for new effects and looping UIs in Mixxx 2.1 and fix various other issues. New mappings for autoloop pad layer and effects are documented on the wiki. I did this while I was staying with a friend who happened to have a DDJ-SB2. I do not have access to the device to test further changes. It would be nice to finish rewriting this using Components, but I did not have time.
  3. Dec 22, 2014  I show you in this video how to setup the numark mixtrack pro with de mixxx software, this software is specialy design for linux OS, but also exist for windows and mac. The download link it's.

At the moment this is a !!Work In Progress!! while I map all the midi messages. I have not tested the inital version yet.

Description

This is my attempt at mapping the Pioneer DDJ-SR for Mixxx.

Pioneer Ddj-sb2 Software

This was originally written for Mixxx v1.11.0, but I'm in the process of updating it to Mixxx 2.0 as of January 2017. This is very much a hobby project though, so updates may be intermittent.

How do I use it?

If you just want to get your controller working with with Mixxx without bothering about the details much, then do the following:

  1. Download the following two files:
  2. Copy these to the [Mixxx Directory]/controllers folder. This will probably be one of the following locations:
    • Windows: C:Program FilesMixxxcontrollers
    • Linux: /usr/share/mixxx/controllers or /usr/local/share/mixxx/controllers
    • OS X: /Applications/Mixxx.app/Contents/Resources/controllers/
  3. Make sure your Pioneer DDJ-SR is plugged in, turned on, and set up to use DJ software other than Serato (see your user manual, or the Controller Setup section below)
  4. Open (or restart) Mixxx, and enjoy using your (semi-functional) controller

Controller Setup (important!)

By default, your Pioneer DDJ-SR will be in 'Serato-mode'. This means that some functionality quite simply won't work in Mix until you turn it off (for example, keylock for the pitch controls). To change this, do the following.

  1. Turn off the Pioneer DDJ-SR
  2. Hold down Shift + Play on the left deck, and turn the power on.
  3. Turn the left deck's keylock on.
  4. Restart the controller.

To use the controller with Serato again, repeat this process and turn the keylock back off again.

What's implemented?

  • General
    • Cross-fader
    • VU Meter LEDs
  • Deck Controls
    • Volume
    • Play / pause
    • EQ
      • Highs
      • Mids
      • Lows
      • LPF / HPF Filter
    • Cue button
    • Sync button (although this works differently than in Serato; still to be fixed)
    • Performance Pads
      • Hot Cues
      • Rolls
      • Sampler (without LEDs however)
  • Jog Wheels
    • Scratching
    • Pitch Bending

What's missing?

  • Some button LEDs
  • Performance Pads:
    • PAD Plus functions
    • Slicer
    • Sampler LEDs (but sampler itself works)
  • Effects
  • Slip
  • High resolution knobs

I'm a developer. How do I build this?

In order to make things a bit easier to understand and modularised, I've written a basic build process for this mapping. This allows me to do things like define all the midi-mappings in JavaScript, and then let Node build up the final XML file that Mixxx understands. In order to do this, you'll need to do the following:

  1. Install NodeJS if you haven't already
  2. Get all of the node dependencies for this project:
    1. Open a console, command prompt or powershell.
    2. Navigate go to the project folder.
    3. Enter npm install
  3. Build the project
    1. Open a console, command prompt or powershell.
    2. Navigate go to the project folder.
    3. Enter npm run build

The final results of this will be placed in your bin directory. They will also be copied to your process.env.LOCALAPPDATA + '/Mixxx/controllers' folder, so Mixxx should detect them immidiately as well.

You can also optionally run npm run watch, which will rebuild the project any time you edit a JavaScript file in the source folder.

Development Tips

Ddj Sb2 Review

  1. Run Mixxx from a terminal with the --controllerDebug --developer arguments. This gives you all debug output there from your controller, enables the Developer menu, and also provides you with additional development information in control tooltips.
  2. Mixxx does not recognise console.log(..), but you can use engine.log(..) instead.
  3. You do not necessarily have to restart Mixxx for it to detect changes, but it sometimes helps ;-)
