Hi guys,
Not sure which area to put this in, so bear with me. So, anyway, I recently purchased a Numark Mixtrack Pro. I want to map the eq kills / hot cues at the top so i can press a shift key, and the buttons at the top alternated between eq kills or hot cues when the shift is toggled. I need a variable within a variable, as when the secondary, new shift key is off, the delete hot cue shift still needs to work.
A quick reply would be awesome :-D
Thanks,
Ben

here you go, this is for the low kill and hot cue 1, you havn't explained exactly how you want it set up, so just use this and change the eq kill and hot cue number as you please for both the button's and the LED's
it will work so the shift is only on when you are pressing the button down. with the delete cue button this will be a toggle switch that you arm with the button then you can disarm with the same button or press the hot cue to delete, the delete shift will not work when you have the normal shift engaged
shift button
set 'shift' while_pressed
cue delete button
var 'shift' ? nothing : var 'delete' 1 ? set 'delete' 0 : set 'delete' 1
hot cue button
var 'shift' ? eq_kill_low : var 'delete' 1 ? delete_cue 1 & set 'delete' 0 : hot_cue 1
hot cue led
var 'shift' ? eq_kill_low ? blink 300ms : off : hot_cue 1 ? on : off
delete button led
var 'delete' 1 ? blink 300ms : off
if you get stuck on the verbs to use check this page

you should also register your serial so you can take advantage of the effects from the plugin section of the website.

Similar problem with mine. I have just received my mixtrack pro yesterday which has 3x EQ Kill Buttonsand a Tick Button at the top but when you press them they act as hot cues.
How do I do the above that you have stated so I can press the Tick button to alternate between these acting as EQ Kills or Hot Cues ? I have absolutely no experience whatsoever with mapping etc so can you let me know exactly how to do it.
Also, how do I register my software ?

If your controller came with VirtualDJ LE version register the serial number of the software to your Profile Page http://www.virtualdj.com/users/edit.html under LICENSES tab.
Note, that VirtualDJ LE versions do not allow custom mapping, except during the 20days Trial Period. You will need to upgrade to Pro Full version at a discount ( http://www.virtualdj.com/products/oem.html) to get this among other features http://www.virtualdj.com/products/comparison.html
Read about how to map a controller, here : http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/How%20do%20I%20change%20the%20mapping%20for%20a%20button.html

Ok question then, with the toggle shift function, is there away to do it so its ONLY on shift while the button is being held down? I am programming a Midifighter and will probably be switching to VDJ (finally) from traktor if I can get this finished, don't care for traktor at all...

the shift on this page is already set to a momentary shift, that is done by scripting "set 'shift' while_pressed".
I unfortunately don't yet have a midifighter, but have made an extensive mapping for it, could you get me a little information from yours so I can finish the definition file.
if you have the new firmware, could you get the SysEx ID with the below program pressing the "send" btton up the top of the page
http://www.virtualdj.com/download/miditrace.exe
I need the "vid" and "pid", to get that on Win 7 go into control panel --> devices --> right click the midi fighter --> properties --> hardware tab --> properties --> details tab --> in the drop down menu select "hardware id's" then paste the result in here, it should look something like
USB\VID_2580&PID_0001&REV_0100&MI_00
