DJ Quartz’ Traktor Pro Mapping for Numark’s NS7 (including platter support)

Native Instruments surely takes its time to officially support Numark’s NS7. While most users are content with Serato Itch in the meantime, others strive for the ability to use their beloved Controller in Traktor Pro. DJ Quartz is one of them and he has been working hard to create the best Mapping-File out there.

Demo

MusicAlthough it has lots of flaws and shouldn’t be used in a live environment, I’ve created a small video to show you what is possible as of now. Please note that the plattern-support is broken in Traktor Version 1.24. I’m using version 1.23 in the video. I recommend to view it in HD.

plattern-related

  • Cue-points work unreliable if the plattern isn’t spinning

    Here is a change log file for the lastest TSI file. It lists all the new functions that have been mapped.

    NOTE: You will need to use Traktor version 1.2.3, there was a change in 1.2.4 that broke the modifier which behaves as a switch for the platter control function.

    Hopefully it will be resolved in the next update.

    It needs to be assigned manually as Traktor can’t save the setting.
    I’ll update this post soon and explain how to achieve this.

    Here is how it would work if we had native support for the NS7. Please join my Project NS7 Facebook group if you haven’t yet.

    ITS THERE ANY MAPPER FOR NUMARK NS 7 WITH TRAKTOR LE VERSION….I LOVE TRAKTOR BEAUCOUSE ITS THE BEST DJ SOFTWEAR IN THE WORLD AND I WANT TO USE IT WITH TRAKTOR

    @Alexander:

    Currently the support is not too well, but I’m already working on a new method.
    If you really love Traktor you should upgrade your LE-version to Traktor Pro for around 99$.
