Use Pioneer Ddjsb2 With Mixxx

****** IMPORTANT NOTICE *******
- Please refer to Operating Instructions (Quick start guide) for how to use the Sample Track. Tutorials, manuals & documentation Find all tutorials, manuals and documentation for the DDJ-SB2.
- Filter: Pioneer DDJ-SB2 Nowadays, more and more DJs are using VirtualDJ Pro Full to be able to use digital music instead of traditional vinyls or CDs. Still, using digital music doesn't mean you'll have to sit behind a computer and use a mouse and keyboard.
- Dec 29, 2017 DDJ-RB midi mesages Hi, I am performing a midi mapping for the DDJ-RB to Mixxx, I am using the document that is provided on PioneerDJ website for the List of MIDI messages of the DDJ-RB.
Jan 28, 2017 Pioneer DDJ-SR MIDI Mapping for Mixxx Description. This is my attempt at mapping the Pioneer DDJ-SR for Mixxx. 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? Pioneer DDJ-SB2 Michael Stahl, DG3NEC Pioneer DDJ-SB2. Mixxx Community Forums. DDJ-SB2 and mixxx. Install the driver from Pioneer if you haven't already and use the ASIO sound API. I am an audio production instructor and we're trying to use 3 of these with Mixxx in a small music production program. I read on the forum for the SB that the best mappings work on the Mixxx 1.12 beta. Those mappings are on this thread.
There is a new fork available for this project: https://github.com/jardiacaj/mixxx
I recommend installing this one and start testing this and give feedback to jardiacaj on github

This version has way more functionality then my version. Check it, test it. Thanks
Description
This is a basic mapping for Mixxx for the Pioneer DDJ-SB (2 decks). The code is based on / forked from hrudham's project: Mixxx-Pioneer-DDJ-SR (https://github.com/hrudham/Mixxx-Pioneer-DDJ-SR). I've used the same methods but stripped it a bit so it works for my DDJ-SB and also so the code is understandable to me. I like to understand what I implement. So I might have deleted some cool functionality from the original project ..

- It requires v1.11. Certain functionality will NOT work in previous versions.

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:
- Download the following two files:
- [PIONEER-DDJ-SB.midi.xml] (https://github.com/wingcom/Mixxx-Pioneer-DDJ-SB/blob/master/Pioneer-DDJ-SB.midi.xml)
- [PIONEER-DDJ-SB-scripts.js] (https://github.com/wingcom/Mixxx-Pioneer-DDJ-SB/blob/master/Pioneer-DDJ-SB-scripts.js)
- 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/
- Windows:
- Make sure your Pioneer DDJ-SB is plugged in and turned on
- Open (or restart) Mixxx, and enjoy using your (semi-functional) controller
What's implemented?
I've only implemented what I need and 'know of' for now..
General
- Cross-fader
- Volume ControlChannel, Master and Headphones
- Manual FilteringHigh, Mid and Low
- Playlist browsing
- Back : switches between Tracklist and Sidebar
- RoatrySelector : browses through the Tracklist of the Sidebar
- RotarySelectorClick : Expands or Collapses the Sidebar item
- Load : loads the selected track in the Left or Right deck
- Sampler Control
- Push : Starts playing the sample from start
- Shift-Push : Stop playing the sample
- Pitch Control
- Inverted. With my current skin I can not get this to work as intended even if I change the setting
Deck Controls
Play / Pause / Cue
- Cue: Sets the Cuepoint when not playing, Jumps to Cuepoint when playing
Vinyl Mode
Keylock
Precue'ing /crossover-7-mac.html.
Hotcue Control (4 can be set)
- Push: Sets the hotcue and lights up the LED of the pushed button.
- Push again: Turn of the hotcue point
Autoloop Control
- 4 Autoloops can be set (no shift use on Performance Pads yet) on: 1 beat / 2 beats / 4 beats and 8 beats
- If you want other beatloops you need to change the xml and the LoopInterval Enum in the Init() function
Manual loop Control (still buggy)
- In : Sets in point
- Out : Sets out point
- Exit : Not working yet. Pretty annoying :)
- 1/2 : Cut loop in half
Jogwheel ControlWhen playing in normal mode, only touching/turning the side will result in pichbend. All otherinteractions are disabled in this mode.
NORMAL MODE (when playing)
- Pitchbend using the side of the Jogwheel
NORMAL MODE (when not playing)
- Scratching / Seeking when turning the Jogwheel surfaceI've switched this to Scratchmode, it makes seeking by using the jogwheels quicker.
For the next mode I've tried to make the DDJ-SB behave like a vinyl as much as I understand of it.
- VINYL MODE (when playing)
- Brakes when touching the Jogwheel surface, Starts again when releasing.
- Pitchbend using the side of the Jogwheel
- VINYL MODE (when not playing)
- Scratching / Seeking when turning the Jogwheel surface
What's missing?
Pioneer Ddj Sb2 Driver Install
- Shift Functions of the Performance Pads
- Manuel loop bug
- Reversed Pitch Control
- Channel Filters
- Crossfader Automatic Filter
- Effects (Not available in Mixxx I think?)
- Decks 3 and 4
I will definitly fix the Manual Loop bug and as I go along and need more stuff I might implement the exta functions (Performance Pads Shifts) same goes with deck 3/4 which, atm, I don't need those.

If I stumble upon good code to do the filtering, I will probably implement that too. Suggestions are welcome.
