Do you still need software, if so hit me up via email use my screen name at yahoo dot com

I'm really intrigued about these.

Djworx had a first look hands on and it came out quite favourable as it was pretty cheap.

Managed to get the editor from someone else, but thanks. Although I'm a little disappointed with the editor, it's very basic and not much help for what I want to do. But I should have a nice mapping soon.

Cool. When u get the mapping can I please get a copy. Having a hard time with mapping

Here's a little (long) video I did on MIDI output mapping with the Numark Orbit and some of things it can do...

Hey folks,
first of all thank you konix a thousand times for your contribution! As always you saved me from getting lost in my problems.

But unfortunatly I still have some issues. My setup is:
1st Usb-port: SL2
2st Usb-port: proffessional-Usb-Hub (with power supply) with Dicers, KontrolX1 and an Orbit plugged into it.

- Dicers are for the cue-point juggling techics
- KontrolX1 is for navigation, looping, FX and so on (pretty much a rane62 functionality rebuild with midi mapping)
- Orbit is for AbletonBridge controlling (in the Ableton tab) like clip launching and stuff

At first I sorted and configed all controllers to a separated channels. Dicers have natively channel 11-16 (native serato mapping), KontrolX1 channel 1 and Orbit channel 4.
I.Side note for a bug: the Orbit sends a midi signal (cc 16) when you switch between the 4 banks. So avoid to map something to cc 16!

Than I mapped everything an edited the serato midi xml file. I noticed that serato is adding double entries for same mappings. so I wrote a small java code
to sort and unify this mappings-xml alphabeticaly.

After all struggle I started playing and had bunch of dropouts where KontrolX1 stops working until the next mac-restart. Lately I noticed that the orbit is flickering when the battery dies after some hours.
this is definitely one suspect of the midi fault. Even pluging the Orbit to a cable on the usb-hub doesn't reduce flickering. I am not quiet through this, but maybe this little infos help anybody with similar problems OR even somebody can help me ;)

Last thing: I tried to get a better overview for myself by sorting the colors by colors and not by the value. Due to this it is easier to config a button in on/off mode. here is the resorted list with a view renamings in it to make the sorting work better for me:

here is a half baken excel sheet with the colors docs.google.com
I will complete it in the future.

Greets and thanks for any help in advance
Gin

Does the orbit work with serato scratch live SL1? jw I em trying to move from Dicers to the Orbit.

serato.com
:-)

Big Shout-out to Konix serato.com for all the work he has done so far on fully mapping the Orbit and especially on the output lighting. Bit thanks to GinSoul serato.com for the excel sheet too. That is coming ing handy for me. Plain text tires me out quickly. Lol. Just got my Orbit and i'm spending quality time mapping it out.
One question though, for those that own an Orbit, where on your Setup do you place it? My laptop (a monster Asus G73SW) has a palm rest bit enough for it, but one of the reasons for getting the Orbit in the first place is to have my hands close to the laptop less. I also tried on the mixer knobs, but its not too firm. Any stands, mounts or something? Any tips on where you put your Orbit?

Thanks!

hey people,

can i change the color of the jogwheel?? i would like the blue led to be red :D

thx in advance

Hey Guys....

Anybody has any output command to make lights blink ? saw that on Konixs Video, that the Orbit was mapped to do so on manual loops...wondering if i can manually edit something like that on the XML for my Neons to make something flashing...

Cheers
Nik

The buttons blink with manual loops cause the in/out buttons also blink in the Scratch Live GUI. The buttons on your controller should flash automatically when the in/out buttons are mapped. If you're wanting other functions to flash, I don't think it's possible, unless it's blinks/flashes in the GUI.

Thanks Konix...that clears things up

Cheers
Nik

Wish the slicer mode could be mapped, would go great with the Numark Orbit and the output lighting on the controller. :/

With 1.7.6 my mappings completely stopped working for this controller. I started over from scratch to see what the xml file would look like and right now I want to scream.

The xml file that serato writes out is an utter mess. Midi lighting also stopped working on my controllers in 1.7.7 including the orbit, and others are having this problem too after hand coding xml files carefully and lovingly.

I don't want to go through that whole process again, it took days to code the midi output lighting and map all the controls.

So annoyed.

Do they just not check this stuff before they send it out?

I should say that they are having the midi output lighting issues with controllers other than orbit too. Something is busted.

I rolled back to 1.7.6 and my midi lighting came back and I can map the controller again. Not sure what is up with 1.7.7.

FYI, I tried to completely remap orbit on 1.7.7 because NOTHING worked anymore. Half way through mapping, the controller disappeared and no input worked on the controller anymore. I restarted, and the mappings were still there, but serato was not getting input.

Other software (ableton, mixxx, arsenal and hybrid3) had no problem with the controller, so I know it's not a hardware issue.

Rebooted, serato detected orbit, first time I hit a button, it vanished again and wouldn't register.

Something definitely broken in 1.7.7 midi. Rolled back to 1.7.6, problem gone.

Hi guys, where can I find maps for the Orbit for SeratoDJ?
I tried to map but there is a bit 'of confusion in the mapped controls, something is wrong ... the colors, for example, are not stored.
in short, a mess.
