Super Combos – Controllerism Meets Street Fighter

We are always working deep in the DJTT labs on new ideas that push the limits of DJing while staying within the bounds of what might be useful in a live set. Today, I am proud to introduce a new concept that has been in development for several months: super combos. A super combo is just like the Street Fighter game, where you use a few basic controls in a very specific sequence to produce different and remarkable results. Everyone knows that with the right flick of the wrist, a simple punch gets turned in a fireball in the Street Fighter series. It’s also no secret that the Midi-Fighter is inspired by that classic game, so it seemed absolutely natural to build on the concept of using secret combos in the world of DJ controllers. Continue reading for a video demo of the new “Instant Gratification” mapping for the S4, which contains super combos, free Street Fighter sound packs and a new mix contest!

This was designed for use with the S4 but can be used in a lot of other contexts. The primary requirement was instant aural destruction of any audio source with zero opportunity for messing up a song (all buttons are mapped to instant FX). This mapping takes advantage of the brand new 4 banks mode (4 banks is included in the newest firmware update), which allows the top 4 buttons to switch between 4 banks of notes. Here are the basics:

  • Each bank controls one of the four decks, A/B/C/D
  • Each button loads, activates and routes a specific effect to that deck
  • The effects are chained (from bottom to top) so you can build on them producing almost endless sonic possibilities
  • They are designed to be played in combination, similar to my original “cue point chord” concept
  • There are 5 super combos hidden in the mapping
  • Each combo kicks in when a specific sequence of events happen
  • They are all designed to be used musically in a 4, 8 or 16 count sequence.

GET YOUR MIDI FIGHT ON!


To celebrate the mapping release and see what you can do with it, we are running a contest and providing free Street Fighter samples. Use these samples, in conjunction with any beat of your choice and a Midi-Fighter, to create your own personal brand of sonic mayhem. Create a video of the results and you can win $200 credit towards anything in the web store. Here are the steps:

  1. Download the samples here
  2. Download the Instant Gratification mapping (Midi-Fighter required for this one)
  3. Pick your own beat (the simpler the better!)
  4. Mix the 2 together in a creative way using the mapping
  5. Make a video of the results
  6. Add it as a video response to THIS VIDEO
  7. The winner will be announced in the forum in 30 days (March 7th)

Some recommendations would be:

  • Sequence the samples together in a unique way (as shown in this article)
  • Use another controller, like the S4 or Midi-Fighter, to launch or loop the samples over a beat.
  • Take advantage of the mapping to break down the samples and the beat
  • Find the super combos and show your skills!

LEARN HOW TO BUILD THIS MAPPING YOURSELF WITH ANY CONTROLLER

That’s great, you might be thinking, but I don’t have a Midi-Fighter so how can I use this concept?  Don’t worry, our resident mapping expert, Chris Lim, will be showing you how to track multiple button conditions using complex modifier techniques in just 2 days. Get plenty of rest and don’t forget your vitamin B kids, because this stuff is not easy!

    Question! Has anybody, or you guys a djtt found a way to do this with the remix decks now? I would love any help in re-setting this up using them. I had used this mapping with combos back then and it was amazing so I wanna try again with remix decks but I have idea where to start. I currently use a modified version of instant-grat for my spectra. Any help would be appreciated!!

    does anybody know how to map buttons to trigger effects and then change the FX amount smoothly the way Ean demonstrates the transpose effect in the video? I am fully capable of mapping buttons to go to specific FX-amount values, but not to have it smoothly go from 100% to 0%

  • Deejay Gee

    not top stupid but is this for s4 and ts2 .Can it be used with tsp 1.2.7 and a vci 100 se up to date and midifighter

    • Deejay Gee

      Supposed to say not sound stupid lol

  • Ehokcfb

    I know you said middi fighter required, but if i use an x1 would i still be able to enter?

  • JY

    I’m going to be honest, I don’t mean to moan but this is the first competition where one has to own a midi fighter to enter and that for me says the business just entered the blog something that I think is pretty bad.

    Having told us not that long ago the future is about controllerists not using set equipment, that is about how it sounds not what you own, DJTT has just started making contests to exclude people that don’t use there hardware.

    I’m not angry just really sad to see DJTT do this.

  • Walshatron

    Awesome! Can’t wait to get back from holidays and load this up! I can’t beleive you thought it all up, and it sounds super rad.

    I take it this means that you are only using the midifighter as an effects box. Is there a way to use it with both cue points and effects (say 8 and 8 buttons?). Or does that mean re-mapping?

    If you’re jonesing to get this stuff on ANY of your own controllers, I’ve written an easy to follow guide on my blog, it will in fact teach you how to do the super combo demonstrated here. I haven’t looked into the other 4, but I’m going to constantly update the blog with FX combos that are usable.

    just got mine… AMAZING! changes everything… .. cant wait to see you guys rock out in the m.i.a. on the 19th! (only issue… its mainly for just one deck but im sure the mapping will evolve settings for dedicated rows for each deck)

  • Lol4k

    Excuse me but …
    What does Ean mean by “There are 5 super combos hidden in the mapping”
    I don’t have a MF so I can’t test this mapping …

    I think this Super Combo is the controlerists Scratch.

    Can’t you just map multiple functions to one key the way Hawtin does with his 2ds?

    ive emulated a midi fighter on my ipad.. wireless midi war!
    cant wait to try this new mapping out.. stupid work.

    the competition is for the mapping! just enter.. im sure ean loves to see people doing all sorts of stuff. wether you have a MF or not.

          Oh no ‘Mr. Neo’ I didn’t know you had to have ‘perfect grammar’ to DJ, shame on me!!!!? What a fool I am to big up a unique product like the Midi-fighter.

  • AWESOMO

    will someone convert this mapping into a dicer mapping for me? im a DJTT loyal reader and I want it handed to me. I have paypal let me know thanks!!!!

    • Sheepy

      Relatively sure you cant fit it onto a dicer, You could get the beatmasher combo on there if you dont mind sacrafising your loops/hotcues buttons but certainly not the whole mapping. Simply not enough buttons on there to make it viable.

  • Overtyme

    I got my S4 only a week ago and its a little overwhelming.. Tho I still love to begin to learn effecting tracks with jogging effects and begin to learn bout performing music another than just using the S4 to mix.

    Btw, love the video.. Street fighter was my favorite game for arcade.

  • dual citizen

    This is amazing. As a proud Midifighter owner and life long Street Fighter fan, I”m super impressed. DJTT continues to up its game and contribute creative, innovative energy to this community.

    I don’t even want to acknowledge the mindless criticism from newbie haters but can’t help pointing out that all of this is portable to any midi controller and Ean says in the post that they are going to show you how to do it on your own! However, I have yet to encounter any buttons more responsive than those Sanwa arcade buttons on the midifighter.

    Also, these kinds of complex mappings are very time consuming not only to develop, but also to implement and work out all the bugs. By giving this awayfor free, DJTT is saving us a lot of work so that we can focus our efforts on the fun stuff: creative mixing!

    In short, excellent work and thanks a ton guys!

  • Cionni

    Nice mapping!

    Now i edited my bomes converter, a section of the keyboard has the deckalized mf mapping, and the other section got this mapping.
    It was kinda a long work to create the 4 banks in mode but it’s working great!

    i like it

  • Miguel

    Wow, that’s simply amazing! Big thanks to DJTT team. Ean, just one thing, if you can create something like this for the Kontrol X1, this would be really fantastic. Kontrol X1 has established itself as the standard DJ controller, no matter which software you use for DJ. Of course, being a Traktor fan and knowing that this controller will continue its legacy in “the future of DJ”, in other words, will still be the preferred controller for the next version of traktor pro, then it’s really important to have such powerful weapons / combos to drop with the Kontrol X1 as well. Btw, if Allen and Heath are reading this, it’s time that Xone X1 gets upgraded with some decent lights feedback (the buttons should light up to enable us to get more visual feedback to avoid having to look to the laptop all the time). As Richie said, we’re living a time where there are infinite possibilities out there to suite our own specific needs and having DJTT work out the somehow still complicated mapping for traktor it’s wonderful. Last word for Native Instruments, please invent some easy software to create traktor mappings easily and quicker. Best regards to DJTT!

    • pienzig

      again.. its pretty easy to make a template for the x1 midi mode with native instrumenst controller editor, so it behaves like a midifighter.. then you can use ean’s mapping right as it is (well, i had to adjust the effect selects for some reason). for the lazy ones: http://extralooping.de/midifighter.nckx1

      • kontrol x1

        Hi man! Got it to work, but the effects change. How did you fix that?

        • my name is not billy

          You need to have the effects set exactly the same way ean does. Download eans Tsi file and import it but when it asks you what to import ONLY select effects settings.

      • kontrol x1

        Hi man! Got it to work, but the effects change. How did you fix that?

  • Sambo

    I’ve spent a good few hours now messing around with the samples (Which I already have all of in my extensive nerd library, how sad is that!) and I can honestly say to create a… uh.. ‘tolerable’ tune using the samples is nigh on impossible haha. Also, the files wouldn’t load into a traktor deck individually so I has to compile them in ableton into one track. Just the samples are mostly vocal hooks and they sound cliché and totally amateur when you put them over a beat.

    Or maybe (most likely) I’m just a naff DJ and should stick to my guitar haha

  • marko

    Question…
    How many midi devices will Traktor recognize?
    S4+midifighter+something else?

    • Sambo

      As many as you can fit on it mate. As long as you have enough MIDI ins and outs, there’s no limit.

  • marko

    Woot Woot! I ordered a midifighter today!
    I have had gas for weeks now over this little button beast.
    And alot of people whining on here saying you can get a midi controller for cheaper…You CAN also get one for more$$$$$…And it has Arcade buttons. Cool!
    Customizable, and more durable than the thin korg pad things.
    I am saying WIN for the midi fighter and Ean.

  • RCUS

    Hey Ean, can I enter the contest if I use Ableton and the samples with my MF or iz dis a tractor only ting? Sick video by the way, really nice mapping!

  • NoiseNinja

    Would this work if I had a mixtrack and a MF? Or does this only work with the s4 software?

  • Woof

    liking the new mapping! keep them coming!!

    and to all the people complaining this is a promo for the midifighter, theres nothing to stop you applying this mapping to any controller that has 16 buttons!!! or as i tend to do, pull it apart and add chunks of it to my current mappings,

  • Enzo

    It would be silly to have a comprehensive guide to mapping the MIDI Fighter because everyone is going to want something different. I rock a turntable set-up and I have mine mapped for 8 hotcues, dropping a quick loop, dropping a custom loop, triggering effects, etc. Someone without a turntable might want a pause/play button, or more access to effects. Everything you need to know about mapping in general comes from reading the manual and if you're mapping LEDs, this:

  • R3 Bonaire

    my question from this morning has dissapeared. I think it happened with the new system layout. so i will ask it again.
    Ean you stated that in TR pro you need to import the TSI twice.. Why is that so? I didn't know about that. And import twice after each other or import and close down and re-open and import again? i am getting confused with this methode….. Please advice….
    i like the demo and again the mapping support, looking forward to the wednesday article about mapping lessons.

  • Shog

    Sick demo.Watched it twice!
    I really like the whole idea of the MF,i really want one just to mess around with those awesome mappings.I still haven't figured out though,how am i going to implement few of the effects in a EDM set.I spin mostly EDM so it is a bit of a confusion to me.The mapping is a killer though!

    Great work DJTT

  • quenepas

      yeah well they don't want to hear from experts…this site is meant for idiots and Ean intends it to remain that way.

      Bad comments are no good for sales.

      • ain't no dj site

        Dude this is a massive leap forward in controllerism 😉

        What do you expect if these kids realize they could go out and buy something as simple as an akai ld 8 for cheap and be better off than midi fighter. I've seen people in other DAW forums dismiss these devices. I don't feel this comment is out of line it is the truth. I don't think that these devices are velocity sensitive which means they are only for trigger loops. I promise you can trigger loops better on pad controllers than these. If I wrong I would love to see controller comparison video.

      • Zach ( Dj TechTools)

        no ones comments have been deleted- we are just switching to a new comment system and some of them are in a "limbo" while everything gets processed. Apparently all the blogs comments need to be sorted first and that takes many hours. sorry for the pain in the ass 🙁

        • beatbandolier

          Zach is exactly right. DJTTs has amassed 24,276 comments, this makes for a VERY large xml file transfer to the new system. The server is processing it as quickly as possible, but I can promise you I've been in the backend of the comments section for nearly my entire workday, and noone's comments have been deleted.

    This kinda erks me as a Glitch-hop DJ who has worked very hard for a very long time to coin a interesting live performance. I feel like you just shit on my genre and gave it to the plug and play kids. makes me sad.

    Very nice mapping though.

    • @jeremysexton

      If your performance is easily duplicated by someone making a controller mapping, what does that say about what you're doing? I'm going to guess that if you've been doing it for a long time and working very hard, the stuff you're doing is going to be heads and shoulders above kids that are just now playing around with a preset.

      We have decided to move to Intense Debate. The database of old comments is being ported over to the new system as we speak and all the comments will be back online this afternoon.

  • DJ no name

    ean does it again……

  • Patch

    I'd prefer if you gave us the knowledge to create the mappings ourselves on our own controllers. It does seem like you're just pimping the Midi Fighter by providing mappings specifically for that controller.

    • DJNiteFlite

      Then read the article….. it says Wednesday they'll be teaching us how to do exactly that.

      • Mrm

        Patch hit the nail on the head. Teach the kids how to fish already man…

        I hope on Wednesday this will become the new DJTT mantra. You'd take it to the next level.

        • jasonmd2020

          All I gotta say is RTFM man. I didn't wait for vid tutorials I cracked the book (or in this case the pdf file) that came with the software. Got my Midifighter working along side another midi controller flawlessly. Just start going thru your gear manuals & experiment. (Just remember to back your shit up so you don't lose anything.)

    • tha gooch

      Ya they should stop supporting their own products so much and trying to earn a living! I want free tutorials and mappings for my Ion Discover Dj! This Place has been going downhill ever since that Ean guy showed up. Lulz…

      • Anonymous

        Are you slow?

    • Aaron Liven

      Teach yourself. You obviously have an internet connection. The knowledge is yours for the taking.

      What's wrong with them promoting an awesome product they created anyway? I'm sure they have bills to pay. They can't just give it all way for free. That's not a very good business model. The fact that they support their products with updated free, original, and creative mappings goes far beyond what most companies in the controller business do.

    • DJ Essentials

      Why does everyone want to be spoon fed. There are atleast 2 articles on mapping in Traktor. I suggest that you search for the articles on modifiers. *TIP* Use the search function of this fine website

    • DJNiteFlite

      I can.

  • Sambo

    I created a mapping practically identical on my launchpad about an hour ago, what are the chances. Can I enter the competition using a launchpad? I really could do with the response time of a MIDI fighter haha.

    I mean, if it’s only midi fighter and S4 owners that can enter, that narrows it down to like what, 2000 people globally? And if they can afford an S4 I doubt they need $200 credit lmao.

  • DJ BOW-tanic

    amazing, routines like that could finally convince me someday to replace my very costumized and hot loved T3, where I made most of the TPro stuff possible – until now.

  • WillB

    Not really that good of article.
    Just promo/advertisement for your silly little “Midi Fighther Controller” What a waste of my time

    • ridim

      and your comment was a waste of mine!

      aaaaaaagh the humanity!

  • hmmm

    Well im glad your getting away from “heres another mapping!” to showing people how to create advanced mappings. Hopefully next wed wont disapoint!

  • Rockson

    I wonder if a cheat guide will pop up in the Forum!?!
    What do you press for a Sonic Boom?!?! UP UP DOWN DOWN LL RR??!!!!lol

    • Amazing

      …BA select start

  • Ryan Dejaegher

    I know it’s based off Street Fighter but is there any chance for a fatality button?

  • George

    Awesommmmme!

  • Quenepas

    This is very cool thanks alot! I hope Capcom doesnt show up and wreck the party!

  • popoff44

    I’ve been doing the same thing with my LPD8. It’s very cool, but not very easy if you are creating your own mapping from scratch.

  • Benny Jr

    Pretty sweet. makes me want a midi fighter even more now lol

  • Tyfurious

    Holy Sheet!

  • Kontrol X1 user

    Hey Ean, can you make a mapping just like this for the Kontrol X1? That would be really awesome!

    • pienzig

      simple template for kontroll x1 midi mode: can just control
      2 decks though (lower 12 button=fx controll, upper 4 buttons = freeze fx, shift off = deck a, shift on = deck b)
      geht it here: http://extralooping.de/midifighter.nckx1

      • Kontrol X1 user

        Hey thanks! When I press the link, all i get is text. Do you have tsi i can download? 🙂 Much appreciated!

        • pienzig

          hi, this is allright.
          do right click => save as, to save the file to your disk. this is not a traktor .tsi but a template for the native instruments controller editor. open it and in the “templates” tab choose edit=>append=>open and point to the downloaded file

          • confused

            I can only save the link as an xml file, and this file type can’t be found by in the controller editor. What should I do?

        • Kontrol X1 user

          Hey man! Thanks for replying! So far I did what you said and now the hotcue button is color green. When I launch traktor scratch pro, while the hot cue button is green, and i press the buttons. Nothing happens? What am i supposed to do? Thanks! This is my first time using midi mode and the kontrol editor.

  • mxalmond

    ive have something set up like this for my 2 octave keyboard thats just for fx 🙂 love it

  • fullenglishpint

    This is PERFECT… my midifighter arrived this morning and i just finished building it! Can’t WAIT to get home!

  • Anonymous

    I havnt got a midi fighter can we enter the comp with any 16 pad controller. Just using the pads

  • Coldfuzion

    Can’t wait till I save up a bit more money and pick up a MIDI-Fighter of my own!

  • Tomii

    And another one!!!!! THE COOLNESS OF THIS SITE JUST JUMPED YET AGAIN!

    I have a couple of questions about The downloadable content of the MF and using the S4 and the Midi Fighter in tandem.

    1. when using the effects set by the MF mapping. Does it affect the effect settings I have set on the S4? (ie.. using the vci se and the X1 in tandem, am unable to set one effect for each section of the controller and the X1)

    2. Once we find all the combo’s will we be able to download more?

    3. Is there a way to be able to incorporate a Arcade Joystick, which could provide more combo possibility.

    4. and this is just something I have to ask!! Will you be able to connect to the actual Street Fighter game like the guitar or the wii controller does.

    Im sure you have some Mad Scientist in a box under your bed in your secret layer. Im sure that Mad Scientist (we shall call him Bob) loves to play Street Fighter.

    5. So can you take some of the actual combos from Street Fighter (Here is where it gets interesting) and be able to play the game while you pop the brains of the victims on the dance floor???

    6. Future Midi Super SFighter World Capcom Tournament. Held at Amnesia Night ClubIbiza Spain!! (when thinking…. you got to think big right…. worked for beatport.)

    GREAT WEB SITE +++++10

    • Tomii

      Aw come on!! these were great questions!!

  • Rockson

    -K-ing Awesome!

  • pienzig

    hey, i just made a simple template for kontroll x1 midi mode, emulating the midifighter behaviour, to use with this mapping. can just control
    2 decks though (lower 12 button=fx controll, upper 4 buttons = freeze fx, shift off = deck a, shift on = deck b)

    • Djerikt

      Sweet, I was having a tough time mapping in midi mode, since I couldn’t get note values to hold down, they would turn on and off, I’ll move this over to the forum or check this tomorrow.

  • Aymeric

    N33D !

    saving on pizzas to buy this piece of kit…

  • Flik

    Excellent, even more reasons to invest in a midi fighter…

  • Karlos Santos

    This is EXACTLY why i come here.
    Absolutely first class work and all for free for the community.
    Gonna give my MidiFighter a work out today !!!

    • itajeN

      And just when I thought the InstaFX mapping was heaven. This is amazing Ean. SUPER COMBO FINISH!

      Karlos is the reason I’m here <3

      • Karlos Santos

        LOL… 🙂

  • R3 BONAIRE

    Ean question , why do you have to load the TSI Twice in TR pro? Is this something i didn’t know?
    And how, just import and do that in the same tap again. Or do you have to close TR and reopen and import again???
    i am getting confused with this statement.

  • Chris Jennings

    Wow, I’m not going to get much work done today that’s for sure. As a side note If you’ve created any other user mappings for the S4 or have another Midi Fighter or keyboard mapping you should probably export and save them so you can import them again after loading the instant gratification mapping.

  • Slam

    That’s great !
    Just need to master it now and find the special combos !

  • BradCee

    Genius idea to btw (hit submit too soon)

    thinking i might copy this idea on my right hand dicer on the page that deals with an fx chain…

  • BradCee

    no midifighter 🙁

    but tempted to d/l the map and deconstruct it to find the combos…

    • Padi_04

      same 🙂

  • theory28

    awesome. i was thinking of stuff kind of like this the other day, but had no idea how to set it up.

  • MichielyGil

    great to see there’s a tutorial comming up on wednesday too, since I happen to have 4×4 buttons unmapped on my 2nd X1 :D!

  • Synthetix

    awesome. will b downloading with my new midifighter

  • Gzo

    Good one. Very interesting!!

  • ovv

    A quick note, I’m guessing that the winner should be announced March 7th, instead of today. 🙂

    Otherwise, looks sweet. Might need to invest in some midi fighters.

  • loop

    It’s amazing! Thanks for the mapping and the demo!

    now, I once again want to get a Midi Fighter as a must,must :). Please, consider an EU based partner to ease us up on the import and taxing stuff.

    please, please, please!

    Thanks again, it’s very inspirational!

  • Stephon Ikos

    Amazing!! Cannot wait test the new mapping and incorporate it into my sets!

    Keep it up DJTT!

  • a.d.j.

    Awesome! Can’t wait for the mapping tutorial.
