Rane 12 MK2 MIDI Map

Hi all, I have purchased a Rane 12 MK2. I had seen you were able to use it as a timecode device. Now after exploring a little bit I also see there is a .ini file for the device as a generic midi controller. I am unable to get this device working as a midi device though. Traktor is reading the midi signals as I can see it flash at the top when I press buttons. I cannot however get Traktor to register these button presses at all. Also after inspecting the mappings for the device in controller manager, they do not seem to quite align with the buttons and other inputs on the rane 12 mk2. I am trying to get this working as a MIDI controller, without the RCA cables, It works as a timecode device, not as a MIDI for me.

Current system/setup:
Traktor 3.4.2
OS Windows 10 Build 19042
Devices Kontrol S8, Kontrol F1, DJTT Midi Fighter Twister (all working with no issues)
- Happy to provide any further information that would help


What I have tried:

• adding the device multiple times
• Setting the in/out ports to about every combination
• Mapping from scratch
• Changing the device target
• importing the .ini via the filesystem
• adding the device via the dropdown in settings
• Deleting the device in device manager (windows) and reinstalling it
• Reinstall Traktor
• rebooting all connected midi devices after everything I have tried
• rebooting after everything I have tried
• restarting traktor after everything I have tried

So I am wondering a few things:

• Am I completely misreading the situation here and need to stick to timecode?
• Am I completely missing something obvious?
• Is there more to this I am not realizing?
  
  
  
  Thanks in advance. Much Love All

 

I didn't do a great job of explaining my issue. I was really only trying to get the play/pause button to work in non-DVS mode. I was able to figure it out, I had to add the following modifiers. once I figure that out it seems everything else just started working, so that's pretty cool. Sorry to bother everyone with this as the importable .ini works just as it should and I'm a bit of a dummy. Here's what my solution looked like after adding the proper modifiers:



Now i can use it as a scratch deck and a non-scratch deck if I want

 

I would like to know details of how you got the Rane 12 to work. I feel like I'm close to getting mine to work, but I'm missing something and can't seem to stumble upon the solution. Thanks in advance.

 

Sure happy to help, what seems to be the issue?

 

Basically, I am in the same boat you were in. I want to use it as a scratch deck and a non-scratch deck. I've gotten as far as getting the S8/Traktor Pro 3 to recognize the unit, but it still does not allow me to manipulate the track. First, I want to confirm that the picture of the settings you posted is in the controller editor. Strangely, after DJing for almost 30 years I have brilliantly managed to never map a single device somehow, so this mapping thing is quite new to me. Like 3 hours new, not counting the time I was trapped at the playground today with my daughter, hence the late reply, haha. Second, where does one find this .ini file that you refer to? Thanks in advance for your assistance and any insights.

 

sure thing, give me some time and I will make a video showing exactly what I did.

 

I think I can say for all of us who are bumbling about this issue thank you, fantastic, and I await with eager anticipation. In the meantime, I'll read up on mapping theory!

 

D4-I got it sorted. I went to controller manager, found Rane, picked the listed Rane Twelve and that was it. Everything on the thing works now, and I had no issues with the waveforms going wonky (as was reported by some users) so far. I'll post up some screen shots in the next day or so.

 

You guys run your rane twelve with traktor 3 pro?
I’m still on Traktor 2 Pro, a similar Setup (S8, F1 and a Midi Fighter 3D) and would like to know if I have to upgrade to T3P to use the rane twelve properly.

 

If it is not in the controller manager, then consider upgrading. Find the Rane devices and see if it's listed. You may be able to map it with Traktor Pro 2 but I am unsure. I've not turned my system on for a bit due to work but will later today and I'll post what you should see.

 

Hey guys, sorry for taking so long to get back to this got swamped with work and wasn't using my rane 12 for a while for space reasons. I plugged it back in today and tried the same thing as before and it isn't working, If I figure it out tonight I'll post something again. Nothing is working right now
