If your controller is not a TRAKTOR READY controller, select No when prompted Are you using an external controller? and continue with Next. Note: When you launch TRAKTOR for the first time after having installed the software (or a software update), the Setup Wizard for configuring TRAKTOR will be launched automatically.
If you are managing a more complex controller setup that relies on several different mappings, make sure the In-Ports and Out-Ports are set correctly in order to avoid problems with the MIDI routing. Accidentally created duplicates can create various issues and may cause the controller to not work correctly. When adding your mapping to the Controller Manager, make sure to only add one mapping for your controller. You can either create your own MIDI mapping or you can import an already existing mapping file. In order for your controller to interact with the TRAKTOR software interface, you need to add a MIDI mapping (Device) to TRAKTOR's Controller Manager. Note: If you own a TRAKTOR READY controller, the configuration is done automatically via the Setup Wizard and you may skip to this article.
