In BETA at the moment *** New DMC/DAC2 Mapper for VDJ 4.0, DMC Optimized ***
----------------------------------------------------------
Note: This Mapper only works 100% with VDJ 4.0
----------------------------------------------------------
This mapper is Using jpboggis excellent mapper code as a base and also parts of halo_djk's latest mapper functionality. Thanks to both of them.
I made this mapper since i really wanted to have this functionality on my DMC, and every DMC/DAC2 mapper here uses the [ FX ] button that the DMC doesn't have. With this mapper i now have almost total controll over all important functions without using extra controllers/kbd etc. But you can also use it with DAC2.
-----------------------
- DMC Optimized ? -
-----------------------
Simply, functions using the [ FX ] button on DAC2 are also mapped to other buttons to use on the DMC1. Also, some button-combinations that works on DAC2 doesn't work on the DMC.
Below is the functionality i have working in the current beta version. If you think i should add, change or remove anything just let me know. I will release it very soon, but if you want a beta version, just send me a message.
