MIDI mapping in Traktor Pro 2 is not the easiest thing to do. Programs like Xtreme Mapping make it easier and more convenient, but wouldn’t it be better if you didn’t have to map anything at all? Thankfully, you don’t have to do any mapping if you have a Kontrol X1 and want to use sample decks as Traktor Pro 2 has an included sample deck mapping for the Kontrol X1 MIDI controller. For more information on the included MIDI mapping and a link to buy a controller overlay, visit the Native Instruments sample deck overlay page.
