Here is an example for the RMX in MIDI

RMX_definition.xml wrote :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<device name="RMX_CEL" author="djcel" type="MIDI" decks="2" drivername="Hercules DJ Console Rmx MIDI">

<button cc="11" name="LEFT_PLAY"/>
<button cc="35" name="RIGHT_PLAY"/>

...

</device>

RMX_mapper.xml wrote :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mapper device="RMX_CEL" author="djcel" description="RMX djcel" version="600">

<map value="LEFT_PLAY" action="deck 1 play_pause" />
<map value="RIGHT_PLAY" action="deck 2 play_pause" />

...

</mapper>

or more easily (to avoid defining twice the same function in the mapper file [2nd xml file])

<button cc="35" name="PLAY" deck="2"/>

...

</device>

</mapper>

or if you want to map two different functions in the 2nd case (for example play_pause on deck 1 and play on deck 2):

<map value="PLAY" action="action_deck 1 ? play_pause : play" />

...

</mapper>

I used the "drivername" solution which is not the best one but the easiest to use ;-)

To get "drivername" or "sysexid", use :

MIDI devices tool
http://www.virtualdj.com/download/miditrace.exe

"drivername" is displayed in the right part

For the Hercules DJ Control MP3, the name will be:

drivername="Hercules DJ Control MP3 MIDI"
