Novation no longer have a dedicated page for the controller but drivers, manuals and MIDI reference guide can be found by search the Twitch product at: The Novation Support Page

=======Audio Setup=======

Configure Channels 1 & 2 for Master output and 3 & 4 for the Headphone Cue. The top right section are analogue hardware controls for the onboard audio interface and do not affect the related controls within Mixxx. Note that the Headphone Mix knob has fully anti-clockwise for Master and fully clockwise for Cue, the reverse of most DJ mixers.

VU Meters have been configured to display Master if no PFL is selected and to display the Channel selected on the side which has PFL On (including paging for Decks C/D.) As all LEDs are red the meter has been calibration so if the top LED is lit then your signal will be running into clipping. It's best to keep is so the very top LED remains unlit.

=======Mixxx Mapping=======

The above shows the controller as per the manufacturers website with the Serato layout printed on the hardware. This is based on what in the MIDI mapping literature is referred to as Advanced Mode. With the controller came an overlay for the supplied Traktor based on the Basic Mode MIDI mapping, which has hardware buttons for deck layers which coincide with the Shift keys on the Serato layer and thus using the labels as per the Serato layout is really not applicable if programming in Basic Mode.

This is a photo of the overlay for the Traktor/Basic Mode the Mixxx mapping has been based from.

Throughout this guide I will display the button labels as on the Traktor overlay first with the labels on the hardware unit displayed in () parenthesis so it is clear for users of both.

Known Issues

None of the Init codes in the manual either remembered or reset the FX Params paging, thus if the mapping is (re)loaded while Mixxx is in operation and it's not set on the default (no LED lit) page then it will not display as controlling the FX page it's on until a button has been selected. This shouldn't be noticed in normal operation.

User Options

fxOnUnitMaster Set to 0 for FX On buttons to globally turn On/Off effect 1-4 Set to 1 for FX On buttons to assign Master to effects 1-4. DEFAULT is 1 as this is how the GUIs have been designed. (No included GUI has on screen indication of if an FX is enabled but the LEDs work and you may find this more useful than assigning to master, plus it's useful to be able to turn them On/Off no matter which page for the Pads you currently have activate.)
