I've been working on the wiki and reviewing controller mappings lately. I did a little editing to the language of the DJ Hardware Guide (http://mixxx.org/wiki/doku.php/hardware_compatibility ), split the custom caps section to its own page, and revived the old headphones section on its own page.
In reviewing mappings, it has become apparent that there should be guidelines on how to handle main & headphone gain knobs on controllers. I added a section to the Contributing Mappings page (http://mixxx.org/wiki/doku.php/contributing_mappings#main_headphone_gain_knobs ) with some guidelines and started a new page (http://mixxx.org/wiki/doku.php/operating_system_mixer ) with information about adjusting sound card levels. It would be great if others could contribute details and screenshots to the new Operating System Mixer page. Two cases that I'd like to ask about is when a controller has a sound card without any gain controls or doesn't have a sound card but does have main & headphone gain controls. In these cases, should the controls be mapped to the software gains in Mixxx or not? If they should be mapped, then I think the controller's wiki page should advise users not to use them in most cases and link to the OS Mixer page. I also split the Contributing Mappings page into smaller sections and put a bit more context in the introduction. I added a little section on documenting how microphone inputs work too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Get Mixxx, the #1 Free MP3 DJ Mixing software Today http://mixxx.org Mixxx-devel mailing list Mixxx-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mixxx-devel
