New to scratching. Need help with Mixfader Macos connection


Recommended Posts

Hi.

I have just bought a used Mixfader and I have a Numark PT01 Scratch with Serato Control Vinyl.

What I am trying to do is connect the Mixfader to my MacOS via Bluetooth.

Can someone help me as it didn't come with a user manual.

Mixfader sent me the following which I tried but I can't connect the Mixfader to Bluetooth in the Midi Studio, it just won't find it - 

Download the Mixfader Companion app for MacOs.

Then, you should be able to connect Mixfader to your computer by following the steps below (but the compatibility is not guaranteed)

-------

-Open the "audio/midi configuration" utility

-Display the MIDI studio

-Click on "configure bluetooth", with the MF Companion software open and your Mixfader in "search" mode.

-Run the bluetooth scan, then return to Mixfader Companion

-Your Mixfader should now appear, and be ready to be mapped to MIDI

-------

Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Welcome to the forum!

I've no experience of what you're trying to do, but hopefully someone will be able to help. The forum is really quiet these days, so it might take a while before anyone else replies.

Do you have a manual? Do you want me to post up pics of not, maybe it will help?

Hey. Thats really kind of you. 

I have managed to get the Mac and Ableton to see it over Bluetooth but I then can't seem to connect the Bluetooth to the mobile phone at the same time to start scratching. Maybe you are only allowed one Bluetooth connection at at time?

Are you supposed to be able to record directly into Ableton or do you have to record your cuts into the mobile device that you are running the Mixfader app on and then upload to Ableton via midi? 

Maybe I am just not sure.of the capabilities of this device. 

 

Thanks in advance
