Hey David,
So I’ve been using Traktor Pro 2 for a little while 3-4 months, and I recently purchased a Pioneer DDJ SX and can I start by saying that (as you probably already know) this is probably the best standalone midi DJ controller out there. Great Jog wheels, the pads are awesome, build quality, knobs, faders etc. the whole Shibang is primo deluxo!
But one failing are the jog wheel integration (as already mentioned in this post). I recently posted (see link below) asking people for an explanation of why Traktor cannot integrate with 3rd party Jogwheels. I guess I’m trying to get a sense of whether it is a marketing thing, or maybe a technical incompatibility. Either way, one cannot do proper scratching with the Traktor-SX combo (only simple baby scratches), happy to go into more detail of my experiences here if you wish.

That said, everything else is fine. I downloaded a midi mapping TSI file from JaJa Artwork (French guy), and I think Coltrane09 above has a link to this. I’ve done my own mods to this midi mapping, but it is pretty comprehensive, and the other cool thing is that he/she updates it regularly, adding new features.
So everything is great, except for the damn jog wheels, and I’m hoping someday that someone, somewhere, somehow comes up with a solve for this issue.
