There should be a few mappings for effects controllers. The MIDI Fighter 
Twister and Traktor Kontrol X1 Mk2 would be good for this.

The Pioneer DDJ-SB is a cheap ($250), popular 2 deck all-in-one 
controller with a built in sound card. It comes with Serato DJ Intro 
which intentionally disables features like recording mixes until the 
user pays extra, so this could be a place for Mixxx to shine. There is a 
mapping started on the forum:

The Tweaker mapping is not ready yet. I will finish it before 1.12 though.

There is mapping for some of them in the forum.
Doing a simple search with mixxx + brand name + model name gives forum 
entries with mappings attached.
We should probably take them out of forum and include in mixxx
For example :
Electrix Tweaker http://mixxx.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=7189
Behringer CMD MM-1 http://www.mixxx.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=6201

Re: [Mixxx-devel] most wanted mappings

Yes, there should be a goal to achieve here. There could be more than 
one. My intention in making the above list was thinking about what 
controllers we could recommend to people who have never DJed, which 
seems to be a large portion of people trying Mixxx. To this end, it 
would be great to have a mapping for every controller on the list of 
ones we don't have mappings for that costs $300 or less.

We could try reaching out to manufacturers for donations. How has this 
gone before? I have been thinking of reaching out to Electrix about 
making a Mixxx certified mapping for the Tweaker. Pegasus, how did your 
interactions with them go regarding the Ebox44 (and why did they 
discontinue such an awesome little device?)

It would also be great to get a Linux driver written for the Numark DJ 
iO, the cheapest 4 output sound card I can find. Apparently the DJ iO 2 
is class compliant.

Hello,
There should be some outcome for this. Mappings are very important for 
getting people to use Mixxx. There also should be some option in start 
wizard for easily assign your device. Can we have Quiz about this in 
Mixxx blog when 1.12 is released where this is asked (What mapping do 
you miss most)?
