Pioneer DDJ-FLX4: one or more MixxxControls ... invalid (sampler count)

[sanmannor]

Bug Description

I updated to version 401 and when mix loaded it displays an error. ive updated to version 449 same issue. I'm using the a ddj-FLEX4, on windows 10.

one or more MixxxControls specified in the outputs section of the loaded mapping were invalid. some LEDs and other feedback may not work correctly.

• Check to see that the MixxxControl names are spelled correctly in the mapping file (.xml)
• Make sure the MixxxControls in question actually exist. Visit the manual for a complete list: https://manual.mixxx.org/2.4/chapters/advanced_topics.html#mixxx-controls

Oh, an unexpected effect of #12657

The errors indicate that the FLX4 mapping expects 16 samplers, but it doesn't set [App],num_samplers accordingly. Only the default minimum of 4 samplers has been created.

Which skin do you use?

Do we need to increase the default number of samplers to 16 because more mappings expect that number? Or shall we require mappings to explictly set [App],num_samplers in the init() to the number they expect?

[ronso0]

Actually, the FLX4 needs to be adjusted. It should use the same iterator as other mappings: https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Amixxxdj%2Fmixxx+num_samplers+path%3A%2F%5Eres%5C%2Fcontrollers%5C%2F%2F&type=code

Maybe this is an edge case but it seems to apply to a few mappings I think: a mapping connects to the the number of available samplers (e.g. Shade skin: 8, LateNight: 16) during init(). Iit is not aware of new samplers when they are created (switching to a skin with more samplers, LateNight -> LateNight64) until the mapping is reloaded or Mixxx is restarted.

Is the reported error message only created for js bind attempts or also for xml mappings? I.e. are xml mappings connected internally when they are parsed, or only when controls are triggered by the mapping?

I am using a reloop terminal mix 2 and with 2.4 now having that problem. Attempting to reassign the first affecting controls I found (track volume and track quick fx send) with the wizard does not update control functions.

@rjpence How this that relate to the samplers issues?
