Is there an Auto cue function on Cross. The type of thing you have on cdjs?

in auto cue, if u have a.cue engaged, the cdj will always automatically jump to the first beat and it will start like that. Ive noticed with Cross, when I set cue points, I'd have my track lined up on the cue point and then hit play. It would go back to the start of the track instead of playing from the cue point.

I want to find a way that this function mimics cdjs in some way. sure its just a setting maybe, right?

While player active + playing to get back to Cue:
Press 'C' or Cue button = Cue + stop
Press CTRL-ENTER (stutter) = Cue + Play

Press SHIFT-C to move Cue point to current play position (while playing)

Cross goes back from End of Track to Begin of Track. Wouldn't be my choice, but can only be one position to go to. Might be something to request as a setting to have user chose to go back to Cue or BOT (or maybe even a locator position)

Wow. Never knew this! Is the U-Mix Control Pro 2 programmed to do this?

EDIT: I've looked at the mapping and indeed it can be mapped.

Don't have this controller, but command are accessible for keyboard and MIDI, so you can create it yourself if it isn't.

thank you.
im new to time code really, and Id be honest to say that I dont really like the idea of using a laptop. I just use this at home, as I play out every night, so dont really need an expensive set up overhaul right now. However, ive been giving it a go, and it seems to be ok. I wont play out with it yet, but it seems all cool.

Edited my post. Two Cue commands are listed, "Cue" and "Cue and Play".

I thought it was mainly for video and 4 deck control? I can barely master 2! Am I wrong?
