Okay - here's what I would look up in the manual if there was one:

1) Instant doubles across 3 decks.
2) Mouseless browsing and loading of tracks into the 2 main players
3) Setting up cue points on tracks, and having them load when the track is loaded.
4) Map cue points to MIDI pads.

That should do it for now. Oh, and I'd also like to do all of this with MIDI. I'll be setting up a Bomes Template for anything that requires keyboard shortcuts/hotkeys to enable control of these elements by MIDI.

My thanks in advance!

-Pat.

Is it all MIDI buttons you are using for control?

Yup - just pads for now. I might add some MIDI rotaries in later for hi/lo-pass filters, but that can wait.

Oh - and I'd also like (maybe):

5) A sampler that has 8x1 slots that reaches the width of my screen. (Just making wishes now...)

yeah, well good luck with that one, hehehehehe.

1) Instant doubles across 3 decks.

the "CLONE" action doesnt work yet, but you can use the track selection and load to clone tracks (loading a dupe track into another player will clone the original playing track anyways)

2) Mouseless browsing and loading of tracks into the 2 main players

quite an easy one, cant be setup with MIDI learn though.

the code below is that of the MIDI editor, to keep it simple for you.

Code: Select all

//Media Base select (scrol starcks)
#xx xx xx SELECT   active player   -1   1   INT NOUP
#xx xx xx SELECT   active player   1   1   INT NOUP

//Load track into player (Player 1, 2 and 3)
#xx xx xx LOAD   player 1   1   1   NOUP
#xx xx xx LOAD   player 2   1   1   NOUP
#xx xx xx LOAD   player 3   1   1   NOUP


No instant doubles? I thought clone was working - if I load a duplicate track into the 2nd player, will it play from the same point as the track in the 1st player?

3) Setting up cue points on tracks, and having them load when the track is loaded.
4) Map cue points to MIDI pads.

You can set by pressing your mdi mapped pads on your controller, after the hot cue is set, pressing them again will jump to your cue.

Code: Select all

//Player 1, (load to empty, Jump to location)
#xx xx xx HOTCUE1      player 1   1
#xx xx xx HOTCUE2      player 1   1
#xx xx xx HOTCUE3      player 1   1
#xx xx xx HOTCUE4      player 1   1

//Player 2 (load to empty, Jump to location)
#xx xx xx HOTCUE1      player 2   1
#xx xx xx HOTCUE2      player 2   1
#xx xx xx HOTCUE3      player 2   1
#xx xx xx HOTCUE4      player 2   1

Yes the feature works, but by mouse/mouse +Ctrl key only. you cant control the feature by MIDI, unless you just load the same track in each player.

What about saving cue points so that they are loaded next time I load the track?

the locations should be saved automagicaly, after you have set the locations, right click the track in your media base and select Edit infos... go to the Locations tab and make sure the info is in there then click ok to save it.

it does on Producer anyways, may be diff on DVS 7. i'll look into that for you.

Cheers Gakto - that's a very important feature for me. (I love that word - Automagically". Cool...)
