Changing tracks using pitch fader on CDJ800

Hi all,
I've been using Cross 1.6 now for a while with the timecode cds on CDJ800s. I see that using track 2 of the cd I can use the pitch fader to select tracks in the current track listing. The problem is that it is super sensitive - I barely move from 0 and the selection moves so fast that I can't actually stop it on the correct track. Is there any way to make this a little less sensitive?
Pundy.

Try to use a tighter pitch range on your fader, or use the jog in CD (pitch bending) mode.

The pitch fader on a CDJ800 is +/-10 or +/-100. I'm currently set on +/-10. I guess on vinyl decks +/-6 would probably make it easier to use.

Bit of a *duh* moment though when you suggested using the jog wheel. Not sure why I didn't think of that - maybe a couple too many beers that night. I play in Vinyl mode, but should be able to use the outer of the jog wheel regardless of CDJ/Vinyl mode. I'll give it a go when I get everything set up again from the last party.

Thanks for the help.
