locatorkind's are integer :

Value = 0 = OFF
Value = 1 = ON = HOTCUE NORMAL
value = 2 = ON = HOTCUE LOOP --> need to program with "MIDI loop".

;)

locator kind control is used in conjunction the LED on/off command to control a new behavior.

For example, (and i can't get too specific because I am currently doing gigs in sunny Puerto Rico and all my programming reference files are back in Maryland)

Locator kind control value = 0 locator is not set not triggered so corresponding LED is off

Locator kind control value = 1 locator is set, so LED is on.

Locator control value = 2 locvator is a loop and LED wil blink.

This way
locator set = LED on
locator off = LED off
Loop locator set = LED blinks

There are other subcommands and required program syntax for this but I can't remember them right now.

best thing is to duplicate the new mapping for the DDJ-SX and examine the code and you will fire out what they did.

P.S. P_Jean beat me to the punch Grrrrrr :mrgreen:
