I’d love to see this feature implemented as well! Your suggestions sound great and seem to align with some of the new features in RekordBox, if I’m not mistaken. However, I think what you’re proposing might be a bit ambitious as a first step.
In my opinion, we should at least start with a ‘simple’ automatic Cue Point feature—just placing a Cue Point where the track begins. I actually suggested this back in July, and it received a lot of votes and additional remarks. People also proposed adding options, like you are asking, such as marking the first beat, the first vocal, or the last vocal, which could be fantastic enhancements later on.
For now, though, having the basics in place would already be a big improvement imho. So people, if you like this idea, please vote for this suggestion using the vote box in the upper left corner! Let’s make it happen!
I think this is a great idea. With Djay Pro driven by AI technology, this shouldn’t be hard at all. To have cue points and even loops automatically added with settings to set them how you want would be golden.
Thanks for the suggestion @Mauri_Moore and for the additional feedback @DJ_Big_Blender and @Dysfunk_DJ. I have passed this onto the dev team for consideration.
I was about to file my feedback (coming from Traktor) at some point and this is one of my biggest struggles currently using the software.
What Traktor does:
Place the first cue point on the first beat.
This should be standard in any DJ software if the track is analyzed first time / has no cue points.
I’m DJ’ing not on big stages but on company parties and weddings. I cannot prepare every single track and need to act quickly / play wishes. For that I need to be quick, load a track and have the first beat right away.
With DJay Pro, I always have to search and find the first beat. This is really a no-go and needs improvement. Definately voting up for this!
This missing first beat detection and lacking visual feedback for beat jump are the only two reasons holding me back to use the software more professionally.
