YOUR SUGGESTION:

1. In mapping a controller when used to use a keyboard there was a cut crossfader button and a fast cutting button. Could these be added to map to a controller? I am using the RS1 and i usually customize the button i dont use as much, thank you

Hi @Dj_Los_Inthemix,

1. On iOS you can achieve the **auto-cut / auto-scratch** by touching 2 fingers on the waveform and moving them back and forth.
2. On macOS **holding the G key** on the keyboard performs auto-cut and **holding the F key** performs a faster auto-cut.
3. On controllers where this is supported, if you MIDI map a button with **Target→General** and **Action→Controller Shift Key** , then holding this button while moving jogwheel should auto-cut.
4. In your case, with the RS1, this may not won’t work because it is an External Mixer Mode device. Please give these a try and let me know though.

Hello! It’s been a week since my last reply. I’m going to consider this topic completed for now so I can focus on others. However, please feel free to respond and we can definitely revisit this. Thanks!

I tried mapping to internal mode and most of everything is working just like external mode. except when i move the crossfader completely over one deck cuts out.. other than that its nearly the same with a mappable cut button, instead of using the cross fader, i hope you understand what i meant, i attached some videos

Hi @Dj_Los_Inthemix, the RS1 is an External Mixer Mode only device. I do not recommend setting the Audio to Internal Mixer Mode.

That’s great to hear @Dj_Los_Inthemix. If by “programming” you mean MIDI Mapping, we have a dedicated section for this in the user manuals.
