I was able to midi map the Crossfader FX selection to the rotary knob on my Hercules DJ Inpulse 500 controller. I have to press the assistant button (which only has a dedicated function in the Djuced software by Hercules) and the big knob on top of the controller, which is also for browsing through the library. It works as expected but the FX menu doesn’t pop up, which means, I don’t see which Transition FX I have chosen. Is there a way to change this? If not, Algoriddim should add this with an update.

Hi @Andreas_Haase1, there is no setting to force the CFX select popup menu to open via MIDI commands. However, I have changed this topic from a Question to a Suggestion and have forwarded this to the dev team for consideration. Thanks!
I suggest to write the midi command for displaying the menu directly inside the “crossfader fx toggle” so that we don’t need mapping an extra button. Thanks for the suggestion @Andreas_Haase1 .

When I hook up a controller to DJay Pro 5.0 for MacOS I have pad buttons designated to turn crossfader FX on and off as well as select next and previous, I have to hit the show mixer button with my mouse, then hit the drop down arrow for crossfader FX to see what the buttons are doing. Can you make it so the crossfader FX can be seen with the press of a midi mappable button like you can with FX, Sampler, Neural Mix and beat grid editor?
A start would be to make show mixer midi mappable so it is on less button I have to push with my mouse.
Hi @Stygma. Thanks for the suggestion. This is similar to an existing one so I have merged them together. Please use the blue Vote button a the top left of this page so we can gauge user demand for this. Thanks!
Thanks, I appreciate it
You’re welcome @Stygma
In the new version 5.2 it’s possible to map Crossfader FX function to switch it on and of. It’s also possible to map Crossfader FX Select, which on my Reloop Buddy is mapped to “shift” and “Loop Size” rotary. There’s still no pop-up menu to see to which transition effect I’m switching to. Please consider it for the next update.
Hi @Andreas_Haase1, please do not create multiple topics for the same feature request. This makes it harder to track votes and to keep the conversation organized. I’ve merged your new topic with this existing one. Thank you.
Yes I posted a similar request a while ago (cant find it now). Basically would like a way to see the currently selected CFX. An elegant way to do this would be to show it in small text under the on screen crossfader when CFX is toggled on. That way one can scroll using midi-mapped buttons. When you turn it off, you don’t see it anymore. Another similar request is to have favorite list. I hate scrolling between a long list when I only use 2-3 of the CFX. Thanks
Thanks for the addition input @djchase. I’ve passed this onto the dev team.

Ok after having my Mixtour Pro for couple of months now and loving it I’m now starting to use the crossfader fx for something a little bit different in my mixes I just keep it on the shuffle option which gives me something slightly different each time.But what I’d love to see implemented across all platforms that when in this mode have the ability to have on screen feedback on which effect is being used when I move crossfader that would be cool thanks

Could we please have an option to raise the CFX pop up so we can see and select which effect we want without having to touch the screen.
The access button is so small and awkward on the ipad screen and I have activated other functions by accident trying to use it quite a few times now.
Trying to memorize the order and also where you are currently at with it does not work.

Thanks for the suggestion @daniel_curley. Good idea. I have forwarded this to the dev team for consideration. In the meantime, please use the blue Vote button at the top left of this page so we can gauge user demand for this feature. Thanks!
Voted. I agree, would be such a great feature. You have next and previous midi mapping capabilities but what’s the point if you can’t see a visual to see what effect it is.
