I’ve finally got Djay 2.5.2 working on iPad with an external audio interface. I usually use Traktor on a Macbook and while I LOVE Djay for the ease and for small walk-ups and just-in-case house party gigs I can’t believe that the mix/cue balance fader seems to be hidden away in settings. Is that right?
Djay now has pre-listen in the library/playlists which is great, so I want to listen to playlist tracks only, not the main out, in the headphones, then use the button and drop it into a deck. Great so far…
Now it’s in the deck I want to hear some of the main out so I can hear when to start the new track, but as it is I have to go to settings to change that mix/cue balance.
Then when the track seems to be in and happening in time etc I want to change the mix balance to main out only so I can check the actual FOH mix in the headphones but I have to go to settings yet again to change that.
Please, please implement some kind of front-page fader for this important feature. A lot of space is used for the pseudo-turntables and waveforms, why not use some of that eye-candy space for a crucial function as more and more people use iPads etc for djing with external devices?
Mix/cue balance isn’t a set-and-forget, it’s in constant use, look at any big Pioneer etc mixer, it’s right there to hand, not hidden away somewhere.
thanks
