MIDI Commands to Change Screen Display Modes

Hidden Treasure! Thanks @Slak_Jaw.

You’re welcome @daniel_curley

That option only takes you through the modes. Sampler looper etc.
I meant to switch between hot cues, loops, effects etc.

Not yet implemented in MIDI and it is something we have been eagerly awaiting in each update. Please note, @Slak_Jaw was asking for the same thing in the original post.

Definitely a quality-of-life feature that would make djay Pro more user-friendly (and it’s already friendly).

I know.
@Slak_Jaw wants to map each function to an individual to pad mode.
I am saying as I have the panel raised already I’d be happy scrolling through the functions like you would with the library.
A different approach to the original request but with the same goal to not have to touch the screen when you are working.
I’d take either option or any other way that could be suggested to avoid using my fingers.

Understood. Please make a separate suggestion topic for this @daniel_curley. Thanks!

Currently there is no way to select hot cue, loop, fx display panels from a controller on ios. (Buddy and Mixtour Pro excluded and also limited).
It would be a much better experience to able select or scroll through these options from a device rather than having to select with your finger on the screen.
If I were to load a new track I haven’t familiarised myself with yet I would first want hot cues, then I would like to select a saved loop and then an effect.
This would involve 3 or even 4 personal ineractions with the screen which I do not find pleasant while working.
Library navigation and selection can be done without the need to get “hands on” I believe the same could be done for the above mentioned functions and make the user experience a lot smoother.

When I first saw this on the Mixtour Pro, I also thought that it made a lot of sense and that there should at least be an option to activate automatic switching of the view. In addition, you could perhaps add the option of whether the switchover only takes place after the pad mode has been selected twice (as is now the case with the Mixtour Pro) or immediately on the first selection.

Hi @daniel_curley, please use search before creating new topics. I’ve merged yours with this existing one. You can vote for this feature at the top left of this page. Thanks!

What do you know about these commands @Slak_Jaw?
They would appear to be somewhere in the region of what I’m looking for but when I assign them to various buttons nothing happens.

Hi @daniel_curley, yes, the commands were added a few releases ago, but had to be disabled as the engineering team found some issues with certain hardware. These remain the stepping stones towards adding this functionality in the future.

Reasons to be optimistic then.

This would have to be the biggest let down of DJAY PRO and such a pity for what’s otherwise a granted feature in every DJ software for years…
