The problem is that only the top 4 buttons of the performance pad actually change between these functions ; in Hot Cues mode the top pads trigger cues, in Sample mode, the top pads trigger samples etc.
However: the bottom/lower ones always stay the same, no matter what mode i’ve selected always in the default Stutter, skip, rewind & forward function
Is there a something i can do so that the lower 4 performance pads also change with the mode? so that i can have 8 total queue pads, or 8 total sample pads etc
platform: ipad pro, djay pro with subscription, itunes library songs
Thanks for reporting this problem on the pads of the Numark Mixtrack Platinum FX. Our developers are looking into this. We kindly ask for your patience.
We’ll keep updating this thread with new information.
Performance Pads: The top row of pads is used to trigger loop points or samples depending
on the Pad mode setting. See Operation > Performance Pad Modes for more information.
The bottom row of pads is used to trigger Stutter, Previous Track, Search Backward, and
Search Forward:
• Stutter: Repeats or “stutters” the sample when the pad is repeatedly tapped.
• Previous Track: Goes to the previous track.
• Search Backward: Searches backward through the current track.
• Search Forward: Searches forward through the current track.
We apologize for the inconveniences this might’ve caused you.
I would also like this feature to work as it does in Serato DJ Pro. The reason the manual says what it does is it was designed for Serato DJ Lite which only has 4 Hot Cues, in Pro you can have 8. And it works as @erikdepeerik outlines in Pro.
I have re-mapped the bottom row as cue points 7-8 but the button lighting doesn’t work, it would be good if this was sorted properly
Is there a document about this new mapping somewhere.
You say 8 modes, what are they and where? The ones labeled on the controller are obvious, but if there is a shift or secondary layer, its not documented what they do.
With the first midi mapping. Pads 5-8 had the same midi codes regardless of whether you selected "Cue, Auto loop, fader cuts or Sample.
With the new midi mapping you should be able to assign totally different uses for pads 5-8 when you select each of the Cue, Auto loop, fader cuts or Sample buttons.
So. Select “Cue” then midi map pads 5-8, then select Auto loop and midi map pads 5-8 etc.
