Option / mapping to switch active deck with a 4 deck controller on a 2 deck view

I recently y got my hands on a 4 deck controller Numark ns4fx, and I couldn’t understand if there is a way to show the track/ ViewForm on the actively selected deck. If i push the button to switch my deck on a controller, i can select it from library and load it too the deck, but on the screen it would not show anything, like I’m still on deck one. I thought, ok, maybe i can map this by hand, so when I switch decks from 1/3 or 2/4 the 2 deck view will respond and show me what is there on my active deck, but I couldn’t. Is there an option like that? Everything works on a 4 deck view, but it takes ridiculous amount of screen space, so I would rather use the 2 deck view of that is possible. It can’t be, that you only get to work with decks 3 and 4 literally blindly on a 2 deck view, right? Can anybody guide me on how you go about this one.

Hi @Akrilovy, I think I understand what you are saying. Currently the 2 Deck view only shows Deck 1 and Deck 2. This view cannot be changed for example to show only Deck 3 and Deck 4. If you want to show Deck 3 and 4 you need to use 4 Deck Mode.

Should i make a suggestion for this functionality?

Hi @Akrilovy, using Search, I found this existing one:

Being able to use 4 decks in the 2-deck view would be fantastic! The 4-deck view takes up too much space, and you rarely need it. But being able to switch deck 1 with deck 3 and deck 2 with deck 4 is something you need every day, especially if you use a controller with a dedicated button for that, like the FLX-10, and you’re coming from Serato or Rekordbox.
