An option to keep cues in chronological order would be much appreciated! Currently if you want to go back and add a hot cue thats in between two that are already set, you have to delete and re-add. It would be a huge time saver to just click a hot cue and have the existing hot cue slide over to the next chronological bank, especially when gridding hundreds of songs in a single sitting.

thanks in advance.

It would be great to add a button next to the pencil in cue tools for consolidating the cue points starting from Cue 1

I searched

- Device model _(e.g. 2020 iPad Air 4th Gen)_: MBP 2013
- Version of operating system _(e.g. macOS 14.4.1)_: Sonoma
- Version of djay _(e.g. 5.1.2)_: 5.1.2
- Hardware/controllers used _(e.g. Reloop Mixon 8 Pro)_: FLX10

**Your question:**

Can hot cues be sorted chronologically? Just like Serato

Hi @Mufasa, this is currently not possible with djay. However, I have merged your new topic with this existing suggestion. Please cast your vote at the top left of this page. Additionally, I have brought this up again for consideration with the dev team. Thanks!

Hi

Are you able to edit the title to “ Sort hot cues in chronological order “

It would be easier to find and vote

how about the ability to drag and drop cue points to change their order? is it doable? Maybe somebody else would find this helpful as well.

Please introduce ‘Cue Points in Chronological Order’

As DJay currently is, the order that you set the cue point in the song, is the order that it stores the cue point to the pads regardless of where in the track it’s placed. This undesirable because if you first assign a cue point in the middle of the track and it gets stored to first cue pad, and you then set a cue point at beginning of the track, it then get assigned to second cue pad. This can get very confusing.

I just moved over from Serato DJ Pro for DJays fluid beat grid (absolutely genius btw) and it has the option to turn ‘Chronological Cue Points’ on and off and really miss that. Please make it so in DJay. Please!

Thanks Slak\_Jaw,

Guys, please vote for this even if you haven’t experienced this luxury before in Serato or any other DJ software, it will benefit you if it gets introduced in DJay.

Can algoriddim please add chronological cue points and to be able to lock cue points when performing. I’m a serato user and these little things make a big difference. Also can we get an option to turn off soft take over.

Can we get the option to have chronological cue points in djay pro? It seems like a small thing but it really makes life easier. I saw that this feature has been requested in the past but those topics have been closed now.
