Finally found a use for gain encoders
Finally found a use for gain encoders Posted on: 03.05.2011 by Libbie Deutchman I'm trying to do more and more track prep before gigs nowadays, at least for the tracks that are definite must plays for that set. I set fade in and fade out cues in spots that I believe are good transition spots and leave a little note in the name with the length or type of the transition for that spot.Anyways, these are cue points that I wouldn't really want to be hotcues necessarily, as I'm not going to juggle jumping around to different parts of the song or whatever. So I was using my mouse to click the prev/next cue buttons in the cue menu, which kinda sucks to do and I'm trying to use the mouse as little as possible. Saw this writeup on disabling the gain encoders: TraktorBible.com and it got the wheels turning. What I ended up doing was only disabling the encoders for C and D, as I use those as sample decks and mapped the encoder to be relative and scroll through the cue points on the track. Works like a champ, totally loving it. Just thought I'd share in case anyone was believeing about something similar. | |
