Quick tempo mapping question...
Posted on: 30.07.2010 by Annalisa Shogren
Hey all! I own a Numark Omni Control, and one of the things that annoys me about the pitch bend buttons is that they don't change the pitch permanently, i was wondering whether there was a way to map it so that it does as the pitch slider isn't accurate enough and i hate using the sync button.

Back when i only had a mouse to mix with in Virtual DJ, it had that feature and i found it really useful to get the tracks perfectly in sync and how i want them. I can't seem to find the right Add In under tempo for it, so any help would be appreciated!

Many thanks!

the vci jogs have 2 separate notes/cc's for the pitch bend and scratch. the clear plastic bit (used for pitch bend) outputs a different signal to the metal plate (used for scratching). so you should be able to do it without affecting the scratch sensitivity. just keep in mind the plastic bit has 2 signals, one for each direction.

but it should give a gradual pitch down on the slider and give you the same kind of control as the bend does

@Bradcee, what i'm trying to say is that when i change the pitch with the pitch bend buttons i want it to stay where i pitched it too, and not slowly move back? I did as you said and it helped slightly but it's still not accurate enough i'm afraid.
yeah, sorry i kind of aimed that more at jog wheels than buttons, my bad
