Flow



Execute different action on click and different on double-click (for controllers)
var 'double' ? set 'double' 0 & repeat_stop 'myrep' & device_side 'left' ? deck left clone_deck right : deck right clone_deck left : set 'double' 1 & repeat_start 'myrep' 400ms 1 & load & set 'double' 0

The script uses a timer and waits for 400ms to see if a second click (push) comes.
If not it loads the track on deck, if Yes, it clones the deck to the opposite side.

Script added from Djdad
*Edit* This script has now been simplified with the action/query 'doubleclick ? '
doubleclick ? device_side 'left' ? deck left clone_deck right : deck right clone_deck left : load



Automix



Automix doesn't 0 pitch onload (custom button)
var_equal "AMpWA" 0 ? off & set "AMpWA" 1 & repeat_start_instant "AMpitcher" 33ms & load_pulse ? repeat_start_instant "pitchRem" 1000ms 1 & pitch & param_cast & set "AMpitch" : get_var "AMpitch" & param_cast & pitch : blink & set "AMpWA" 0 & repeat_stop "AMpitcher"

Browse tracks with jogwheel/touchwheel when deck is empty
Touchwheel (Jog)
loaded ? touchwheel : browser_window 'songs' & var $shift ? touchwheel_touch ? param_multiply 100 & browser_scroll : param_multiply 50 & browser_scroll : touchwheel_touch ? param_bigger 0.02 ? param_multiply 8 & browser_scroll : param_smaller -0.02 ? param_multiply 8 & browser_scroll : param_bigger 0 ? browser_scroll +1 : browser_scroll -1 : cycle $b 5 & var_equal $b 4 ? param_bigger 0 ? browser_scroll +1 : browser_scroll -1 : nothing
This script enables you to browse your tracks with your jogwheel when there is no track loaded on the wheel's deck.
It does NOT change your wheel_mode, it will only (but also always) browse, when the deck is completely empty.
The idea with param_bigger 0 ? browser_scroll +1 : browser_scroll -1 is not from me, but i can't find the original post. However this is a much more improved version, as it makes the unusable state of the wheel with an empty deck useful with a lot of tweaking to create a good browsing performance.
It uses not only the shift variable to speed up - it also changes speeds depending on whether you have pressed your touchwheel or not.
If you want to use the shift 'feature', you need to have
 set $shift 1 while_pressed 
somewhere on your shift key.

Auto-Deck-Load System [ADL]
You can put this script on any button.
It will automaticly load the next track in your playlist onto the other deck and delete it from the list when the currently running track has less than 30 seconds left.
It's a mix of automix and manual mixing, so you can make the transitions yourself but have the tracks loaded automaticly for you.
If you put this on a button where you can't individually control the LED (e.g. custom buttons), you should set up another LED (or custom button) with this script:
var $ADL ? on : off
to know if the ADL-System is running or not, because the on-off script returns the wrong LED information!

set $ADL_left 0 & set $ADL_right 0 & var $ADL ? repeat_stop 'AutoDeckLoad' & set $ADL 0 : repeat_start_instant 'AutoDeckLoad' 500ms & set $ADL 1 & deck left select ? & deck left songpos_remain 30000ms ? var_equal $ADL_right 0 ? deck right playlist_load_and_remove & set $ADL_right 1 & set $ADL_left 0 & deck right select : nothing : nothing : deck right select ? deck right songpos_remain 30000ms ? var_equal $ADL_left 0 ? deck left playlist_load_and_remove & deck left select & set $ADL_right 0 & set $ADL_left

Sampler



Control the Master volume of the sampler using a knob (for controllers)
 sampler_volume_master 

Note: You can control the volume using two button, or keys, one for up, the other for down.
Script added from bigron1


Stop all the samples playing (for controllers or keyboard)
sampler_stop all

Script added from bigron1


Use a button to play a specific named sample (for controllers)
Button
 sampler_bank X & sampler_play_stop Y 

Button LED
 sampler_play Y on 

where X= the bank number or name.
and Y=the sample number or name.
Note: If you're on a different sample page the normal slot volume control won't work, and hence you need to provide a Master sampler volume control. Two buttons (one up, the other down), or one knob will do the trick.

Toggle between the Master , and headphone sampler outputs (for controllers)
It also lights a LED when the headphone output is selected
Button

Sweeping Actions

FADE Script
I want to put this script here that locodog helped me for FADER use.
The Fade plugin from v7 no longer works on V8 and V8 does not have one, this is a script that you can assign to a button to do just that.
repeat_start_instant 'levelSweep' 10ms 101 & level & param_smaller 1% ? stop & level 100% & repeat_stop 'levelSweep' : level -1%

Here is a modified version of the script (if you getting a bump/hump/click noise etc..) use this change/modified version.

repeat_start_instant 'levelSweep' 10ms 101 & level & param_smaller 1% ? stop & repeat_stop 'levelSweep' & stop & repeat_start "WaitTimer" 100ms 1 & level 100% : level -1% : nothing

Auto XF more like V7 (Button)
ONINT (add to the very end of your ONINT)
crossfader 0%  & set "$XFside" 1 & repeat_start "rsXFcheck" 2000ms & crossfader 0% ? set "$XFside" 1 : crossfader 100% ? set "$XFside" 2 : nothing

Button
cycle "$AutoXF" 2 & var_equal "$AutoXF" 1 ? var_equal "$XFside" 1 ? deck  Master  repeat_start_instant "rsiXF" 10ms 101 & crossfader +1% & crossfader 100% ? deck  Master  repeat_stop "rsiXF" & set "$XFside" 2 & set "$AutoXF" 0 : nothing : var_equal "$XFside" 2 ? deck  Master  repeat_start_instant "rsiXF" 10ms 101 & crossfader -1% & crossfader 0% ? deck  Master  repeat_stop "rsiXF" & set "$XFside" 1 & set "$AutoXF" 0 : nothing : nothing : deck  Master  repeat_stop "rsiXF"

This script is a 2 parter, ONINT monitors the XF position every 2 seconds, if the XF was last @ 0% the button press will send the XF from left to right, if the XF was last @ 100% the button press will send the XF right to left.
Pressing the button during action will stop the action.

Video



Set the LEFT and RIGHT video on DDJ-SZ per channel FX Selectors
with this script you can change the 1 and 2 buttons that are located on the top of each channel to act as a video selector.
This is useful when you have more than 2 videos playing, or want to HIDE the video without change the video level or change the volume levels.

to start, put this code in the ONINT (at the beginning): (optional)
deck 1 leftvideo & set '$lv' 1 & deck 2 rightvideo & set '$rv' 2 &

this will make the buttons light on and set the channels 1 and 2 as the default channels for left and right videos

Now, put the following code on the FX1_ASSIGN key into the mapper:
action_deck 1 ? var_equal '$lv' 1 ? on & leftvideo auto & set '$lv' 0 : off & deck 1 leftvideo & set '$lv' 1 : action_deck 2 ? var_equal '$lv' 2 ? on & leftvideo auto & set '$lv' 0 : off & deck 2 leftvideo & set '$lv' 2 : action_deck 3 ? var_equal '$lv' 3 ? on & leftvideo auto & set '$lv' 0 : off & deck 3 leftvideo & set '$lv' 3 : action_deck 4 ? var_equal '$lv' 4 ? on & leftvideo auto & set '$lv' 0 : off & deck 4 leftvideo & set '$lv' 4 : on & set '$lv' 0

This will make all the buttons marked with the number 1 as the LEFT VIDEO selectors. so if you wanna set the deck 3 as the LEFT VIDEO, you press the button on channel 3 marked with number 1 (at the top of the channel)

Now, put the following code on the FX2_ASSIGN Key into the mapper
action_deck 1 ? var_equal '$rv' 1 ? on & rightvideo auto & set '$rv' 0 : off & deck 1 rightvideo & set '$rv' 1 : action_deck 2 ? var_equal '$rv' 2 ? on & rightvideo auto & set '$rv' 0 : off & deck 2 rightvideo & set '$rv' 2 : action_deck 3 ? var_equal '$rv' 3 ? on & rightvideo auto & set '$rv' 0 : off & deck 3 rightvideo & set '$rv' 3 : action_deck 4 ? var_equal '$rv' 4 ? on & rightvideo auto & set '$rv' 0 : off & deck 4 rightvideo & set '$rv' 4 : on & set '$rv' 0

This will make all the buttons marked with the number 2 as the RIGHT VIDEO selectors. so if you wanna set the deck 1 as the RIGHT VIDEO, you press the button on channel 1 marked with number 2 (at the top of the channel)

Key and Loop control

I use this with my Hercules MK4

Use the Shift Button (hold down) to add extra functions to buttons.

shift while_pressed


Change the Key with the Pitch Knob while Shift is pressed

PITCH
shift ? param_multiply 1 & key_move : param_multiply 0.25% & pitch


Move the Loop 1 beat +/- with with the TRACK buttons while Shift is pressed


shift ? loop_move -1 : seek -4
shift' ? loop_move +1 : seek +4


Only if you want:
Let the SOURCE button LED blink when SHIFT ist held down
LED_SOURCE
shift ? blink 500ms : off
