Topic: Creating a "shift" button???

Dieses Thema ist veraltet und kann veraltete oder falsche Informationen enthalten.

is there a way to designate an unused button as a "shift" button?

i have a DJM 900 and have an unused cue button i want to set as a shift key in the mapper so i can have more flexibility with the mixer/controller. any one willing to help me with this??? thanks

Yeah, just go into VDJ mappers click the Key-learn button, then click the button you want to assign on your controller, then write the script you need to use, your Done...

Good Luck,

Joey...
 
what would the script be for assigning a shift button?
 
if you aren't using the djm to control vdj a shift button won't work as everything in the djm900 is hardwired. If you are using the djm to control software you really shouldnt as you are bypassing all the expensive pioneer circutry that cost a lot of money to buy. That said to map a shift that only works on "soft" controls put this on the shift button

set '$shift' while_pressed

then for anything you want shifted use this

var '$shift' ? action if shifted : action if not shifted

eg

var '$shift' ? load : play
 
how would i map a knob to be used as a browser knob for tracks while the \"shift\" button is held?
 
sorry for the late reply, I forgot all about it

shift button
set '$shift' while_pressed

knob
var '$shift' ? param_greater 50% ? browser_scroll +1 : browser_scroll -1 : nothing

the red bit at the end is the unshifted action, I assume because you are using a pioneer mixer you will want to use the onboard effects, so won't want the knob to do anything in vdj when the shift button isn't pressed... unfortunately you probably can't stop the knob from changing the hardware parameters of the selected effect while the shift button is pressed.
