Pads
The 4 numbered Pads of the Numark PartyMix Pro offer different functionality, depending on the selected Mode. Use the PAD MODES button to cycle through the 4 available modes (Hotcues, Loops , Sampler and Effects).
HOTCUES
The unit will initialize with the Hotcues mode selected. To select the Hotcues mode - if another is selected - use the PAD MODES button until the first top Led ( Cue ) is lit.
The Hotcues page will be then selected and displayed in both the tailored and the default skins of VirtualDJ
In this mode the 4 numbered Pads assign a Hotcue (1-4) or trigger the Hotcue (if assigned). To delete an assigned Hotcue, right-click on the Hotcue button on the skin.
Loops
Use the PAD MODES button until the second from top Led ( Loop ) is lit to set the Pads to Loop mode. The special PM Loop page will be then selected and displayed in both the tailored and the default skins of VirtualDJ
Note : The special PM Loop page is only available when the PartyMix Pro is connected
In this mode, the 4 numbered Pads trigger an auto- Loop of a different size in beats, depending on the selected Loop Bank.
3 different Banks are available (Small, Normal and Large) offering Loop sizes from 1/8 to 64 beats. Use the arrow buttons on the Skin to select the next/previous Loop bank
SAMPLER
Use the PAD MODES button until the bottom Led (SAMPLE) is lit to set the Pads to Sampler mode. The Sampler page will be then selected and displayed in both the tailored and the default skins of VirtualDJ
In this mode, the 4 numbered Pads will trigger a Sample (1-4) from the selected Sampler Bank of VirtualDJ.
If the selected Bank has less than 5 samples, both sides of the Party Mix will trigger the same Samples. If the selected Bank has more than 4 Samples, the left side of the PartyMix Pro will trigger samples 1 to 4 and the right side will trigger samples 5 to 8. Samples further to slot 8 can be triggered from the Sampler view of Sideview, either by selecting a different Sampler Layout view or the List view.
