Secret / Hidden / Easter Egg features of DJ Controllers and Software

[Cusp]

I thought it would be interesting to see what kind of hidden / secret / easter egg options were available with DJ controllers and/or software.

I know the Novation Twitch can go into "Advanced Mode" by pressing (and holding) the Browse button in, and then simultaneously press the "Close" and "Open" buttons.

I also know that Serato ITCH can display by tapping in the (morse) code "K I N G", and you can "Whitelabel" songs by clicking on the BPM and typing in AM, but I'm curious to see what other hidden / secret options are available on other controllers and other software.

What others can we come up with?

CMD MM1: press and hold down four CUE buttons together to toggle between two brightness levels.

Oh god I wish I could find the post but years ago on here I mentioned that there was a secret Space Invaders game hidden in Traktor and I made a fake pic of Space Invaders on my Traktor screen.

It hooked someone in. Wish I could find it.

Most NI controllers have a 'Vegas Mode'.
The Vestax VCI-100SE had a 'disco mode' IIRC.

Most production/mixing controllers have a vegas mode as well. It's the "woah" version of all their test modes that help you find faults (burned out lights, motors, etc.).

Avid D-Command:
NI X1 + F1:

I can't find a video of the S8's vegas mode, but it's pretty cool in person.

Wait, is there Vegas mode on the X1 Mk1?

Hmm, I dunno. I lent my X1's out so I can't check. I only have an X1 MK2 here.

The comments on the youtube clip say

flux+sync + shitf + the arrows between the shift.. when you plug your controller

and this comment was elsewhere on this forum:

X1 has no flux or arrows near the shift button

Yeah, those were for the mk2. A quick search didn't turn anything up for the X1 mk1, and I don't remember it being in the manual.
