    Default Give me idea

    Hey guys! I am using my akai lpd8 and denon dns1200 for controlling traktor, and on the last gig I figured out that I'm using only the endless rotary knob for browsing and the jog for searching through songs.

    Now I need idea how to search through songs without jog?
    How all the guys using kontrol x1 or anything else without jog do it?

    Beat jumping by one or two phrases (16/32 beats). Super useful, can even be done while the track is playing in a seamless manner.

    Personally I just move the needle.

    Beat Jumps and deck seek.

    First one I mapped on my MIDIfighter, the second used to be under an endless rotary.

    I do use a beat jump, but if I want to mix in some acapellas or samples, and they usually aren't beat grided.
    Is there a function to map so it could make a scrolling or small steps by holding a button or so?

    just throw a random bpm value over every track. It may not allow you to use the beat jump live but you can still use it while cueing and you don't have to waste any additional buttons or knobs since you will already have beat jump matched.

    (Try 'Deck Seek')
