PADS - TRANSPORT


While the Hot Cue mode is selected, press the same CUES mode button again to set the PADs to Transport mode (led will blink). The Pads section of the default VirtualDJ GUI on the corresponding deck will be also set to a special Transport pad page.
The Transport mode is selected by default on first launch (for all decks) and offers 4 HotCues and transport deck controls


Transport mode - AFX


Each one of the 4 pads at the top row assigns a Hot Cue Point (1 to 4) or returns the track to that Hot Cue Point.
When a Hot Cue Button is unlit, you can assign a Hot Cue Point by pressing it at the desired point in your track. Once it is assigned, the Hot Cue Button will light up. The color that the LED will get, depends on the nonColoredPOI setting of VIrtualDJ. By default, the LEDs will get the color of the deck (blue for deck 1, red for deck 2 etc)

Use the 1st Pad of the bottom row to play-pause the track. Hold SHIFT down and then use the same pad to play the track in reverse.

When the Deck is paused, you can set a Temporary Cue Point by moving the Platter to place the Audio Pointer at the desired location and then pressing this pad.
During playback, you can press the Cue Pad to return the track to this Cue Point. (If you did not set a Cue Point, then it will return to the beginning of the track.).
