I have been using VDJ pro version for several months now. Overall, it's a great program, and the main thing I am having a problem with is the following:
Is there any way of accessing the video effects more directly than going through all the menus and sub-menus? I have been playing with the keyboard shortcuts, and I have created several shortcuts to make my life easier. But I just cannot find a shortcut to make any of my video effects directly assignable. I do only mobile work - not clubs. So specifically, I have created 15 different clipbanks that I use frequently during different parts of my show (I use the old clipbank version). Are there any other mobile guys out there that know how to do this? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I have been asking this question for several months with no answers. I’m not sure what the development team is thinking on this issue. But I had suggested being able to directly access clipbanks using keyboard shortcuts (I have 12 clipbanks myself, so maybe the F1 – F12 keys for each of the 12 clipbanks). See my original post on this:

Anyway, I agree that it should be possible to assign a shortcut to go straight to an activated effect.
Maybe there is some technical reason that it cannot be done?

Gerry I am too lookin for a direct route to a single clip. I too run the old style clipbank and have 10 different banks of 12, your idea would be a great addition.

Currently, you can create a shortcut to display a pop-up list of all available video effects. But that does not do you any good because you cannot select from that list; it's only for displaying your choices. But maybe that shortcut (I think it's video_effect) can be modified to select & activate a specific effect?

Since v5.0.7:
Use:
* effect_slot_select(value)
* effect_slot_activate(value)
where value is a slot between 1 and 10
It means that you can save 10 slots of audio effects for each deck with a direct access to them. It saves in the Windows registry (DSPSlot1_x and DSPSlot2_x) so you don't have to select your effects each time you start VirtualDJ.
For example: slot 3
A°) Selection
1) effect_slot_select(3)
2) It opens the selector menu
3) Select you a plugin
B°) Activation
effect_slot_activate(3)
Use:
* effect_slot_select(value)
* effect_slot_activate(value)
where value is a slot between 1 and 10

Oh I will try that. I currently use 5.06, but I understand that 5.07 had some problems with the Hercules? Does this shortcut not work in 5.06?

The Hercules issues were resolved by Hercules when they released their new drivers.

This selection is for the AUDIO effects - not the video effects such as clipbanks.
I looked under the video section, and there's a shortcut called VIDEO_SELECT_FX.
However, as I said before... this seems to only bring up a pop-up list of available effects - not the actual clipbank.
I will continue to try to find a way to do this....

Yes - same problem here. I couldn't get that to work for clipbanks. I wish I could find a shortcut to make any of my banks directly assignable. It's funny that there are so many shortcuts you can create in VDJ, yet the obvious one here that I would use all the time does not seem possible.
Any plans to make this happen in a future rev?

I concur. I think it would be amazing to be able to assign the clipbank "cubes" to the pads on my trigger finger or any other midi controller.

Maybe there could be shortcuts created such as:
display_video_effect (value)
activate_video_effect (value)
deactivate_all_videoeffects
Ultimately, the goal should be to display and and activate a full clipbank with one key. Then the user could manually decide which clip to go live with.
I hope this can be included sometime soon...?

I hope so! Using these shortcuts as macros would definitely make life easier...
