Hi all,
Has anyone mapped or know how to use instant doubles (clone deck) on the DDJ-SX2 itself? I know there is a button on the skin to clone decks but thought it would be easier to be able to do it on the controller. Maybe a script to change the the function of holding the load button from unload to clone deck?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Details: OSX 10.12.1, VDJ 8.2 b3514

Try this code to the LOAD button, a quick double tap [within 400ms] will clone the deck, a single tap will load the deck but it will be delayed by 400ms
var 'double' ? set 'double' 0 & repeat_stop 'myrep' & device_side 'left' ? deck left clone_deck right : deck right clone_deck left : set 'double' 1 & repeat_start 'myrep' 400ms 1 & load & set 'double' 0

Thanks Locodog but that didn't work and actually crashed VDJ.

very peculiar, it's djdads script and it works here..... except I don't think device side query is working.... most odd

Try this in it's place
var 'hwmixer' ? nothing : holding ? unload : var 'double' ? set 'double' 0 & repeat_stop 'myrep' & action_deck 1 ? deck left clone_deck right : deck right clone_deck left : set 'double' 1 & repeat_start 'myrep' 400ms 1 & load & set 'double' 0

Oh right the SX2 is 4 decks
var 'hwmixer' ? nothing : holding ? unload : var 'double' ? set 'double' 0 & repeat_stop 'myrep' & action_deck 1 ? deck 1 clone_deck right : action_deck 2 ? deck 2 clone_deck left : action_deck 3 ? deck 3 clone_deck right : action_deck 4 ? deck 4 clone_deck left : set 'double' 1 & repeat_start 'myrep' 400ms 1 & load & set 'double' 0

Getting Closer! The first script works to clone the deck but then when I try changing to another song and hit the load button it stops the other track from continuing to play. The second script kills all my load buttons...

^ those will kill the loading function,
try this
var 'hwmixer' ? nothing : var 'double' ? set 'double' 0 & repeat_stop 'myrep' & action_deck 1 ? deck left clone_deck right : deck right clone_deck left : set 'double' 1 & repeat_start 'myrep' 400ms 1 & load & set 'double' 0
also this, spotted an error 3 script
var 'hwmixer' ? nothing : var 'double' ? set 'double' 0 & repeat_stop 'myrep' & action_deck 1 ? deck 1 clone_deck right : action_deck 2 ? deck 2 clone_deck left : action_deck 3 ? deck 3 clone_deck right : action_deck 4 ? deck 4 clone_deck left : nothing : set 'double' 1 & repeat_start 'myrep' 400ms 1 & load & set 'double' 0

they both work the first time but when you try and load a song back on the first deck it stops the second one from playing. I'll try and record a video of what it does.

Here's a link to a couple videos I posted with your script locodog and another from George Bekris. Both work fine the first time but stop both decks the second time:

no videos there,
there is a long standing bug, it could be the cause... do you keep slip mode on?

Almost identical.
But it works fine here on a DDJ-RZ!
var 'hwmixer' ? nothing : var 'double' ? set 'double' 0 & repeat_stop 'dblclick' & action_deck 1 ? deck 1 clone_deck right : action_deck 2 ? deck 2 clone_deck left : action_deck 3 ? deck 3 clone_deck right : action_deck 4 ? deck 4 clone_deck left : nothing : set 'double' 1 & repeat_start 'dblclick' 300ms 1 & set 'double' 0 & load
PS: @Locodog
Since you are providing a lot of scripts on users that use variables and repeats:
Try to create "unique" names for your vars and repeat names. It's quite possible a user that uses 2 or 3 scripts of yours has already a 'myrep' repeat running from another advanced script. You realize that this will cause a clash. And you shouldn't really expect users to "rename" their vars and names. They mostly just copy/paste what script it's given to them.
I don't know if that's the case here. But it's something I notice on the scripts you share and that you should be aware of. Keep up the good work! :)

Will do, this one was based on djdad's, from c++ I'd feel dirty calling a var "double"
double double;
eugh,
double double;
eugh,

LOL. It's a forbidden name in C++ anyway... :P
In order to give out on a user perhaps it would be better to rename like this:
var 'doubleclickwait' ? set 'doubleclickwait' 0 & repeat_stop 'dblclickcheck' & action_deck 1 ? deck 1 clone_deck right : action_deck 2 ? deck 2 clone_deck left : action_deck 3 ? deck 3 clone_deck right : action_deck 4 ? deck 4 clone_deck left : nothing : set 'doubleclickwait' 1 & repeat_start 'dblclickcheck' 300ms 1 & set 'doubleclickwait' 0 & load
At least with names like this a user that wants to understand what's going on it's easier to do so... :P

Hey guys,
I appreciate all the help but each of these scripts keep doing the same thing: stopping the track after the second clone attempt. Would something simple like clone active deck work with a double click or even just clone active deck by holding down the load button? I really don't need to unload a deck by holding down the load button.
Also, sorry for the video. I guess Facebook deleted the videos for copyright reasons...

Why put them on Facebook? Seems an odd choice when YouTube is there, and made for video.

I was getting help from George on the vdj facebook page too. Anyways, here's the links on YouTube:

Watching your 2nd video shows deck 2 clone to deck 1.
To clone deck 1 you should double tap the load button of deck 1
