PADS - HOTCUES


Press the CUES mode button to set the PADs to HotCue mode. The PADS section of the default VirtualDJ GUI will be automatically set to the Hotcues page.



Each one of the 8 pads assigns a Hot Cue Point (1 to 8) or jumps the track to that Hot Cue Point if assigned.
When a Hot Cue Button is unlit (empty), 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)

Hold SHIFT and then press any of the pads to delete its assigned Hot Cue Point.
