I don't know if you guys remember the "skip beat" feature in VDJ 5 but I would like to know if it's possible to do it in version 7 and if not is there a way to get the pro version of 5 from vdj? I have friend loves that feature for his chop n screw mixes...thanks in advance
p.s. I found a trial version of 5 but I would like the full version that I can use the serial with

Sorry, cant really remember about it.
Is it to jump 1 or more beat forward or back ?
You could do this with goto +1 or whatever - "-1" "+4".......

it was listed under keyboard shortcuts as skip beat....

"goto +4" - as Heiko said will give you the same result.

I never remembered this feature. I could see where it would be quite useful.

That is exactly what I was thinking.

"goto +4" "goto -4" "goto +1" "goto -1"is the action that i believe and Heiko, directly replaces skip_beat.
Program it as a keyboard shortcut and see if it does what you remember.

my question is how? since the newer version I haven't attempted to program any shortcuts. If you would be so kind as to explain how to do this it would be much appreciated.

Go to config -> mappers -> select keyboard mapper form the dropdown box -> press the little green + on the bottom left side of the window.
Press "key learn" button -> press the key you would like to map
Right next to the key learn button the name of your pressed key should now be displayed. e.g "B" or sth.
Right under this textfield is another, labeld "action"
Write this action into that field and then press "ok" or "apply" (not sure how the button on this window is labled)
Action:
+2 indicates to jump/ or skip 2 beats forward. -2 would be 2 beats backwards from the current position.
you could also use 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64 ...

this feature is awesome an you can jump around I use it when im lost or comming back from the can.. push a button back 64. then I have time to load something else.

I thought the fast forward and reverse buttons jumped beats in blocks of 4 by pressing them either way, is that not the case?
