Thanks a lot! I still struggle a bit to map, lets say. Button one of effect 2 for example to my midi device. It should be easy. But it just doesnt work

On the VDJ forum, I asked:

"Pre-set speeds ("pitch") for multiple songs in playlist / automix ?
I'm not trying to create a playlist where all the BPMs are similar.
I'm trying to create a playlist where (simplified) song 1 plays 5% slower than its recorded speed, song 2 plays 10% slower than its recorded speed, song 3 plays at its recorded speed, etc.
Can that be done? If so, how?"

2 days later there is one answer:

"I'd probably relay_play, use a tag to hold a pitch value and use onsongload to first query if relay is on, then read the tag and set the pitch."

Following your video I changed my view to Pro, clicked a custom button, named it "playlist changed speeds", entered "relay_play"... and I'm stuck.

Should the "onsongload" test come before "relay_play"?

By "tag" do you think he means global value? So I need to tell VDJ that "-10%" means -10%?

How would I put the script all together?

Let's say my playlist is 30 songs long, and the first 10 songs play at their recorded speed, then song 11 I want at 5% slower than recorded, song 12 at 10% slower than recorded, song 13-30 at their recorded speed. I read somewhere that if relay_play ends its contents it will start automix. So I suppose I could have songs 13-30 in the automix. Do I really need to add each of songs 1-10 into a script just so I can get songs 11 and 12 to play at a different speed?

Help! Thanks!

Hey DJ LaFave, good stuff, I am a software developer and my question to you is, could I midi map a pad on my controller to use 2 fx's and a sampler explosion giving my transition a better sound

[keith]

Man i got to go and get a degree to work in VDJ trying to set midi controls

[denniswally]

I need vdj scripts to controll eq_low deck 1 and deck 2 with crossfader left and right

[Khabibul]

This is great in terms of showing what VirtualDJ can do, so thumbs up for that. However, why not use practical examples that people could theoretically use instead of ones that you say "sound terrible"?

If it's not useful people will just think it's a nerdy tool that's totally impractical and forget about it; doubly so for people coming from Rekordbox, Serato, or Traktor.

if you can help me with the loop disappearing it would be great. (ex... cue one is looped on intro . when i hit cue 2 and play ill go back to the cue 1 for the loop for a mix go back loop is no longer engaged) has to be a script or setting but I cant figure it out.

[juniorgarcia]

i wonder what am i missing but the first thing you did, i did to my software and its not responding.
not doing anyhting. i called it fade and put fadeout and i click the button but doesnt even light up like yours and doesnt do any fading out. lost
