Would like to see the ability to have a video sample that would automatically toggle the video ON when pressed and then back OFF at it's end. To me the whole purpose of a sampler is to immediately "play" a sample and a video sample that only automatically plays the audio is lacking. Could be a check box when in the editor as you can now select the audio and/or video. Thanks

As a new user to VDJ, I was a hard core Traktor user and sometimes Serato.
One thing I like a whole lot is the way Traktor has "Remix decks".
It acts like a play deck, you can adjust volume etc. ... on each remix channel and you can, like a regular deck, pre-listen and then up fader if you want to pull it in.
Some features I really love on that :

Some features I really love on that :
You can have "one-shot" sounds sync (I haven't figured out how to do that in the sampler unless I record a full bar and then save it as such after)
You have easy access to basics like Sync, Loop, One Shot etc. ...
You can see the wave form (handy to see when you want to start it quick and eye ball if the phrase starts at the right place
Easy to edit on the fly directly on the deck
What I don't like and where VDJ is coming on top
You don't seize control of an entire deck since it seems to live in it's own world (unless you channel it to a deck)
Have more flexibility on where the sound goes (great!)
Using an AKAI APC Mini (or similar controller in conjunction) gives way more possibilities
The wish:
Make the sampler an actual deck where all the standard controls of a normal deck are present by default (vol, eq, pre-listen, effect...)
With items like a AKAI APC, get each volume fader to act like an actual volume fader for each channel of the sampler and the master of the sampler deck on the master volume fader of the APC (it would make pre-listen mixing a whole lot better)
Have a one-shot sync option for those samples that actually have just one shot in the sound (like a single cymbal, or kick)

This has been requested many times (often by me!). It would be so much more versatile.
VDJ can use up to 99 decks, so in theory there are plenty of slots, and some folks have made skins using lots of mini decks. The flaw is that decks don't have all the functionality of sampler slots.

There's literally nothing the sampler can do that a deck can't, some stuff is tricky but very possible
I've actually eye'd up a remix decks project, I've got the mechanics for most of the key features worked out in my head, I just can't find the willing to make a skin, maybe if/when the pioneer v10 gets support we might see a default 6 deck skin and I might find some motivation

Yup, I agree. Just putting it back out there.
