One feature I liked when I used to have my Numark CDX's was the "Scratch+Cue" feature. Whenever you scratched the platter the song would jump back to the last set cue point. It came in handy for doing super fast beat juggles etc. Is it possible to use VDJ's mapper to create some sort of keyboard shortcut that would activate such a "Scratch+Cue" function? In other words, whenever the track is scratched VDJ recognizes the scratch and jumps back to the set cue point. I'm thinking it's not possible, but I'd thought I'd give it a shot. BTW, I'm using Numark TTXs (vinyl). If there is a way to map this I would greatly appreciate someone letting me know how. Thanks.

JOG = action_deck active ? touchwheel_touch : goto_cue 1
(choose which cue ''number'' you want to go back to)
Hope it does work.

That didn't work, the "=" was giving me a syntax error.

Try mapping the touch sensor to:
touchwheel_touch & down ? nothing : vinyl_mode ? goto_cue : nothing
This should go back to the last used cue point when the jogwheel is released, providing the jogwheel is in vinyl (scratch) mode.
Or if you want to be able to toggle it on/off:
touchwheel_touch & down ? nothing : vinyl_mode ? var %scratchcue ? goto_cue : nothing : nothing
And map a button to:
toggle %scratchcue
touchwheel_touch & down ? nothing : vinyl_mode ? goto_cue : nothing
This should go back to the last used cue point when the jogwheel is released, providing the jogwheel is in vinyl (scratch) mode.

lol
Go to config, mappers, you should see JOG in the left box, select it.
in the ACTION BOX type:
action_deck active ? touchwheel_touch : goto_cue 1

Just re-read the first post - If you are using timecode, then this is not possible, unless the CD player you are using has this function.
The above is only possible with a MIDI controller with a touch sensitive platter.
