Simply add deck 1 or deck 2 in front of the action, e.g:
deck 1 effect "flanger" active

that's the wrong verb... you want "deck left hot_cue 4". "
leftdeck" assigns the deck to the left side if your using more than 2 decks, then you can make things happen only on the left deck ignoring the other, eg. if deck 1 is assigned to "leftdeck" if you map "deck left action" deck 3 is ignored, but if deck 3 is assigned to "leftdeck" deck 1 is ignored.

yep, that's just
"effect 'effect name' active"
eg
"effect 'flanjet' active"
or if you want momentary action use "while_pressed" eg.
"effect 'rollit2' active while_pressed"
or if you want some automation
effect 'crusher' slider 1 0% & effect 'crusher' active while_pressed & repeat 20ms & effect 'crusher' slider 1 +1%
you can substitute 'crusher' for any other effect, use multiple sliders etc...
The first slider is the brake time, you can adjust it manually on the skin or script it to something eg
effect 'brake' slider 1 30%
"effect 'effect name' active"
eg
"effect 'flanjet' active"
or if you want momentary action use "while_pressed" eg.
"effect 'rollit2' active while_pressed"
or if you want some automation
effect 'crusher' slider 1 0% & effect 'crusher' active while_pressed & repeat 20ms & effect 'crusher' slider 1 +1%
