ok i have to cdj1000's. sometimes i like to use multiple cue points in one song during a mix. the cdjs have cuepoints a b and c but i find it difficult to set a cue point on the fly while using the cdjs. I find it much easier to use the mouse to click a cue point on the laptop and if needed continue to click the mouse to give it the stutter effect. The only thing is I DONT want to be using the computer all that much unless its to load a song. My question is if i get a controller such as the total control from numark would i be able to use it for my cue points and still mix with my external mixer? and if yes, how would i go about connecting everything to do that? and What other things would i be able to do with the controller if it does work? (btw i only have a 2 channel mixer, im assuming i would need atleast a 3-channel). Thank u guys in advance for ur input.

with that controller you will be able to control everything on the screen, including your cue points. The Total Control is not a soundcard so you can still use your ex mixer in the same configuration.

As posted before, it's just a controller. It connects using USB to you PC. There is no connecting it to your mixer. It will provide you with the ability to control certain settings of the VV interface. Watch some of these vids - http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Total+Control+Numark&search_type=

Hi djchu, don't rush.
You can use your 2 channels external mixer with some control, I use Hercules MK2 like that. You will select "External Mixer" in VDJ and that's it. I suggest new Hercules RMX console, it has all you need and you can map it to use Cue points.

Yes, but it is natively supported.so mapping is not needed.

ok so basically i would have my cdjs and mixer goin into the vv box, a usb connection goin into my laptop and another usb connection from my laptop goin into total control. and with that i can use my timecodes while using total control to control things like my cue points and maybe the effects?
