No Vinyl Mode Button on the DDJ-400? No Problem! - DDJ 400 Vinyl Mode Tutorial

Музыка

Many DJ's don't like using vinyl mode on their jog wheels. Preferring to use the CDJ mode to allow touching the top of the jog wheels without scratching or stopping the track. However the DDJ-400 doesn't have the button to toggle between the modes. In this tutorial, we are going to show you two methods to reinstate this control either by using your computers keyboard or by MIDI mapping the controller.

    Bro but if you use shift + loop in , you don´t lose any features!! Same for Shift + "Beat Jump", which there are 6 spare slots. For example I use "shift + loop in" for loop in and "shift + loop out" for slip mode. Its great!! :)

    Thank you. 🙏 Team DDJ-400 😁 … I revisited this video to change the Shift-Delete-Memory Cue… but in order to add a Quantize button to each deck (instead of the Vinyl option explained in this video). 👍

    Great tip! Thanks. I'm going to try the midi mapping option. I love my 400 and was thinking of upgrading to the DDJ 800 and but I see no reason to leave my 400. (Outside of the jog display of the 800) It does everything I need.

    Few weeks ago the deck 2 of my DDJ400 was no longer in vinyl mode. At first i couldn't figure out what was wrong, than noticed the blue ring was gone on deck 2. Found out the reason, but couldn't find the default key to change it and dived in the hotkey configurations to set up this exact feature. Must know tip for RB user imo.

    Thanks for this! Since we're on the DDJ-400 Midi mapping topic - I've been wondering and maybe you would know... is there a way to use the Beat FX Level / Depth Knob and on/off button using FILTER as a Sound Color FX rather than on selected beat intervals so you can use the button to activate and deactivate the Sound Color Filter like on Pioneer's club mixers and all-in-ones? I hope you all are staying safe and healthy, cheers.

    I need help with the settings of my Rekordbox and hope that someone can help me :) Although the vinyl mode is activated (blue circle around the BPM), the "scratching" (finger movement) or song stop (when holding the finger on it and not moving) unfortunately does not always work. Often it reacts as if I turn the turntable sideways (song becomes faster/slower). I only have this problem on the left side of the DDJ400 controller. I strongly suspect it is due to a setting. Please help me and sorry for my bad english!
