In Response To: Re: Next and Prior Track via Automation (Barry Gordon)

Barry- Again, this depends on what you are trying to accomplish. If you just want to move up (or down) the list of tracks in a playlist, then yes, "playlist_next" and "playlist_prev" will move you thus. If you want to move to the next track on a CD (say, you were listening to "YMCA", the next song in the playlist is "Can't Touch This," but you really want to listen to the next Village People song, "Macho Man"), you can set up a button or keypress that would query CDJ to get the current CD and track #, have the program stop the playlist, and then play the track you want, after which the program can restart the playlist. You could also have your program insert the desired track into the playlist after the current song. Whichever floats your boat.

BTW, I don't think either solution really helps you if the current item on the playlist is a CD, rather than a track. But I'm sure others can fill in where I falter...

Cheers, John
