Colby, could you add few command to CDJ automation interface :
1. list_command_up
moves up in currently selected list, like pressing up_arrow key from
keyboard
2. list_command_down
moves down in currently selected list, like pressing down_arrow key
from keyboard
3. jump_next_window
rotates focus to next (visible) window in CDJ
Alsums->Tracks->Playlist->Details->Players->Albums
4. add_to_playlist <I THINK this allready exist>
This allows one to have ALMOST complete control over CDJ with IR remote
control =
(for example with "egg" one of those simple tv remotes with 6 keys in
compass config [up,down,left,right, centre=select, power])
You could browse albums / track & add them to playlist with IR remote
controller
-------------------
up = up in list
down = down in list
left = vol down
right = vol up
select = add_to_playlist - command
power = jump to next window (albums <-> tracks)
---------------------
Pleeeeeaaaaase, pretty please.
I don't think this should be too hard to do ; automation interfacce
command that triggers moving to next / prior in list that currently has
focus. And move focus to next window, you could also tie that action to
TAB key. 6-button remote controller is all they can handle.
I had party last weekend and again noticed that CDJ interface is still
too complicated for casual users.
I'll promise I will not ask anything else for a LOOOOng time, well I try
.... ;)
I have finally got over losing the "Play now" and getting used to pass
everything through the playlist. With Clear_playlist & randomplay it
functions quite nicely.
