PADS
The 4 numbered Pads of the Numark DJ2GO2 offer different functionality, depending on the selected Mode. Use the PAD MODE button to cycle through the 4 available modes (Hotcues, Auto Loops, Manual Loop and Sampler).
HOTCUES
The unit will initialize with the Hotcues mode selected. To select the Hotcues mode - if another is selected - use the PAD MODE button until the first Led (CUE) is lit.
The Hotcues page will be then selected and displayed in the VirtualDJ GUI
In this mode the 4 numbered Pads assign a Hotcue (1-4) or trigger the Hotcue (if assigned). Hotcues further to 4 can be triggered from the GUI.
To delete an assigned Hotcue, hold down the PAD MODE button and then use one of the 4 Pads.
AUTO LOOPS
Use the PAD MODE button until the second Led (LOOP) is lit to set the Pads to Loop mode. The special GO Loop page will be then selected and displayed in the VirtualDJ GUI
Note : The special GO Loop page is only available when the DJ2GO2 is connected
In this mode, the 4 numbered Pads trigger an auto-Loop of a different size in beats, depending on the selected Loop Bank.
3 different Banks are available (Small, Normal and Large) offering loop sizes from 1/8 to 64 beats. Use the arrow buttons on the Skin to select the next/previous Loop bank
MANUAL LOOPS
Use the PAD MODE button until the 3rd Led (MANUAL) is lit to set the Pads to Manual Loop mode. The special GO Manual Loop page will be then selected and displayed in the VirtualDJ GUI
Note : The special GO Manual Loop page is only available when the DJ2GO2 is connected
In this mode, the 4 numbered Pads trigger actions as following:
- Pad 1(Loop In) : When not in Loop, sets the current track's position as the beginning of the Loop. When in Loop, jumps track back to the beginning of the loop
- Pad 2(Loop Out) : When not in Loop, sets the track in loop, starting from the last set Loop In point. When in Loop, exits the Loop
- Pad 3(Loop) : Triggers an Auto Loop of the selected size in beats. Exits the Loop if in loop. The beats size can be selected from the VirtualDJ GUI
- Pad 4(Reloop) : If not in loop, enables the last triggered Loop (and jumps to its beginning). If no Loop is triggered before, the pad will not execute any action. If in Loop, will jump to its beginning
SAMPLER
Use the PAD MODE button until the 4th Led (SAMPLE) is lit to set the Pads to Sampler mode. The Sampler page will be then selected and displayed in the VirtualDJ GUI
In this mode, the 4 numbered Pads will trigger a Sample (1-4) from the selected Sampler Bank of VirtualDJ.
If the selected Bank has less than 5 samples, both sides of the DJ2GO2 will trigger the same Samples. If the selected Bank has more than 4 Samples, the left side of the DJ2GO2 will trigger samples 1 to 4 and the right side will trigger samples 5 to 8. Samples further to slot 8 can be triggered from the Sampler view of Sideview, either by selecting a different Sampler Layout view or the List view.
See further details about Sampler in VirtualDJ User Guide http://www.virtualdj.com/manuals/virtualdj8/interface/browser/sideview/sampler/index.html
Use the arrow buttons on the skin, to select a different Sampler Bank or choose a different Trigger mode (On/Off, Hold, Stutter or Unmute).
