Pad Modes
The 8 pads have different functions in each pad mode. The Parameter / buttons will make adjustments specific to each
pad mode.
To enter each pad mode, press the corresponding button: Hot Cue, Loop, Roll, or Slicer.
Hot Cue Mode
In Hot Cue Mode, you can use each pad to jump to an assigned hot cue point.
Tip: You can use the Engine DJ software to set, name, and assign colors to your hot cue points. The names and colors
will appear in the display for reference.
To assign a hot cue to a pad, press a dimly lit pad at the desired location in the track. The pad will light up when a hot
cue point is assigned.
To jump to a hot cue point, press the corresponding pad.
To clear a hot cue from a pad, press Shift and the desired pad. The pad will turn off when there is no hot cue point
assigned to it.
Loop Modes
In Manual Loop Mode, you can use each pad to activate an assigned loop. Pressing Loop for the first time will always
enter Manual Loop Mode.
Tip: You can use the Engine DJ software to set and name your loops. The names will appear in the display for reference.
To assign a loop to a pad and activate it, press a dimly lit pad to create a Loop In point at the current location, and
then press it again to create the Loop Out point at another location. You can also assign an auto loop to a pad by
pressing a dimly lit pad while in the auto loop. The loop will activate immediately, and the pad will light up.
To activate a loop, press the corresponding pad. Once a loop has been created, you can retrigger it by pressing the
corresponding pad again, depending on the Saved Loop Behavior setting.
To delete a loop, press Shift and the desired pad.
In Auto Loop Mode, you can use each pad to create and activate an auto loop. Pressing Loop while in Manual Loop
Mode will enter Auto Loop Mode.
To activate an auto loop, press a pad. The display will show the length of the auto loop for each pad.
To deactivate an auto loop, press the pad again.
Roll Mode
In Roll Mode, you can press and hold each pad to trigger a "loop roll" of a certain length while the track's timeline continues
(the lower half of the waveform in the display will continue moving forward). When you release the pad, the track will resume
normal playback from where it would have been if you had never done anything (i.e., as if the track had been playing forward
the whole time).
To trigger a roll, press the corresponding pad. Pads with triplet-based loop rolls are lit purple.
