Hi and welcome.
- The database is a very useful tool. You just have to type a few letters and all your tracks containing these letters appear. Then you can drag the one you want.
- It's not possible for the software to know which track you want from a named artist.
- Then you can also use shortcuts to load the song.
(Excuse me if I'm wrong but english is not my first language)
Tell me if my answer is enough for you.
You'll se it's an amazing software.
Clax

I map my "J" key on my keyboard so it functions like pressing "J" in winamp. When you press J in winamp it pops up a window and you just start typing letters of the song/artist/album you looking for. When you type enough letters it narrows down to the right song. Either that or you can type a few letters then start scrolling through the results. Either way it's very fast! At any time using the program I can press "ESC" in case I was already in a half finished search, then press jtoss and instantly "2 Pac - Toss It Up" is listed in the database search window. You can also map a key to have this song added to the playlist I believe. I personally don't use playlists cuz the songs seem to disapear from there after you play them, then when you try to load them on the other deck to do some beat juggling, the song is gone. There should also be a feature to copy the song on the other deck to this deck quickly but that's another topic for another forum. You shouldn't post feature requests here, so I won't.
