The Mix Dj Pro Ultimate 4 Deck Version skin featuring cues, effects, loops, play/pause, scratchwaves, clone deck, eject, stop, fast foward/rewind, eq, video pannel, and scratch pannel, just like the Mix Dj Pro Final Version (for those who don't know it, look up Mix Dj Pro 1 in the vdj skins site.) This will be available WHEN FINISHED (still under development).

@tearemup what do you mean by brightness? Im ready for critizism, this way i can improve on my skin before releasing it.

And someone show me how to do the new rhythmzone thing? I really need it for my skin. All i know is that its is somehow associated with pannels.
 

Posted Thu 09 Dec 10 @ 10:37 pm
He's talkin about your choice of colors you used for the skin. Its kinda like staring into the sun, lol!! Orange and Yellow are nice colors but dang not for the whole skin. As far as the rhythm waves go I don't think there an easy way to explain it, well atleast I can't.

Nice skin so far though, other then the colors. Keep it up.

maybe if you added a bright-dimmer/fader...he,he...

Can people stop talking about the brightness and talk about features instead? So far i have a clone deck button, an eject button, a stop button, a play/pause, search, beatlock, and sync buttons. I also have loops ranging from 1/4 to 128 beats. I have six cues, each with the time remaining to reach those cues. I have a key slider, an effects button with text and effects select, plus the two effects sliders. I have a full eq, volume meter and slider, automix, crossfader and master volume. I have 12 sample buttons. I am planning to add a video pannel as soon as i finish my fourth deck, and a scratch pannel with timecode active buttons and meter and four scratchwaves which are also available above the song position. Any other ideas?
P.S. Should i remove that "WARNING DJ IN ACTION" thing?

O.k. about the "warning" thing...hint...take a Look at what DjDad puts on his waveforms area..that kind of warning..

OK so here is my update on the skin. everything is FULLY functional EXCEPT the leftcross and rightcross buttons. I cant seem to decipher any VDJ script code which could work with this. So any help would be appreciated. This is all i need my mixer. I am currently working on the video pannel, and the scratch pannel is on it's way. MORE CRITICISM PLEASE. I want this to be ACTUALLY USEFUL, and not just a "i made this because i got bored" skin. The video pannel will have all 4 channels' eqs and gains, plus volumes and vumeters, adn of couse, video screens for all 4 channels and the master video. It will have a video fader, crossfader, plus link for both. The scratch pannel will have all 4 scratch waves vertically, timecode active for all 4 decks, plus timecode meters, timecode modes (absolute, relative, smart), and MAYBE i can fit a full eq with volume and vumeter in there. Any other things one dj might consider useful which i don't have? And help with left/right cross buttons? Also once i get info on left/right cross buttons, who would be willing to beta test the skin with mixer functionality only? (That means no timecode or video support)

Here is the update

Go to configurations,open the midi mapper,type in left & right button,you should see a command like "Browser" something and try that.cant check right now,dont have the system set up.

ya i went to the mapper shortcuts thing, AND I FOUND SO MUCH MORE SYNTAXES. Only problem, i cant make a masterdeck, OR leftcross and rightcross buttons. I have tried action="deck 1 leftcross" and also action="leftcross" deck="1" and action="leftcross" chan="1", and none seem to work. I tried the same for masterdeck and no luck. Here are my syntaxes for leftcross, and rightcorss buttons, and masterdeck. Where did i go wrong? (the buttoins work as buttons, but have no action to do, but they do show up)

<button action="deck 1 masterdeck" >
<size width="64" height="21"/>

<down x="544" y="1097"/>
</button>

also, BIG changes to the mixer. i managed to fit in the video screens and im trying to figure out how i can fit in the timecode buttons, with modes and timecode meter so that it is symmetrical. i think the meters should go to the bottom and buttons in between the video screens.

this is just great, i switched version="4" to version="7" to get my masterdeck button and leftcross and rightcross buttons working (they now do) and now most buttons which were assigned to a channel are now just assigned to any channel, so i have alot of channel assigning to do, so im gonna be real busy.
 

Posted Tue 28 Dec 10 @ 10:18 am
oops! you did'nt know? v.7 its a totally new xml code...
 

Posted Tue 28 Dec 10 @ 11:59 pm
@thetracker510 i know that, you see skin creation was inspired to me by the Mix Station SV_04, which is a version 4 skin (great skin btw) so i never thought about that Version="4" thing. i got the first deck running again, and i am working on re-assigning the channels to the rest of the decks, the skin sould be out at latest on new years day (my new years present to vdj lol). But i got this, version 7 code is much simpler, working this is dull though.

good luck on that! but I've ecountered new # with a + & a - in them,usually for position that make no sence...
