Topic: Denon HC4500 Questions

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hey guys,
Im new to this whole MIDI thing and I'm a bit lost.
I'm looking to figure out how (if its possible) to assign effects to my 3 effects buttons. I had some luck on this (effect 1 active, effect 2 active and effect 3 active) but doing that got the first 3 fx in the list going. I want to program my 3 buttons to do flanger and two others that are lower on the list how do i get this to work? Also, Is there way to make it so the jog wheel will search through the song normally (no scratching or pitch bending) I'm used to an HD2500 and would like to get my HC4500 as close to that HD2500 as possible.

Thanks!

you were close, but if you want a specific effect for a specific button you need to name the effect in the script eg
effect "flanger" active

for the jog, map a button or key to "vinyl_mode" this will change the jog sensitivity for being suitable for scratching or pitch bending, and you can adjust the sensitivity for both settings in the config -> options menu

Sorry I read that wrong... to search through the song you can use

param_greater 50% ? deck 1 goto 4 : deck 1 goto -4

the #4 can be changed for anything you like

if you want a shift button to activate it use this...

shift button
set 'fastjog' while_pressed

jog
var 'fastjog' ? param_greater 50% ? deck 1 goto 4 : deck 1 goto -4 : param_greater 50% ? deck 1 jogwheel +0.05 : deck 1 jogwheel -0.05

just thought of something better...

use the fast rewind button to activate the jog for browser scrolling, but if scrolling browser load the deck by pressing the fast forward button. however if you only press the fast forward button you activate the jog for browser scroll

fast rewind shift button
set 'browsejog' while_pressed

fast forward shift button

var 'browsejog' ? deck 1 load : set 'fastjog' while_pressed

jog
var 'browsejog' ? param_greater 50% ? browser_scroll +1 : browser_scroll -1 : var 'fastjog' ? param_greater 50% ? deck 1 goto 4 : deck 1 goto -4 : param_greater 50% ? deck 1 jogwheel +0.05 : deck 1 jogwheel -0.05
