Topic: Mapping to "clear deck"

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

It's been a while since I have been on but, thankfully, can now get back into this!
I have previously downloaded a mapper from my MC6000 that allowed me to press shift+CUE for a channel and that would clear the deck on virtual dj.. that is, remove the track that had been loaded. I found this handy.
I don't use that mapper anymore and am trying to map the "clear deck" feature myself. Despite countless efforts, I just can't get it to work.
Has anyone done this previously?

The command you are looking for is unload

Here is an example of how I have my load button mapped on my mixtrack. Pressing it loads the track and sets the key back to zero (I change the key for some karaoke singers). Holding it unloads the track.

holding 2000ms ? unload : load & deck active key 0

Thanks blckjck.
The other issue I have is when I try to use the "learn" facility. Basically I want the mapping to be SHIFT + CUE button will clear the deck. When I press "auto-learn" it only seems to recognise the shift button. Do I need to keep the "auto-learn" button held down or do you think I would press it, press SHIFT, press "auto-learn" again and then cue?
Thanks again mate!

I think the issue is that your trying to use the shift key from one device and the CUE on the controller.

Would the hold feature work for you on the CUE?

CUE
holding 2000ms ? unload : cue_stop


Then, if you hold the CUE button, it unloads the track on that deck.

EDIT:

I thought shift key on the keyboard, try this.
var "shift" ? unload : cue_stop
