Topic: EQ kills mapped but no visual indication they are ON/OFF

Hi I have fallen for WDJ8 and the default skin (there's probably better but I like it).

I have mapped EQ kills to keys but when I use them there is no visual indication of what is on or off. Can this be enabled on the skin? If I right click the EQ knobs then they reduce to 0% both visually and audibly but if i use my mapped keys then only the audio changes.

Try this: that one is for eq_high

eq_high 0% ? eq_high 50% : eq_high 0%

If that doesn't work, try this:

eq_high 0% ? eq_high 50% : eq_high 0% & eq_kill_high

ok ive assigned the following to the kill keys:

deck 1 eq_high 0% ? eq_high 50% : eq_high 0% & eq_kill_high
deck 1 eq_med 0% ? eq_med 50% : eq_med 0% & eq_kill_med
deck 1 eq_low 0% ? eq_low 50% : eq_low 0% & eq_kill_low
(same for deck 2)

works great but now i have press twice to get the EQ kill off - press once its killed, press again the eq knob returns to 0& visually but audio stays killed, have to press two more times to get the audio back to normal

any thoughts?

It is pretty poor there's no visual (nor a way to eq kill via the mouse)

AFAIK, you can temporarily kill EQs by rightclicking on the EQ knob with the mouse.
But that means you have to keep pressing the mousebutton.

Not quite, right click toggles 0%, 50%, but it isn't while pressed.

I've brought back the v7 click label = eq kill & added a visual

Something like this, but you'll need to learn a bit of skinning before it makes sense.

<group name="knobb" x="+0" y="+57">
<panel class="knobb">
<slider action="eq_high" dblclick="eq_high 50%" rightclick="eq_high 0% ? eq_high 50% : eq_high 0%" tooltip="EQ HIGH"/>
<slider action="eq_high" dblclick="eq_high 50%" rightclick="eq_high 0% ? eq_high 50% : eq_high 0%" tooltip="EQ HIGH" frommiddle="true"/>
<textzone leftclick="eq_kill_high">
<text format="HIGH"/>
</textzone>
</panel>
<visual source="eq_kill_high" type="onoff">
<pos x="+0" y="+42"/>
<size width="8" height="8"/>
<on x="1336" y="2700"/>
<off x="1336" y="2710"/>
</visual>
</group>

Did clicking the labels kill EQ in VDJ 7? I didn't know that!

I do think it's a cool idea to have some hidden clickable areas in a skin that only you know about though.

I think the EQ labels in ver 7 skin were just visuals , not buttons, but yes they were offering the info you wanted.
Maybe added.. will make a note to the Team.
