I'm a bedroom DJ

Looking to toggle through the pads (hot cues, loop, loop roll, etc) with a button on my controller but for the life of me I can't figure out the script. Any help would be appreciated.

The basic action to select a PAd page is
pad_page 'TheNameOfThePadsPage'

So you can use...
pad_page 'hotcues'
to select the Hotcues page..
pad_page 'loop roll'
to select the Loop Roll page.. etc

If you want to cycle through some specific pages, you need to query current and then choose what happens.
E.g. cycle through Hotcues, Loop, Loop Rolls...
pad_page 'hotcues' ? pad_page 'loop' : pad_page 'loop' ? pad_page 'Loop Roll' : pad_page 'hotcues'

or ... cycle through Hotcues, Loop, Loop Rolls and Effects (as i can see from your pic)...
pad_page 'hotcues' ? pad_page 'loop' : pad_page 'loop' ? pad_page 'Loop Roll' : pad_page 'Loop Roll' ? pad_page 'effects' : pad_page 'hotcues'


Now if you use the "Favorite" Pages, and you want to have a script to cycle though your 4 favorite ones, and always work no matter which ones are set as favorites, you can use ..
pad_page_favorite 1 ? pad_page_favorite 2 : pad_page_favorite 2 ? pad_page_favorite 3 : pad_page_favorite 3 ? pad_page_favorite 4 : pad_page_favorite 1
