Pioneer style Hot Cues and Saved Loops on the same Pad Page.
Hot-Cues are red. Saved Loops are Green. Buttons are labeled, but unfortunately we can't change names of the Loops.
Create an xml-file with the following code and save it here \Documents\VirtualDJ\Pads
In the pad-page-menu assign the name of your xml-file to the button you want.

Can't you just have Saved Loops show up in the hot cue page by just assigning the Saved Loop to a hotcue slot?

Nice, thanks! Need to tweak it a bit... change the " the quoted version and the ampersand as well.
Works now, almost like in rekordbox :-) Nice. Only difference in rb is the loop will play as long as you hold the pad. But that's not really an issue.
I also just changed all the long numbers to 1...8 then they also appear in the regular hotcue menu.

About this Mapping
This is a custom Pad Mapping for Pioneer inspired
Hot Cues and Loops that behave like Hot Cues.
HotCues and Saved Loops Slots 1-8 are being used.
Buttons display loop length in beats or hotcue position in minutes:seconds

Anyways fooled around until I got this, which works for my work flow. Most of the time, I cue the next track, find a good section for transition -> set a loop/beatmatch and then transition and maybe retrigger as needed.
So used to rekordbox, trying to recreate the behaviour, adapt VDJ to my muscle memory instead of other way round... too old to retrain haha :-)
pad : saved_loop 1 ? saved_loop 1 : loop_out ? hot_cue 1 ? hot_cue 1 : loop_save 1 : hot_cue 1

UPDATE
Changelog:
- LOOPS WORK EXACTLY LIKE HOTCUES NOW
- Buttons display loop length in beats or hotcue position in minutes:seconds
How to use:
- Press an empty pad to create a new hot cue
- Press an empty pad while in a loop to save the loop
- Press shift + empty pad to create a hotcue while in a loop
Settings:
hotcueMode: stutter
cueDisplay: position
loopAutoMove: no
savedLoopDisplay: length
How to install:
Create an xml-file with the following code and save it here \Documents\VirtualDJ\Pads
In the pad-page-menu assign the name of your xml-file to the button you want.

Great! Just checked it out... and that is pretty close, nice job. But.... if I have a loop running and hit a pad on rekordbox it will save the loop and trigger from the start of loop. You script will trigger it from the point the playhead is at. Which might be useful though...
Anyhow, I just started from scratch and have used this my last couple of sets and it works... (no text or fancy colors, just the bare-bones, hot cue and save a loop, from start, if a loop is active.
I don't set the loops/cues before hand, always do it live, in the moment, so no need for names... next set I'll set them somewhere else prob anyways.
pad : saved_loop 1 ? saved_loop 1 : loop_out ? hot_cue 1 ? hot_cue 1 : loop_save 1 : hot_cue 1
shift-pad : loop_delete 1 & delete_cue 1
color : hot_cue 1 ? cue_color 1 : saved_loop 1 ? color "green" : nothing

So I didn't check what @PhantomDeejay, posted, but the suggestion I had posted covers this - if you save a loop, then go to the POI editor and give it a hotcue slot, when you trigger that in future, it jumps to the loops start position and enables the loop (and also allows shift + pad hit = delete), which from what I recall, happens in Rekordbox.
There are only these cases which require you to use the Saved Loops pad page, which Rekordbox handles directly in the single page:
- If you need to save the loop initially
You have to either do it through the Saved Loop pad page or open the POI editor and hit New. Rekordbox detects that you are in an active loop and saves the Loop to the pad position. - If you want to make the loop active but not jump to its start
Rekordbox has a little active loop selector on pad buttons that holds loops (in the bottom right I believe) that allows you to set it as active without jumping to it's start (I think that setting persists between loads/unloads)

Yes indeed. Thing is I use the "CUESnLOOPS / Rekordbox style" live during sets, so don't have time to visit the POI.
It could all be automated under a button if the "type" of the POI can be set with VDJScript, but last time I tried I couldn't find a way.
In any case I made a simple version, it's responsive, not perfect, but does the job : i.e. set a loop, hit cue button and can trigger it as needed. And next time I load the song, I'll probably set it elsewhere anyways.

It is supposed to save/ recall the loop from it's start point. Did you apply the settings i mentioned above?
