Topic: Triggering Samples from an External Controller or the Keyboard
Hi ... Using Virtual DJ 2023.

In one of my Sample Banks I have some 32 Samples loaded. I can trigger them with a Mouse.

However, I'd like to be able to trigger them with:
a) The Laptop Keyboard
b) An External Pad Controller

Is this possible? How to go aboout this?

On a side-note ... If I want to check my previous posts in this forum, how do I search for posts made by me?

Thanks!

It's definitely possible. Check out this thread for an example
https://www.virtualdj.com/forums/257229/VirtualDJ_Technical_Support/Shift_function.html?search=sampler+mapping&page=1.55
or search the forums for sampler mapping examples.

Also, take a look at the official hardware manuals

perhaps the pad controller you have is already supported, or perhaps you can opt for a supported one.
