hi everyone just a quick question regarding pitch control using the hercules dj console. Wether i use the pitch sliders or the volume knob for changing the pitch of the song neither control can change it within 0.1 bpm so i cant use either control to change the pitch accurately. Is there a way to change this so the pitch slider is less sensitive or can i map the pitch bend buttons on the console to change the pitch up/down 0.1 at a time. I tried doing this with the console mapper but when u map the keyboard shortcut to it, the console changes the pitch for whichever deck you have selected in vdj and not according to which side of the console buttons you are pressing, please help does anyone have a solution to this??

The console buttons/knobs are fixed, there is no mapper,
like the xp10. I found the volume knobs most accurate
for fine tuning.
If you map keys from dj console using the console mapper
these keys will work together with the original function,
i dont see the point.
What you can do is to map keyboard shortcuts and assign
different keys for each deck, not the active one.
I use F9-F10 for deck1, F11-F12 for deck2.
