Topic: Rewind or Fast Forward Hold Button?
Hi all, on my last controller and software I had the most CLUTCH feature where I could hold rewind or fast forward.

Is there any way to set buttons to do that on Virtual DJ? Using a Rane FOUR

Thank you. First time I'm seeing this manual. The VDJ group on facebook didn't accept me for some reason

Appreciate your help
 

I believe you are looking for is:

wheel_mode 'search' 

This setting makes the jogwheels skip forward and backward much faster while the deck is paused and by 4 beats at a time while the deck is playing.

[Edit] Apologies. Upon rereading the original post I see you were looking for buttons that do this and not via the jogwheels. Perhaps 'beatjump' is more of what you were after.
 

The correct script is "seek"
'beatjump' or 'goto' execute their action only once
"Seek" on the other hand keeps jumping as long as you hold the button down.
So, seek +4 and seek -4 are the two actions best suited for this task.

Also, Rane Four has a beatjump function built in on the default mapper, and you can also adjust the jump length, which is also visible inside the jog.
