1st of thanks nik39 for the videos...
watching the short one i was wondering does anyone know if you can control the loop function with the mixer (like the cue points) or just with a foot pedal?
and what about the faders? do they use the same as in the 56?
thanks°

You can control the loops with the mixer. Trigger them, choose the loop, adjust in/out point. Dont know whether you can protect a loop or not.

Yep, line+xfader are magnetical.

why use a footpedal if you can control the loop function on the mixer?

Why use the mixer if you can control the loop function with the mouse? Cause its more convinient. Same would go for the footpedal, for some its better I assume. *shrug*

well, the loop function is a big feature that i look forward too, but i wasn't lookin forward to setting up a footpedal, so its a good thing that i can use this function on the mixer itself.

So that you can make loops with one hand on the record and one on the fader. . . ie scratching! ;)

Yes

You mean setting autoloops like snapping the loop to the beginning of a beat? If you do, the answer is no. There was no added new function in the version I tried out.

Have you ever tried to beat juggle? LOL Turntabalism is by definition all about cordination! Plus with a foot switch controled loop pedal you can make an entire beat from scratch noises. . .
