Switching from Record, Hardware, SP-6, Record directly from the 57

Hi everyone. I finally picked up the 57, and I'm still learning its many many many features. I tried searching for this question, but I was unable to find anything. What I was wondering is, are you able to assign a button/knob on the "hardware" section of the mixer, so that you are able to switch between Record, Hardware, SP-6, DJ-FX, etc?

So, instead of me using my laptop to switch between Hardware and DJ-FX, I would use the mixer.

Thanks!!

i don't think you can do that, not every button is mappable.

you may be better off using a kontrol X1 or similar and midi mapping those controls........

Hey mixology,

Press the Group button on your 57.
At that point you will see all the B buttons flashing.
From there, move the J1 knob up to open the Hardware panel, move it to the right to open the SP6, and move it down to open the Prepare tab.
You can't currently open the DJFX or Record tab though.

Sweet! I just tried it. I can't wait for you to be able to scroll over to the DJFX tab - that would be awesome! Thanks Zach!
