Feature request- Needle search lock.

Proggieus 6:46 AM - 3 November, 2012

I wish needle search had the option to be locked on a playing deck, it is far to easy to bump or brush while accessing effects.

I can see its usefulness while cueing up a song, but a can't see ever using it while the track is playing.

Even better would be have to have it locked if deck is playing and fader for that deck is >0

I'd cosign that

Yep, I've already accidentally bumped the needle strip when using the effects several times, messing up my mixes. It's very sensitive.

I suggest Shift+needle strip if you want to use it.

Ya that sucks on the vci-380 you have to hold shift to use it.

yeah I've accidentally hit the needle search on my v7s when using their controls to navigate the itch library, it'd be great to be able to toggle it on or off

Ya I've hit it a few times and so has my boy on his. They need a lock button

Makes sense, the CDJ works that way.

You can use iTunes to just play songs, this would be way down my list of features.

Damn iPhone moved me back a page, ignore my post.

I think with CDJ you have to hold down the platter & touch the strip

on itch and my S1, this behaviour is like CDJs. hold platter + needle search.

so +1 if not in SDJ

That would really suck. that would be like djing from those sony turntables with the motorized tone arm where the top have to be closed for the record to play.

I never hit by accident on my ns7

I've already accidentally hit the needle search a few times while using the effects.

We just need an option in the Setup to lock the needle search during playback.
