Cue Points allow you to mark a particular position in a song. Once you have set a cue point you can jump to it at any time. This can be used for example to mark the start or end point of a song, or to mark other parts of a song that you want to be able to access quickly, e.g. the first downbeat.
Cue Points are also a very powerful DJing tool. You can set up to three cue points and use the keyboard shortcuts to quickly jump from one point to the next, a common DJing practice also known as "Beat Juggling".
Using Cue Points
-
Open the Cue Points in the tools section.
-
Press one of the "Set" buttons to set a cue point. The cue point will also be visually marked on the vinyl.
-
Press the "Jump" button below the selected "Set" button to jump to the cue point.
Cue points are also accessible using intuitive keyboard shortcuts. Please see the Table-1/Table-2 menus for a list of these shortcuts.
Resetting saved Cue Points
When you set a cue point or start/stop point, djay automatically saves it for you. Upon loading the song again, the cue points and start/stop points you set before will be automatically restored.
To reset and remove all cue points for a song:
-
Select Cue Points > Reset Cue Points from the Table-1 or Table-2 menu to reset cue points and start/stop points.
