Pads
Pads (39) offer 8 different modes, depending on the PAD MODE SEL buttons (38). Press the same PAD MODE button again to access the additional mode (the LED will blink in this case).
Each time a mode is selected, a Page will be selected and displayed on the Pads section of the default VirtualDJ skin
Use the PARAMETER -/+ buttons (40) to adjust the Parameter 1 (if available) of the selected Pads page
Hold SHIFT down and then use the PARAMETER -/+ buttons (40) to adjust the Parameter 2 (if available) of the selected Pads page
HotCues mode
Press the HOTCUE mode button to set the Pads to HotCue mode (LED will be turned on). The Hotues page will be then selected and displayed on the Pads section of the VirtualDJ skin
Each one of the 8 Pads assigns a Hot Cue Point (1 to 8) or returns the track to that Hot Cue Point.
When a Hot Cue Button is unlit, you can assign a Hot Cue Point by pressing it at the desired point in your track. Once it is assigned, the Hot Cue Button will light up.
Hold SHIFT and then press any of the Pads to delete its assigned Hot Cue Point.
Use the PARAMETER - and + buttons (40) to jump to the next or previous HotCue.
Hold SHIFT down and then use the PARAMETER -/+buttons to jump the track forward/backwards by 1 beat
Note: By default Hotcues will get the color of the deck (blue for deck 1, red for deck 2, green for deck 3 and orange for deck 4). A different coloring behavior can be offered via the NonColoredPOI setting (from VirtualDJ Settings OPTIONS tab).
Cue-Loop mode
Press the HOTCUE Mode button twice (or once if the selected mode was HotCues) to set the Pads to HotCue Loop mode (the led of the button will flash). The CueLoop page will be then displayed on the Pads section of VirtualDJ skin
Each one of the 8 Pads assigns a Hot Cue Point or returns the track to that Hot Cue Point, but in both cases, it also triggers a momentary or toggle Loop depending on the selected mode.
The currently selected length will be used for the triggered Loop
Hold SHIFT down and then press a pad to jump to the Hot Cue Point but leave the Loop enabled.
Use the PARAMETER - and + buttons (40) to half and double the size of the applied Loop.
Hold SHIFT down and then use the PARAMETER -/+ buttons to select the On/Off (toggle) or Hold (loop will be enabled while the Pad is pressed) mode
Loop Roll mode
Press the LOOP ROLL mode button to set the Pads to Loop Roll mode (LED will be turned on). The LOOP ROLL page will be then selected and displayed in the Pads section of the default VirtualDJ skins.
Each one of the 8 Pad triggers a momentary Loop Roll (while pressed) of a different length in beats as per the images above.
In this mode the PARAMETER (40) buttons have no functionality.
Saved Loops mode
Press the LOOP ROLL Mode button twice (or once if the selected mode was Loop Roll) to set the Pads to Saved Loops mode (the led of the ROLL button will flash). The Saved Loops page will be then selected and displayed in the Pads section of the VirtualDJ skins.
This mode offers the ability to save up to 8 Loops to individual Loop Slots.
Press any Pad to save the current Loop at the current track’s position (of the selected size in beats) to the relative slot. Hold the same Pad down for more than 1 second to delete the Saved Loop.
When a Loop slot is saved, press the corresponding Pad to load (prepare) the Saved Loop.
If the track’s position is before the Saved Loop point, the loop will be enabled but the track will not jump to that position (Prepare status). Use the same Pad to disable the Loop.
Hold SHIFT down and then press one of the lower Pads to load the Saved Loop, but also jump to that position.
Use the PARAMETER - and +(40) buttons to half and double the size of the triggered Loop.
Hold SHIFT down and then use the PARAMETER buttons to move the Loop forward/backwards by 1 beat
Sampler mode
Press the Sampler mode button to set the Pads to Sampler mode (LED will be turned on). The Sampler Page will be then selected and displayed in the Pads section of the VirtualDJ default skins
Each one of the 8 Pads triggers a sample (1 to 8) from the selected Sampler Bank of VirtualDJ. If the selected Sampler Bank has less than 9 samples, both sides of the unit will trigger the same Samples. If the selected Sampler Bank has more than 8 samples, the left side of the unit will trigger Samples 1 to 8 and the right side of the unit will trigger Samples 9 too 16.
The leds of the Pads will automatically get the assigned color of each sample (dark when off, bright when playing).
Press the Pads to trigger a sample. Depending on the selected trigger mode, use SHIFT and the same Pads to stop the sample.
Use the PARAMETER - and + buttons (40) to select the previous and next Sampler Bank.
Hold SHIFT down and then use the same PARAMETERS buttons to select the previous/next Trigger Pad mode (on/off, hold, stutter, and unmute)
Key - HotCue mode
Press the Sampler Mode button twice (or once if the selected mode was Sampler ) to set the Pads to Key-Cue mode (the led of the Sampler button will flash). The KeyCue page will be then selected and displayed in the Pads section of the VirtualDJ skins.
In this mode, the Pads trigger a selected Hotcue point (or the Temporary Cue if none selected or not available) at a selected Key semitone (from -7 to +7).
8 different pages/banks are offered with various semitone values to use and a 0 value (reset key to tis original value) is always offered in all pages.
Hold SHIFT and then select a Hotcue for the Key Pads to trigger. Each time a Pad is pressed, the track will jump to that Hotcue point and will also alter the Key of the track to the value designated by it assigned value.
Use PARAMETER buttons -/+ to adjust the Key of the track without trigger a Hotcue.
Hold SHIFT and then use the PARAMETER buttons to select a different page/bank with different key semitone values.
Slicer mode
Press the SLICER mode button to set the Pads to Slicer mode (LED will be turned on).The Slicer Page will be then selected and displayed in the Pads section of VirtualDJ skin.
The eight Pads represent eight sequential beats/Slices in the Beat Grid. The playing Slice is represented by the currently green lit pad. The green light will "move through the Pads " as it progresses through each eight-Slice phrase. Press a pad to repeat that Slice (hold it down if you want to keep looping it). Once the Pad is released the track will continue to play from the position it would have been if the pad was never pressed.
Hold SHIFT button down and then use the same Pads to use the Slicer in Hold mode. In this mode, the slices are memorized (using the last triggered ones)
Use the PARAMETER - and + buttons (40) to adjust the length of the Loop applied to the slice. Press SHIFT and then use the same PARAMETERS - and + buttons to adjust the step of the Slices.
Beatjump mode
While the Slicer mode is selected, press the same SLICER mode button again to set the Pads to Beat Jump mode (led will blink). The BeatJump page will be then selected and displayed on the Pads section of the VirtualDJ skin
In this mode, each one of the Pads will jump the track backwards/forward by the amount of beats depending on the selected page/bank (from 1/8 beats to 32 bars)
Use the PARAMETER < > buttons to select a different bank/page with the desired size of beat jumps
Velocity mode
The Reloop Mixon4 offers both momentary and After-touch Velocity for the Pads .
The velocity can be turned on/off by holding the Sampler mode button for about 3 seconds. The LEDs of the Pads will momentary light up red, when velocity is turned off and will blink in green color 4 times when the velocity is turned on.
Velocity is turned on/off per Deck, meaning that a Deck can have velocity turned on while another can have it turned off.
In the factory default Mapping , the extra velocity keys, are only used in the Sampler mode, assigned to control the volume of each sample, but those can also be customized and assigned in all available modes.
When velocity is enabled, in Sampler mode each one of the 8 Pads triggers a sample (1 to 8) from the selected Sampler Bank of VirtualDJ, with the difference that the Output Volume of each sample is determined by the strength the Pad was initially pressed.
When the After-touch velocity is enabled, it overrides the momentary velocity and the volume of the sample is constantly controlled by the applied pressure on the Pad. The volume of the sample will go to zero once the Pad is released.
After-touch velocity can be turned on/off using SHIFT +DECK SELECT button (on by default)
