- From Rekordbox to a CDJ USB and tips for first time CDJ users
First time on CDJ's take this into account:
- There is no "single" CDJ, make sure you format your USB drive according to the CDJ's specifications. When in doubt stick to 32Gb FAT.
- Some CDJ's only have 3 hotcues, some have more
- The track always starts to play when pressing a hotcue even if the track is paused, this is very different behavior from the gated cues on controllers
- Mimmic gated cue behavior (as on controllers) by loading a memory cue and using the CUE button (above the Play button).
- Verify the CDJ is in "vinyl" mode
