6/16 – User Manual
6. Jog wheel: By default, scrolls back and forth through the track and can also be used for
scratching (see #7. Tune/scratch button, below). Can also be set to control pitch (see #5.
Pitch button, above).
7. Tune/scratch button: In tuning mode by default. Press this button to toggle back and forth
between tuning and scratch modes (“Scratch” appears on the top line of the screen in the
latter mode; the jog wheel can be used to scratch the track as you would with a vinyl record).
8. Play/pause button: Play or pause the track loaded on that deck. The button turns green when
a track is being played on the deck in question.
9. Deck A Info button: Displays information about the track loaded on deck A. You can press
this button to exit Library mode.
10. Music button: Press this button to access your music library in the Hercules Mobile DJ Mix
software. Browse by genre and artist.
11. Playlist button: Press this button to access playlists you’ve created in the Hercules Mobile DJ
Mix software.
12. Automix button: Press this button to toggle continuous automatic mixing on or off. When
enabled, the software will automatically mix the current list, using beat-matching where
possible.
13. Hold Jogs button: Press this button to turn the hold function on both jog wheels on or off.
This can be useful if you want to avoid accidentally moving a jog wheel and inadvertently
skipping through a track that’s being played.
14. Library button: Press this button to access an explorer for your computer as well as your
library in the Hercules Mobile DJ Mix software.
15. Deck B Info button: Displays information about the track loaded on deck B. You can press
this button to exit Library mode.
16. Crossfader: Slide the crossfader to the left or right to increase the volume of deck A or deck B
in the mix, respectively.
After using an Automix function, the first thing you must do if you want to regain
control of the music is check that the physical position of crossfader on your Mobile DJ MP3
fits with the position of the crossfader in the software mix; otherwise, you may completely
miss the transition by not using the right position for the crossfader on your Mobile DJ MP3
(as the Automix function moves the crossfader in the mix, but not on the controller itself).
17. CUE button: Press this button to jump to the first beat of the track; or, if you have already set
one or more cue points in the Hercules Mobile DJ Mix software, simply press this button to
jump to the selected cue point (you can set up to three different cue points). There is an
AutoCue function by default, so that tracks start automatically on the first beat, instead of at
the start of the music. Please see chapter 6.10. Setting cue points for more information.
