4.3 Using the Cue/Sample Trigger Buttons
The Cue/Sample Trigger buttons (1 to 4 on each side of the Z2) make it possible for you to set
and delete cue points and loops, trigger Sample Slots (in Remix Decks) and BeatJump through
your tracks.
For a detailed overview of these buttons' functions, refer to ↑5.4.5, Cue/Sample Trigger
Section (1, 2, 3, 4).
4.3.1 Changing Deck Focus For The Cue/Sample Trigger Buttons
The default focus of the Cue/Sample Trigger buttons is Deck A on the left side and Deck B on
the right side. But you can change the Deck focus from A to C or from B to D by pressing the
corresponding Deck Focus button.
To change the focus of the Cue/Sample Trigger buttons:
►
Press a Deck Focus button (A or C, and B or D) to change the focus of the Cue/Sample
Trigger buttons.
4.3.2 Working with Cue Points
When loading a track which has no stored loops or cue points for the first time, the first
cue point will be set to the beginning of the track automatically. This is a quick way to re-
cue a track to the beginning right from the Z2. You can always delete this default cue point
and set the first cue point somewhere else in the track by pressing SHIFT + Cue/Sample
Trigger button 1.
To set a cue point at the current playback position:
1. Set the Deck focus on the Z2 to the Deck containing the track where you want to set your
cue point (see also ↑4.3.1, Changing Deck Focus For The Cue/Sample Trigger Buttons).
2. Push an empty (not illuminated) Cue/Sample Trigger button (1 to 4). Buttons on the left
of the Z2 control Decks A or C (depending on the Deck focus you have set) and the but-
tons on the right control Decks B or D (also depending on the Deck focus). The button
lights up blue to indicate that a cue point is stored there.
