The DJ's Feature Request Thread
tunetyme:
I've posted several things on this subject before over the years.
Overall MC does a great job. I am primarily music only oriented but I can see moving into video now that storage is so cheap. For me, I would like to see more tools for creating playlists. A dual turntable setup would be helpful so you could work out the mix by "tailing" the last 20 - 30 seconds of a song and the start of the next song to "try it on" and decide if it fits in the mix.
It would be nice if there was some flexibility on each transition on how you mix the two. Beat mix, 2 second delay, or no delay what ever you decide works for you. Let all this be stored in a separate M3U file that may also have some gain adjustments as a part of the mix.
Another feature that would be nice is to be able to identify the key the music is played in. Here is a site that might be of interest: http://www.mixedinkey.com/HowTo.aspx.

I'd like to be able to use something like an Ergodex DX1 (or a Belkin Nostromo, etc) to build up a custom button pattern as well as a few sliders to control MC.

You may be right Craft. The solution may be to have 2 systems, MC as a database manager and seperate DJ software.

It may be futile, but we're paying customers and if we want something we should ask for it. It doesn't mean that our voice is the priority - yet. But I think if there are a sufficient number of us, and we're all in the same place asking for the same things, that our voice might be heard. Especially since DJs tend to be pretty influential with others. I know that there are several people using MC because of my recommendation, and I'm using it because of someone else's recommendation.
The best thing there is to do right now, I think is get everyone who's looking for DJ features to post here.
