Had the passing thought today that it would be sweet if you could just press a button to double or halve the bpm, to quickly and consistently jump between genres!
Even a +/- 10 and 20 button would be sick! or a designated set of buttons dedicated to 70, 80, 90, 110 and so on bpms.
I am aware you can set the tempo fader to wide and move quickly but knowing where to stop exactly without looking and the lack of precision makes me want a way to make dramatic shifts consistently.
I don't use sync currently but know it's an effective way to link tracks and be able to just shift them dramatically together but buttons would be instant.
also a double or halftime button would be a sick effect since it could stay on beat.
does this already exist on controllers and just not my old xdj?
are there tricks for doing rapid bpm jumps consistently? I guess a half bar loop is kinda like a doubling, I know people use 3/4 loops to jump up to drum n bass.
