These are the 3 major things we have been asking for since 1.8.

• 1 Step to set a Hot Cue. If you see an empty Hot Cue on the HC4500 function buttons, hit it once to create a Hot Cue. VERY SIMPLE and INSTANT HOT CUES. With the old way, you had to hit memo, wait for the lights to flash so you don’t accidentally erase a Hot Cue, hit an empty Hot Cue, then hit the memo button again. You can still create/delete Hot Cues using this method.

To enable this, go to:
1. Setup
2. Playback
3. CHECK enable hot cues

- Triggering a cue point when a cue point is not set now sets the cue point.
- Assigning cues to empty cue slots without using the ctrl shortcut is now an option called ‘enable hot cues’ in the playback tab on the setup screen. The default setting is off.

• MIDI assign the 3 effect buttons on each side of the HC4500. Now you can have a 1 button auto loop, next/previous loops, Loop Rolls, Sample play etc.

- The unused effect buttons on the Pioneer CDJ-400, Denon HC-4500 and HD-2500 controllers are now MIDI assignable.

• Change from ±8% to ±16% by holding down the Key button. Quickly hitting the Key button still turns Off/On the Key Lock.

- The Denon DN-2500 Pitch/Key button will now toggle the slider range when held for more than 1 sec. An ordinary button press will toggle key lock.

Other Fixes:
- Fixed a problem with the Denon DN-HC4500 Display not refreshing properly when going from CD mode into Native control mode.

- The Scratch LIVE GUI now runs smoother when in MIDI assign mode.
