Topic: Dedicated deck move action for DDJ REV 5 that respects the load security option
DJ6473PRO InfinityMember since 2023
I am using the pioneer DDJ REV 5. When I use the Deck Move button on my controller it will move the song to the selected deck and start playing even when I have another song playing on the selected deck and load security set to ON. Also when a security window does appear and I click cancel it still loads the song on the selected deck and proceeds to play the song on both decks. A dedicated deck move action that respects the load security option is needed.

Yeah it's a clone deck action, you press the button when you want to clone, the security is supposed to be covered by you deciding to press the button.

that's the script now
action_deck 1 ? deck 3 clone_from_deck right & deck right unload : action_deck 2 ? deck 4 clone_from_deck left & deck left unload : nothing

this is something you can check already
deck 3 is_audible ? true : false

I believe you may have misunderstood the issue I am having. I am not talking about "cloning" a deck, (an action that is achieved by double clicking the load button on my REV5 controller). I am talking about the deck "move" function which takes the track playing on deck 1 and "moves" it to deck 4, or deck 2 and moves it to deck 3. An action achieved by holding down the select button on the controller and pressing the corresponding load button. There is a security option that can be selected in the options menu that is supposed to prevent the track from playing if another song is currently playing on the selected deck.

That check is really for when you load a track from the browser section.
Moving tracks around on decks using things like clone deck or move deck or stems split is usually part of a routine, so speed is the most important part - not load security
Howeve you can probably add it to the script in the mapping by querying if the deck is currently playing. I don't know the exact move deck mapping for your specific controller, but it will.be something like:
Deck x play ? Y : nothing
... where x is the deck number and y is the current mapping

new action to move a Deck (and respecting Load Security) will be added in next release and default Mapping will be updated too.
