(a) Time information
In its center, the platter shows:
- The current position = how far playback is from the track’s start = here, at 0:53.
- The remaining time = how for playback is from the track’s end = here, at 4:02.
The platter shows, via its concentric circles, how long the track lasts (if it doesn’t exceed 6:00).
Each blue concentric circle represents 1 minute, so we see here 4 complete circles, plus 1 circle
ending at 0:55, which makes a total length of 4:55 for the track.
For tracks over 6:00, the full track length is scaled to the 6 concentric circles (for example, on a 60:00
track, each concentric circle would count for 10:00).
(b) Loop
The active loop is a pink area on the concentric circles. From its position on the first circle, we can see
that the loop starts at 0:48 and finishes at 0:52.
(c) Cue points
The cue points are the red dots displayed on the ring of small blue dots around the platter.
As the 360° ring around the platter represents the full length of the track (4:55), we can see that:
- Cue Point number 1, close to the start, is in the first seconds of the track.
- Cue Point number 2 is located at slightly over 1/5 of the track, so at around 1 minute.
- Cue Point number 3 is located at around ¾ of the track, so close to 3:17.
(3) Commands
The platter area helps you to process 3 commands with your mouse:
- Drag and drop a track on the deck: drag a track from the browser and drop it on the platter to
load the track on the deck.
- Drag and drop on the sampler: drag a loop (pink area) from the platter and drop it on one of
the sample players to load the loop in the sampler.
- Browse within the track: click on one of the small blue dots on the ring around the platter to
instantly access this position within the track.
Note: you cannot scratch in the DJUCED platter area. To scratch with your mouse (without using the
controller’s jog wheel), you must left-click on the waveform, keep the mouse button pressed down, and
move the mouse.
