Performance Pads
The performance pads have four different modes you can select. The four modes
are; SLICE, SMPL, CUE and LOOP.
• SLICE Mode: A specied Slicer range (or domain) is divided into eight equal
sections, and these eight sliced sections are assigned to the respective
performance pads. Pressing SLICE once for the rst mode, is a shifting Slicer
Domain. Pressing SLICE twice, for the second mode is a xed Slicer Domain
or “slicer loop”.
• SMPL Mode: Pads 1-6 Trigger Samples loaded in your Sample Banks. Press
and hold SMPL for 1 second or more to activate Sampler Velocity mode.
Triggering the pads will play the loaded samples acording to the velocity to
which the pads are struck. Holding SHIFT while pressing a pad will load the
highlighted track in the library to that associated sample slot.
• CUE Mode: When pressing pads 1-8 you can add up to 8 Cue Points.
Holding SHIFT and pressing pads 1-8 will delete the Cue Points.
• LOOP Mode: Pressing LOOP once for the rst mode, is Manual Looping.
Pressing LOOP twice for the second mode enables Loop Roll Mode. Pressing
pads 1-8 will enable a loop roll for the time the pad is pressed, the loop will
exit once the pad is released. See the looping table for more infomation.
The SMPL, CUE and LOOP modes are able to be activated together in Dual
Mode. You can enable Dual Mode, by pressing two of these Performance Mode
buttons at the same time. This splits the 8 performance pads into two lots of 4,
allowing you to control two modes on the 8 pads.
For example: If you press CUE + LOOP Performance Mode buttons together, the
top 4 performance pads will act as Hot Cues, and the bottom 4 pads will act as
the rst 4 Loop slots. This allows you the versitility of having two performance
modes active at the same time.

Looping
You have up to 8 loops per track in Serato DJ, and the choice between
either manual or auto loops. You can choose whether you have 4 loops (and
4 cuepoints) showing on screen, or 8 loops. To switch between Manual and
Auto looping, click (Manual) or (Auto) onscreen. You can also
half or double the loop length in either manual or auto modes. Press the
1/2X button onscreen to half the loop length, hold the 2X button to double
the loop length, or you can use the Loop Size knob on the controller to do
the same.
Pad 7 Turn selected Loop on and off 8 Bar Loop Roll
Pad 8 Select next loop slot 16 Bar Loop Roll
NOTE: The best way to edit the in and out points of a manual loop is with
the jog wheel/platter on your Reloop Terminal Mix 4.
NOTE: You can also save a loop to the next available free loop slot in the
software. To do this, either click the button in the manual/auto loop tab
or click on an available loop slot. Your loops are saved to the le and
recalled the next time it is loaded. They are not lost if the le is moved or
renamed.
