Add a "Mix template" wizard capability:
templates to be saved/recalled and to be used on the fly or by AutoDJ
The template concept should work on at least 2 tracks (TrackA and TrackB) where the user can specify:
TrackA_Interval_Start, TrackA_Interval_Stop
TrackB_Interval_Start, TrackB_Interval_Stop
TrackA_Interval_Start_Volume (%)
TrackA_Interval_Stop_Volume (%)
TrackB_Interval_Start_Volume (%)
TrackB_Interval_Stop_Volume (%)
Mix_BPM: 3 options: 1) BPM_A 2) BPM_B 3) start the mix from BPM_A and reach BPM_B (keeping track in sync)
Intervals should contain the SAME number of beats.
The wizard should allow creating intervals containing loops.
Executing a template while TrackA is playing would mean:
load trackB on free deck.
when TrackA_Interval_Start is reached, the mix starts.
If BPM option 3) is selected, both tracks will start at BPM_A and end at BPM_B.
Optional: specify advanced mix properties with formatted strings could be entered into specific text-boxes.
Example: to move a track slider beat by beat, the formatted string, for a 16 beat mix, could be (values in percentage):
100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100,100;100;100;0
Note: in this example we have a comma as beat separator and an optional semicolon as sub-beat separator (here last beat is divided into 4 sub-beats and only the last 4th has the slide moved to 0).
Same string concept could be applied to other properties such as FXs, EQs and so on, each with its dedicated text-box.
One track might have more related templates, each specifying a different mix. When playing a track, there should be a list showing the templates (if any) related to the track, including a short template description.
