Hi im getting a set of cdj 850 k's sometime next week. im wondering after looking at the rekordbox features and what cdj's certain features work on what will work exactly.
Basically i have downloaded rekordbox and have been setting hot cue points and loops. The loops ive been saving in memory and the cues in the hot loop section (3). I have been using quantize and adjusting the beat grid.
I want to know, if what im doing currently will all work on the 850 a. quantizing and adjusting beat grids
b. Saving cue points to the hot cue points (850s dont have hot cues) Should i be saving these to the memory
Also just for when i get these how do i go about calling these up on the cdj and how easy/effective is it?
Thanks for any help
I posted this in the rekordbox section but thort 850 users may be able to help more

@Shane > No, the CDJ-850s do not utilise Quantize. Yes, you will need to save the cue points as Memory points. Calling them up is relatively easy but they do not function as hot cues - they function as memory points.
Certainly, if you do update your players at a later stage or if you will be playing gigs on the higher end equipment you'll be well prepared so adjusting doing all the track preparation in rekordbox certainly isn't a waste of time.
