Pads XDJ-AZ, configuration sensibility and velocity

Is it possible adjust the sensibility and velocity response of the pads? If you press the pada fast for example in a hot cue, the response is very much slower than de hits. Is it possible to set the pads to as fast and sensible as the standard round CUE button? Thanks un advance. I cant find it in the menu of the XDJ-AZ, dont know if possible in rekordbox and then be to maintain the changes djing with usb.

There is no such setting to change the sensitivity of pads, but when Quantize is set to 1, it will adjust to stay in a beat, so you will feel it's slow.

If you set Quantize value to 1/2 or smaller, it will react faster.

Thanks a lot Grabriel.

I have just tested what you say in my XDJ-AZ.

And I have found 2 scenarios:

1. When you use HOT CUEs in "rolling mode", I mean while the play is playing the song, there is no way to switch between HOT CUES in real time with fast hits. But if you desactivate the QUANTIZE it works much better like you suggested, thanks. Not so fast as CUE button but much better.

2. When you use GATE CUES in the FX pads in "PAUSE MODE" the response is real time, like the round CUE button.

At least with your suggestion I can use them with Quantize off, but have a question:

What is the difference with CDJ-3000 HOT CUES?, they response in real time very fast with quantize set to 1 or whatever other value, or desactivated (i mean hot cues in rollin play mode, in pause mode they go perfect)

Do you know how to report this to the Tech Team to update via FIRMWARE, or they really get the info from these forums to implement the improvements from the users?

Thanks again.

Leonardo.
