M-Audio Digital DJ System manual External Control, Midi Prefs

EXTERNAL CONTROL

One of Torq’s greatest features is the ability to use external sources to control the playback of your song files. In particular, you can use external MIDI hardware (such as the X-Session Pro DJ controller) to control various features within Torq LE.

MIDI Prefs

The second tab of the Preferences contains the MIDI options. At the bottom of this tab is a list of all the available MIDI input devices on your computer. Each device has a “Yes/No” option to enable or disable it. Set the MIDI device to “Yes” if you wish to use it to control Torq LE. Otherwise, set the device to “No” and Torq will ignore it (allowing you to use it to control a different application).

Once you have enabled a MIDI Input, you will be able to use it to control Torq LE by means of MIDI Learn, which will be described next.
