How to use the console

From pasting your first link to blending two full tracks — here's everything the deck and mixer controls do.

Quick start

  1. Paste a YouTube link into the URL field on Deck A (or Deck B) and press Load. Any standard youtube.com/watch, youtu.be, or Shorts link works.
  2. Press Play on the deck's transport row once the track shows "READY". The vinyl icon spins while a deck is playing.
  3. Load a second track on the other deck the same way, so you have something to mix into.
  4. Move the crossfader in the mixer panel toward Deck A or Deck B to blend between the two — center is an even 50/50 mix.
  5. Fine-tune levels with each deck's own Volume fader, the mixer's Channel Volumes, and Master Volume.

Deck controls

  • Play / Pause / Stop — standard transport. Stop resets the deck's position display back to zero.
  • Cue — jumps back to the deck's saved cue point and pauses there, ready to drop back in.
  • Set Cue — saves the current playback position as that deck's new cue point.
  • Restart — jumps straight back to the very beginning of the track without changing play/pause state.
  • Prev / Next — step backward or forward through the tracks you've loaded on that deck this session (each Load adds to that deck's queue).
  • Seek bar — drag to scrub anywhere in the track; elapsed and remaining time update as you drag.

Volume, speed & pitch

  • Volume — each deck's own trim level, independent of the mixer.
  • Mute — silences that deck instantly; the button glows red while active.
  • Speed — changes playback rate from 0.25× to 2×.
  • Pitch — shown in semitones and linked to Speed, the same way a turntable's pitch fader works: moving one moves the other.

Mixer

  • Crossfader — blends Deck A and Deck B using an equal-power curve, so the mix doesn't dip in volume at center.
  • Channel Volumes — a second-stage fader per deck, on top of each deck's own Volume control.
  • Master Volume — the final overall level for both decks combined.
  • Mute A / Mute B / Mute Master — instantly cut a single deck or the entire mix.
  • VU meters — react live to what's playing and how loud each channel is set.
