Hot Cues: (Pads light-up red) Each of the five pads can be set to different cue points in the track, and re-triggered whenever you hit them. So, you can set 5 'cue' points in your track, and jump back to them when you choose to.
When you want to remove a cue point and assign a new one, just hold down the mode button, hit the pad again, and its clear! |

Loop Roll: (Pads light-up green) This mode loops tiny fragments of your track, from 1 beat down to 1/16th of a beat. This allows you to create climaxes and drops, as well as glitchy breaks or stuttered 'roll' effects. When you release the pad, the track resumes from where it was before you hit it. |

Auto Loop: (Pads light-up orange) Serato automatically detects loop-points in your track. With Dicer's 5 pads, you can access loops of different lengths and re-trigger them whenever you want. Dicer works straight away with Scratch Live. Just connect one to a USB port, link it to the other Dicer, and you are ready to go.
