Scratch Sensitivity 

This option allows you to configure how rapidly a Deck 
will respond to messages sent from a MIDI controller (it 
has no effect on External Control with Vinyl or CDs).  It is 
designed for controllers that will move the waveform back 
and forth, typically those with jog wheels.

      1.     By increasing the number, the Deck will respond 

more rapidly.

      2.     By decreasing the number, the Deck will respond 

more slowly.

Nudge Sensitivity

This setting allows you to adjust Torq’s sensitivity to 
“nudging” or gradually slipping the phase of one deck to 
match the phase of the other deck.

By default this parameter is set to 5, however:

1.   By increasing the number, the Deck will nudge your 

track more rapidly.

2.   By decreasing the number, the Deck will nudge 

your track more gradually.

Note that this setting differs from the “Scratch Sensitivity” 
parameter which changes Torq’s sensitivity to scratches, which 
“push” or “pull” your waveform much more quickly and forcefully than a nudge.  Unlike a scratch, a nudge very gently slows down 
or speeds up a track and is used to fine tune the timing of two tracks.

Crossfader Curve Control

This preference allows you to assign a MIDI controller to the Crossfader Curve parameter. You can then control the 
Crossfader Curve with a knob or slider on your MIDI controller. 

1.  Press the button labeled “Learn” to activate it. The button will turn red. 

2.  Turn a knob on your MIDI controller.

3.   Torq will immediately assign the knob to the Crossfader Curve and the button will turn green. Check this by 

looking at the Crossfader graphic in the main window while turning the knob.

MIDI SHIFT Key

When using Torq, the SHIFT key on your computer’s keyboard is used rather often. This option lets you assign a MIDI 
Note to function as “SHIFT” in Torq, thus allowing you to do SHIFT-based combinations (such as SHIFT+Nudge) entirely 
from an external MIDI controller. To assign a MIDI note:

1.  Press the button labeled “Learn” to activate it. The button will turn red.

2.  Push a button or key on your MIDI controller. The MIDI Shift Key button will turn green.

3.  Torq will immediately assign the button as a Shift key for use within the program.

Instant Doubles

Torq will automatically copy the song from one Deck and place it on the other when using the Instant Doubles feature. 
This function can be triggered by keys on your computer’s keyboard or with an external MIDI controller. There are two 
preferences here—Instant Double A->B will copy the song from Deck A over to Deck B while Instant Doubles B->A will 
do the opposite. To assign keys to these actions:

1. Click the button labeled “Learn” to activate it. It will turn red.

2. Push a button or key on your MIDI controller or keyboard. The Learn button will turn green.

3. Torq will immediately assign the key or button to the action—it is now ready for use.

DJ oriented MIDI controllers with turntable 
platters will vary in how they handle scratching and 
nudging.  Certain products will allow you to control 
only nudging, while others (such as the M-Audio 
Xponent) will allow you to control both nudging 
and scratching.  Refer to the product’s user guide to 

learn if each turntable platter is capable of sending 

out both MIDI note and CC information.  If so, 
assign each turntable’s MIDI note and CC commands 
to the corresponding Main Waveform Display in 
Torq (this is done using the “MIDI Learn” feature 
described in the MIDI Preferences section of this 
guide).  

If your turntable can only send out MIDI CC 
information but not MIDI note data (i.e., the 
turntable is not touch sensitive), then you will only 
be able to control nudging.  Assign the turntable’s 
MIDI CC output to control the corresponding Main 
Waveform Display in Torq (again, this is done using 
the “MIDI Learn” feature described in the MIDI 
Preferences section of this guide).
