And if I'm short of time (i.e. trying to be too clever for my own good) I just use whatever cue point I've got when I need to drop it in and wing it from there

sounds good now. last thing i need to know then i can leave you lot alone. this is hard to explain. on technics are any turntables when the track is going too fast you touch the platter to slow it down a bit while your catching the beat. on the cdj is there away of doing this? ive been able to speed it up but moving my hand around the vinyl part of the cdj although when i try and slow it, it stops or reverses.

thanks

Use the outer ring to slow the track down instead of the jog wheel.

switch of vinyl mode and you can use the whole platter, or just keep vinyl mode on and use the outer ring of the jog wheel...
