There is 20 custom shortcuts / hotkeys in Lexicon. If you could make it possible to make possible to make as much shortcuts / hotkeys as we want, that would be real magic for tagging. I need at least 50 of them to be able to tag realy fast and efficiently. Thanks. ---

Which shortcuts do you mean specifically? ---

Thanks for clarifying. I’ve been meaning to update that to work with any number, I’ll try and improve that ---

Hi Chris, I am also thinking that it could be really nice to be able to reach files on cloud through mobile application rather than downloading them to the local storage and then back to PC. That way both Mobile and PC / Mac app could be synchronized via cloud and it would be possible to edit much more tracks through mobile app. For me, I can now have at mobile only 60 tracks due to storage. Keep it up! You’re doing a great job 🙂 Dňa st 12. 7. 2023, 0:42 jakub cerulik \<[jakubcerulik@gmail.com](mailto:jakubcerulik@gmail.com)\> napísal(a): ---

Yep that’s a great idea and it’s on the mobile todo list 🙂 ---

Any updates on this? Would love to have more than 20 options, use it for my Stream Deck to tag genres and give ratings to tracks. ---

If you use streamdeck, you already have infinite options with the stream deck plugin. If you use the streamdeck to call hotkeys, then you are limited to what you can set up in the Lexicon hotkeys [Controlling Lexicon from your Stream Deck](https://discuss.lexicondj.com/t/controlling-lexicon-from-your-stream-deck/54) ---

I know, but I use the shortcuts to easily give a genre to a track and more than 20 possibilities will be nice here. Or am I missing something and is it possible? I use it in this way: When I press a Stream Deck button ‘Melodic’ it is linked to ‘Add Tags assigned to shortcut 2’ which is a custom tag ‘Melodic Techno’ Then I can easily export the custom tag field to Rekordbox ‘Genre’ field to have there the genres I use. ---

No, 20 is the limit on custom tag shortcuts right now ---

hey, just wanted to ask on a status on this, is already implemented and i’ve missed it and if no is this feature still coming? right clicking a tag shows that there are 100 custom tags, but i can only seem to find 20 in my settings. i assume you could use the other numbers with a stream deck but i don’t own one because this feature would be such a massive speedup to my workflow (and at least to some other users going by this thread!) i’ve looked into virtual stream deck emulations that could maybe be triggered with third party keyboard macro software as a workaround. but the [official elgato emulation](https://www.elgato.com/us/en/s/virtual-stream-deck) requires owning hardware and the [only third party one i found](https://bitfocus.io/companion) requires someone writing and submitting code providing virtual piping for every device or software the emulator interacts with if i understood correctly… ---

The limit is 100 but maybe stream deck only shows 20? ---

no sorry i think theres a missunderstanding. i meant that in my keyboard mapping settings of lexicon i can assign keyboard shortcuts to only 20 of the numbers, but right clicking on a tag in the tag menu and going into the “assign shortcut number” shows 100 numbers available in total i was asking if i am missing something or if the shortcut numbers 21-100 arent mappable to keys. and if they in fact arent mappable to keyboard keys are there any plans to change this in the future and/or is there any workarounds in the meantime that don’t involve owning a stream deck? ---

Oh right, sorry. Yeah that is limited to 20 currently. I still have the plan to change that so it can be any amount, but the UI needs an overhaul for that to work and I don’t have time yet
