Fellow DJs
I have been using CDJ 2000 Nexus units since 2014, and since the beginning when I have loaded a track by pressing the rotary selector the track has loaded but not started. When I have pressed the cue button it has acted like a Pioneer cue ought to... if there is no cue point than one is created, and otherwise the track starts playing for as long as the cue button is held down.
At a gig Saturday night, my CDJs suddenly started acting differently. When I pressed the rotary selector the selected track not only loaded, but started playing. Furthermore, the cue button had no effect upon the playing track. In fact, the light ring around it was not even lit. If I stopped the track, and hit cue, the previous track was re-loaded!
I found a work around, using the CUE / LOOP call buttons. If I hit the left, or back, of those buttons then the track would jump to the first cue, and from then on the cue button would act normally.
I have not updated the firm ware in any way.
I spent the last minutes before my set digging into long press Menu > Utility, but I could not find any settings that adjusted the cue button function or the actions upon loading a track.
Of note, last month I jumped on a buddies XDJ - RX, and it acted the same way, making me think that maybe it is my Rekordbox thumb drives that are causing this to happen. Some Rekordbox DJ setting that is being transmitted to the players? I also play around on an old XDJ - AERO, and the funny actions have not shown up on it.
Does anyone have any thoughts?
regards
Rolf
