TP2 sync just to match BPM

I have just updated to TP2 and all I want to do is use sync to match the BPM between tracks. When I deactivate sync on the track I’ve just BPM matched it reverts to its original BPM.

I can’t seem to match BPMs without keeping the “sync” highlighted on the track I’ve BPM matched and it’s doing my (very small brain inside my) head in.

It causes mad lag if I want to fire off a new track out of phase.

Same issue in tempo sync and beat sync.

Is there another way to match BPMs (apart from using the tempo sliders) that I’ve not learned?

I’ve searched the forum for similar posts (someone has suggested I hold play while pushing sync, this doesn’t work for me) and can’t seem to find one but apologise if this has already been answered.

You need to deactivate sync while the slave deck is playing, otherwise it reverts to original the tempo.

Thank you.

So simple.
Like me.

Legend.

Is there any way round this? Its pretty rubbish to have to sync start the track then unsync. This never used to be the case. It used to take a quick double tap of the sync button to get tempos matched then you could fire off the track whenever you want. It now acts like the quantize button is on but its not. :disappointed:

Why do you need to deactivate sync anyway?

…so i can free style the cue button and not be stuck to a beat to beat quantize type thing. Double time cueing if you get me, kind of like if you were scratching a beat in on turntables.

MMM

I haven’t found a way around this either. But honestly, once you get used to it, it takes no time at all. Just play the track and press sync twice.

Will do… Wierd change they’ve made though isn’t it. Sure they should have plenty of other things to worry about rather than this little wierd amendment :smiley:

won’t selecting “TempoSync” instead of “BeatSync” under “Transport > Sync Mode” in the prefs do what u want?

Nope :disappointed:
