Dear Pioneers Team,
I have just bought a DDJ 1000 and I'm still testing the controller, which I like in general, but the following issue annoys and irritates me.
Some effects can not be heard/prelistened on the headphones using the channels [HEADPHONE CUE button].
These effects can only be heard on the headphones when I use the [MASTER CUE button].
This means I can NOT prelisten some effects on my headphones using the [HEADPHONE CUE button].
I guess this is not normal, isn't it?
As I have bought an official and tested B-Stock DDJ 1000 controller I wonder if this issues is hardware or software based?
Regarding Sound Color FX:
The effect "D.ECHO" can not be heard on the Headphones using [HEADPHONE CUE button],
but PITCH, NOISE and FILTER can be heard on the Headphones.
Regarding BEAT FX:
Low Cut Echo, Echo, MT Delay, Spiral, Reverb, Enigma Jet can not be heard on the Headphones using [HEADPHONE CUE button], they can ONLY be heard on the Headphones using the [MASTER CUE button].
Trans, Flanger, Phaser, Pitch, Slip Roll, Roll, Moibus Saw and Moibous Tri can be heard on the the Headphones using [HEADPHONE CUE button] as well as [MASTER CUE button].

Another issue:
The Reverb and Pitch Effect settings/parameters can only be manipulated on the Controller when I have actived [Beat FX Multi-Mode] in the Rekordbox DJ software.
When I use [Beat FX Single-Mode] I have to set the parameters in the software, which means I can not use the hardware [BEAT Buttons] in the Beat-FX Section to set the parameters.
Is this for a special/technical reason or a bug?
-----
I want to ask you for a quick reply, as I have only 7 days left to return the controller to the shop where I bought it.
Thank you a lot,
all the best for you
and a happy and healthy 2022,
Aaron
