Rekordbox DJ pitch to nearest 0.1%? Seriously?

I hope to god I'm just missing something here...

When all players go to 0.05% or 0.02% why does the DJ software only go to 0.1%? I have just upgraded to a DDJ-RX and this is extremely disappointing.


I like to do long mixes and 3 or 4 deck mashups when playing live, and the ability to only have pitch control to the nearest 0.1% doesn't allow for tight beat matching you need for this.

I was hoping this was is only a display thing, but I cannot see anyway to change it in the settings.

What is the point in giving the ability to change the Pitch range between 6% - 16% if it doesn't change the values of the pitch slider? You might as well just leave it on +/-16%.

Rekordbox DJ goes to +/- 0.01%.  On my CDJ2000 (non-NXS), the display shows +/- 0.1%, but on the CPU, it correctly shows +/- 0.01%.  You may need to change the setting, but I think that requires you to be in Performance mode and have the CDJ connected.

I do run on vertical but with 4 decks. Notice the BPM does go to 0.01 in 2 deck mode. Is it not possible to make the text a bit smaller on 4 deck mode to fit it in?

@Samuel > My point was specifically that the software does support it, it just may not show it.

We've asked the rekordbox team for several GUI improvements but they may not come around until a major revision.

Consider hitting that SYNC button. I know a lot of DJs are against it, but it really works and saves time and effort, plus allows for much more accurate pitch positioning.
