DDJ SR2 Hot Cue color pads going blank

I copy a similar post because I have the same problem on the ddj-sr2 but I haven't found the firmware for this model.

Hello I own the new DDJ SX2 and was trying it out for couple minutes and already noticed that the hot cue colors turn blank after a while. When you delete hot cues on the pads it of course deletes the colors but this is happening with out deleting any hot cues, the hot cues are still present just not showing up on the pads. Yet the hot cues are still present and of course where never deleted. Please let the techs know to fix as soon as possible because this can become a nuisance with other djs because you can get easily confused if you have hot cues or not. I know you can just look up at the monitor but I am sure you can understand thats just a temporary answer thanks.

Probably a software issue - try this (if you're on a PC, skip to step 7):

Open the Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup app
Click Window > Show MIDI Studio
At the top of the window, click the drop-down menu and select New Configuration...
Give it a name (eg. 2023) and click OK
Click the IAC Driver (should be red) and press the Delete key on your keyboard
Close the Audio MIDI Setup application
Open Serato DJ Pro
Open the preferences
Click the MIDI tab
Click the DDJ-SR2 in the upper window
Un-check the Allow Serato Hardware Remapping button above that window
Click the Restore Defaults button at the bottom of that window
Close preferences and test as usual

Please test with Serato; if it works there, the problem is VDJ and you'll have to contact Virtual's support team for assistance.
