ERROR, 2000mk1-2000Nexus problem

With the latest firmware upgrade on the Nexus to 1.06 and 4.20 on the mk1s,I thought we were safe with the freezing etc but a new issue has now revealed it self:

Loaded my perfectly working USB in 2 2000mk1 and played for a night without any errors, even loops were on spot.
The night after that, loaded the same USB in my 2000 nexus that i´ve been using now for a couple of months with the nexus decks and firmware 1.06 – at first sight everything was working perfectly but after a while:
Wave zoom was missing on several songs
Wave format at the bottom was missing but not wave zoom on some songs
BPM was not instant, hade to let the song play for a while before the BPM pop’d up
AND THE MOST SCARY OF ALL, some random songs froze the Nexus and error messages appeared and a reboot was the only solution

Gear:

2000mk1, firmware 4,20 (played on the first night)

2000Nexus Firmware 1,06 (played on the secong night, haven’t had any problems since the new firmware update)

Rekordbox 2.02

@Gavin and Pulse, this issue is really troubling if you can’t play on mk1:s and then jump to Nexus straight away with the same USB. The only solution I got now is to format my USB and export all the songs again (missing out on cue points etc I’ve been setting on the fly with the decks). This is absolutely not an optimal setup…

Any comments?

@Taang > Did you re-analyse your tracks for the "Missing Data" within rekordbox and then re-export them to the USB (look for the blue icons in rekordbox)? This would seem to be your problem and solve the waveform / BPM issues.

Thanks for your reply Gavin, appreciate you taking your time with this. But maybe I wasn't clear enough describing the issue. I´ve been spinning on 2000 nexus for a while now, and the USB I was using was perfect with all info (wave zoom, BPM) etc on it. Just for one night I played on 2000mk1, and after that the issue started when I got back on my Nexus, missing out on BPM Wave Zoom etc... So simple solution is that I have one USB for 2000 mk1 and one USB for 2000 nexus, you follow me?

And also, Blue icons?? I´ve never seen blue icons in rekord box and I´ve been using it for a while now. Analyze missing data is grayed out for me, but that is not the problem, I had to format the USB stick and re export all the songs to it again and now it´s working in the Nexus again, until the next time im spinning on 2000mk1's again...?!?!...

Thanks for looking into this!

It would appear that since you re-analysed everything that it also analysed the missing data.

Just so we are clear, everything is working fine now with the USB on your CDJnexus? Everything is showing up correctly?

If that is the case, then everything should display correctly on the CDJ mk1 the next time you go to use it.

Hmm, maybe I haven’t been clear enough and I do apologies for that but I´ll try to explain the process again:

I’ve been spinning on the Nexus a couple of months now, and after the latest update (1,06) and newly analyzed tunes in rekordbox everything has been working fine with wave zoom, Hot cues, BPM etc
For ONE night I jumped back with the same USB to a par of 2000mk1, played all night with no issues
Got back on my Nexus the night after, haven’t done anything with my USB, plugged it in and wave zoom were missing, BPM was missing and also some random tunes froze the nexus so I had to re-boot them.

Question: Why did this happened? Did the 2000mk1 rearrange something on the USB so the Nexus flipped out? IF this is the case, I have to have 2 USB, one for playing on 2000mk1, one for playing on Nexus. (this solution is of course not optimal….)

I’ve lost all info that I’ve been putting in on the “fly” with Nexus now, e.g. cue points, hot cues etc because they aren’t picked up by rekordbox.

Do you see the problem Gavin? And also, has anyone reported this issue?

Thanks for taking your time with this
