Hi, I’m using Rekordbox with the new DDJ-RZ for some weeks now and still have some problems and some questions besides the ones I already reported.
• Tracks keep crashing while in the mix, which is not so nice for my speakers... The only solution is to restart Rekordbox and the DDJ. Problem is I don’t get a crash log file because record box itself closes normal. It’s only the decks that seem to crash. It seems to happens random, only using loops and sync activated.
• About pitchcontrol: When using sync the only pitchcontrol that should work is the master deck if I understand correctly. However, a lot of times it’s not possible to change the pitch with the fader from the master deck. The only way to ‘reset’ pitchcontrol is to de-activate sync, and then go up and down with the pitch fader. Am I’m doing something wrong? This is a very annoying problem.
• If you press AUTO LOOP on a track that is paused it starts playing. Why? It would be more logical that it only selects the track part, but keeps paused. Of course it should play automatically if you press it during the some playing.
• Bug: if you want to change colours in the edit screen of the cue pads you really have to click left mouse button while holding the mouse max to the left side of the pad. Otherwise no colours except return to green is visible.
• Sometimes deck 2 automatically starts playing when loading a track. Not funny if you forgot to turn down that channel.

Brother I'm using the DDJ-SX2 and I'm having more or less the same issues. adding to it that the filter knob have no effect when I turn it left or right and I do not seem to be able to locate if available the "BMP edit" on performance mode. My deck have not crash so far.
You can find the BPM edit by pressing on the small arrow underneath the deck's number.
However, this also doesn't work as it is supposed to do. I'm not always able to change the grid as I want to.
Upgraded to .4. Besides the issues above I got 2 more today:
- deck that was turned off was still audiable through the master output..
- sync doesn't seem to keep up with other decks and is not in really sync anymore. Actually I miss the very reliable 'snap on to correct grid' from Traktor if you start the second track. Coldn't go wrong with that. I have Quantize activated.
O, and another strange thing that when I move the pitch slider from a track that was paused, channel off the first que point started to make a stange distorted noise. No other decks were playing, it was the first track of the set.
