XDJRX firmware 1.6
I just upgraded to 1.8 and started having way too many issues
that weren't there before. I want to go back to 1.6 that worked fine
for me. Does anyone have the file to send me?
If you have not updated to 1.8 DONT... you won't like it.
I know they are busy getting the February update ready, but come on
October's 1.8 is bad, I see slot if people having issues with it.
If they can't give us a better version sooner, give us one that works better

BPM changing
master on both decks at the same time
using the fader used to change master left to right
quantize is way off due to BPM jumping around
even using sync button is off BPM still changes randomly
its just really different than where it was before update
even as controller on Rekordbox is off

I too have major regrets updating.
Playing out 4-5 nights a week. I had zero issues until I updated to XDJ-RX 1.8 and Rekordbox 4.0.5.
Since then, Rekordbox quit unexpectedly resulting in music going off - twice! The feeling of playing out with that horrible lack of trust with your equipment is not what I invested such a large sum of money for and not what I expected from Pioneer.
I lost my database info as I have started again. I couldn't go back to 1.6 because it just didn't seem to want to go back.
It's also made me lose trust in Rekordbox 4 because at the moment I'm unsure of the issue as it appeared random.
So I'm forced upon 1.8 and using Rekordbox 3.
Another issue I've noticed is that the hot cue blue lights aren't lighting up for my set cue points. So if I load a track up, set some hot cues, when I load that track again, the blue lights are not on for those hot cues and when pressing them they re-set new hot cues (although on the LCD screen, I can see the green marker for them - so it's as if it knows they exist for it to show them, but the hot cue buttons are not playing ball).
I always had the "if it's not broke, don't try to fix it" and this has solidified the fact that I need to be more strict with that.
Is there a way I can downgrade firmware to 1.6?
