Hi Guys,
I was playing out in a club last night (first time in club using RX and Rekordbox) and about halfway through set I lost the ability to:
- Load Tracks from Controller and all other button functions
All lights when out on buttons; Load, Quantisize, Sync etc etc
Rekordbox still ran and I had the use of only one deck - luckily i threw in a loop that saved my ass for about 10 minutes before I managed to manually (through laptop and rekordbox solely) load and cue new tracks.
The controller then regained functionality - 1st allowing me to use play cue etc (however lights were still out) and I guess after 20 minutes the deck lit up again and all functionality was regained.
I was using a 13" macbook Pro Retina (el Capitain) no apps/internet/software running (power connected)
Master Out - RCAs into Mixer Running club surround and monitors
Any ideas? Help? Thoughts
I have been playing the Rx and rekordbox in Performance mode flat out for 2 weeks trying to find faults and up until last night was only able to find dead spots in mp3s.
The events last night worry me and I hope someone can help me out
Thanks in advance
Dan FX

It could well be there are power issues at the venue you were at last night. Other DJs who have had issues with their controllers noticed that unplugging a refrigerator or changing the power strip resolved their issues - even when the controller wasn't directly connected to wall-power, it was simply noisy power causing the electronics of the controller to freak-out and disconnect (or other issues).
