Setting Active Loops Help

Any help or info would be appreciated may b i am missing some thing on this

So i spent about 4 weeks prepping 4 to 5 different sets  for an all day label party we ran in June, all most all my tracks i set active 8 to 32 bar loops at the end of each track  just for ease of mixing out and i guess flow & as we all know some tracks can end abruptly and not to dj friendly 

My home set up at the moment is an xdj rx2 with Vinyl also - active loops on this worked perfect i would be able to load track which would start at the start and when it hits the active loop it would auto loop (Perfect) 

Soon as i loaded a track on the Nexus CDJS,s it would auto cue to the start of my loop at the end of the track absolute nightmare as it would not let me cue from the start or if i did it would be difficult (Luckily had my laptop so spent a few hours deleting them all )

My question how do we stop this from happening - it works perfect on the XDJ am i missing some setting on the nexus that allows me to do the same as the xdj 

 Any help would appreciated 

Thank you all

Or create a hot cue at the start of the track.

Or disable the functionality to load the first cue / memory point.

There are several options.

Go to Utility on the CDJ and make sure Auto Cue Level is not set to 1st Memory Cue. That way the CDJ will not auto cue at the first Memory Cue point.

You can also save your preferred settings to your USB stick and load them whenever you're playing on different players, so you don't have any surprises.

Thanks i did create hot cues at start of track but that option means you can only start with hot cue which id rather just start the track with the normal option (if that makes sense)

Disabling the functionality to load first cue seems to be the way forward & making sure 1st memory cue is not set - i did save all these settings to USB but unsure on different types of settings for different players etc 

So if i go to utility and disable  auto cue i will be able to use as normal and when it hits the end loop it will auto loop ?

Thanks for the info very appreciated ;-)
