Hi there,
I have recently purchased a DDJ-RX and a PC running Windows 10 and have experienced nothing but problems.
Firstly i am unable to update the firmware on my DDJ-RX using a PC running Windows 10. When i download the zip file and unzip it there is no exe. file. I called the pioneer helpline and the support guy just basically read out exactly word for word the instruction pdf that is on the website. When i said i'd already tried all of that including the java download, he said he was unable to help me any further and to take it into my local store. When i took it in there, no one was familiar with PCs or Windows 10 so we succesfully updated it via a Mac.
All was ok until i recently updated Rekordbox to version 4.2.0b. When i open it without the DDJ connected it is fine but as soon as i plug in the DDJ, Rekordbox crashes instantly with an 'Unexpected Application Error'. I have updated the firmware (again via a trip to my local store with a Mac as myself and the staff in store have no idea how to do it via Windows 10)
I have restarted the computer numerous times, plugged the DDJ in different USB ports, uninstalled and reinstalled Rekordbox but still the same problem. whether i plug the DDJ in first then open Rekordbox or vice versa the application quits with the same message...'Unexpected Application Error'
Just to confirm, i have a new HP laptop 64-bit with 8gb of RAM running Windows 10. I have the latest version of Rekordbox 4.2.0b, Windows driver pack 1.000 and firmware version 1.03 all succesfully installed. But cannot use the DDJ-RX or Rekordbox together without the program crashing instantly with the 'Unexpected Application Error' message
Please can you advise me on any thing i can do to fix this ASAP please as i'm at my wits end!!
Cheers
Andy
