Question about Sync behavior

Postby FigDJ on 30 Mar 2014, 15:22

Ok with Sync link enabled.

I load and start deck A (A is master)
I load deck B and line up to the beat or cue point were i want the track to start.
Press sync on deck B and I lights up in the GUI.
Wait until the playing track on deck A reaches the desired point.
press play on the B and the 2 tracks on deck A and B are running in Sync.
All is well. Now the same scenario with Sync link disabled.

I load and start deck A (A is master)
I load deck B and line up to the beat or cue point wre i ant the track to start.
Press sync on deck B and I and the deck start playing in sync with deck A without even pressing the play button.

So, the point is the difference in behavior of the sync button between the sync link parameter being enabled or disabled. I find this a little strange. Is this the intended behavior? If this is the intended behavior I am OK with that but I just need a little clarification and guidance on the logic as it seems to me that the pressing of sync button behavior should be the same and the difference between having sync link enable or not is wether a sync deck follows the master with tempo changes.

This different sync button behaviour got me confused too at first. I have to confess I am a huge fan of the fact that sync button also starts playing the track. To me it is more effective for the workflow since it means one less button press. I sort of wish that sync link enabled it behaved the same way since I've grown so accustomed to it. :cool:
