So im using mixvibes Cross with cdj's (specifically cdj 1000's and 900's).
Anyway once I set a cue point up on the cdj's, every time i hit cue after this point it never returns to the "true" point of where I set the cue point at the start of the first beat. This shows on the wave form as well because it never returns to where I actually set the cue point, instead it shows slightly off the mark when i keep hitting the cue button.
Also when I use the pitch bend on the jog wheel it feels different to pitch bending normally with CD's as I am used to, is there anyway to get this original feel back?
Finally when I adjust the bpm with the pitch slider it takes a while to acknowledge that I have actually moved the slider even though i have my latency set to 1ms.

Are you using timecode CDs or are you using your CDJs as HID?

I'm always using vinyl mode on my cdj's and I never use master tempo either.

any kind of help would be appreciated.
Is this cue offset intentional? It's kind of hard to explain,
I mean when I set it on the first beat I look at the wave form and listen to get it perfect. Then when I mash the cue button on my cdj's it goes slightly off and wont return to the exact point I originally set it at.
It's extremely frustrating because it means I have to spend more time pitch adjusting with the jog wheel then I should have to.

cue'ing on cdj's.
Mixvibes is my first DVS, i bought cdj 900's last year to avoid the whole laptop DJ'ing. Now that i have started to get gigs alot of the places i am playing at are still using cdj 1000's so i can't take advantage of rekordbox and using a usb stick. So I bought mixvibes about 3 weeks ago because it was a cheap as i need a DVS because none of my music was organised by CD's as I assumed most places would be using 900's/2000's by now.
So yes I can mix with my ears.
If you read the post I said i "looked at the wave form and used my ears to make sure it was pefectly on beat(which it was). PURELY Because I could not work out why my cue was not staying on beat.

Alright, hope you didnt take any offense, we´re cool? Anyway, when you say mashing the cue-button, how fast do go before the offset begins or is it there from the first time? cheers J

Yeah its all good man.
Anytime i hit the cue button after the time i intially set it. Even just pressing it once.
I mean have you used cdj's with mixvibes?
I'm not 100% sure on this but I think When I Hold down the cue button on the cdj's the software thinks I'm pressing play. When i hold then release the cue button, the timeline on the software thinks i have just paused, it doesn't actually return to the point where i set the cue UNTILL i hit it again then it returns to it but its offset from the initial cue point i set.
Does this make sense at all lol? Im trying to explain the best I can.
