Regarding the Sync functionality and BPM changing afterwards

Hey guys. So I took some time ti read the manual, but until I get to the relevant stuff I have to ask here:

It seems that after a beatmixing using the sync option, I can't use the controller to affect the song's tempo.

Example:

1. I start with a 100 BPM song. SONG A.

2. I want to mix in a 110 BPM song. SONG B.

3. I sync SONG B to SONG A, which means that SONG B goes from 110 BPM to 100 BPM.

4. I mix SONG B in, fade SONG A out. So far, so good.

5. Now, this is where the problem is. I want to get SONG B to its original tempo (from 100 to 110), BUT! gradually. I can't do it with the controller. The only way I can make it is to press in the software on the reset bpm button. But it is not gradual.

What can I do in order to be able to manipulate the song's bpm from the controller, after I have used the sync option? I tried to toggle on and of the "master" option, didn't help.

I'm using a Pioneer DDJ-SB with the Cross DJ official mapping.

Yes, I seem to manage to do it with the mouse on the gui.

Whne I'm trying with the controller I see the knob in the gui moves but it is transparent, and when I finish moving it from the controller it gets back to where it was.

:cool: the traspernt slider is part of the take over feature ,,where the controller catches up with the changes in the software ,,ie sync ,, bpm go up down in software ,,but controller in same postion ,,, when you get to the software postion with the controller it then will take over ,, :cool:
