Slow Pitch/Tempo Reset

I'd like to suggest that when resetting the pitch/tempo , it does so slowly, instead of instantly. This caught me out at a live gig recently, producing a very quick and noticeable change in the music.

I realise that this will become less of a problem as I use the sliders on my controller more and more, but the feature would be a very useful one. :biggrin:

Thanks.

Did you press the "o" button in the middle of the pitch bend buttons? I did that yesterday during a live set and it worked without problems for me. I have looped a melody in Tempo mode and moved about 10% without any issues :-X

I did press the 'o' button and it changed instantly. I don't know if the people dancing noticed - but I certainly did! :lol:

I'd been using the 'sync' button to mix, and started to get a little high on the bpm (about 5%). I hit the 'o'o button to try and bring everything back to normal speed.

I can see now why it's better to use the pitch sliders - much more fine control. I guess I've learned a good lesson there! ;)

:cool: :cool: :idea: thought to either remapp the controller to have a more slowwer curve or use the key board and map a funtion to raise or lower the pitch,i have mapped the gains on both decks to allow for keyboard control rather than mouse,, not so much a work around rather but rather expanding the control of the software :idea: :idea: it would be nice to know if the rate of increase/decrease already mapped in the key stroke shift 0 is adjustable and what would be the parameters :idea: :idea: :?: :?: :!: :cool: :cool:

I've worked out a solution:

What I shall do in future is use the pitch sliders to sync the tracks as close as possible. Then if I do need to use the sync button to bring the tracks perfectly together, the pitch only shifts a tiny amount, and if I need to reset it, it will only be a tiny percentage, hardly audible, and the bonus is that I can still have full control through the sliders.

(What used to happen before, is that if I'd been using just the sync buttons, the pitch would also quickly return to the 'o' position when I even touched the sliders - still not good! However, using the method above, I can alter the pitch back to zero gradually, and it all works perfectly. :D)

Would REALLY love this to happen, would it be so hard to implement please?? ;)
