    The first thing that comes to mind is that autocue may have been off; this would have meant that once you load a new tune it would have started playing straight away & no new cue point would have been set. If you then press the cue button while it’s playing it would’ve jumped back to the cue point on the previous track. If auto cue was active on the right hand deck the tune would have not played straight away when you loaded it. To toggle autocue on or off you need to press and hold down the Time Mode button. Might this be the problem?

    Hi Phil

    thanks very much for that – it makes sense and I’ll give that a go next time I’m on those decks. One thing that still puzzles me is why would this issue kick in after a few tunes played successfully? That happened to me and the other dj in the same manner – all went fine for say three or four tunes then we could get past the queuing issue.

    It just seemed odd that this pattern happened to us both – if it had been from the start I could have understood this more.

    In any event thanks for the idea Phil and I will definitely look into that. It was the first time I’d worked on linked decks and I wasn’t warned beforehand. As hard as I look so far I haven’t managed to find anything anywhere talking about this issue.

    thanks for coming back on this – much appreciated

    One tip is to set all the options for the decks in advance in RekordBox and save those to your USB stick too. When you plug it in, it will ask if you want to load those personal settings. Say yes and all is well, repeat for other deck. That way you know both players have the same settings.
