Topic: Jumping BPM / Wrong speed detection

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hello dear VDJ community.

I have the following setup ...

2x Stanton S.150
2x VirtualDJ8 Timecode Vinyl from the VDJ-Shop
1x Allen & Heath Xone 22
1x Hercules DJ Trim
and of course VDJ8

everything runs on a MacBook Pro (late 2013) with macOS Sierra

and the following problem ...

VDJ8 has been reinstalled. Timecodes calibrated and everything works.
If I now add a song in DECK A , then the pitch display jumps to 0.3% or a similarly small value from the beginning.
If I match the track in the DECK B, then the BPM jumps and the track runs faster forward extremely audibly.
I haven't this problem with VDJ7 and the old Numark Timecodes. In VDJ 7 the mixes are very precise. But I would like to use version 8.
BPM autoMatch is set to NO.

Is there the possibility to adjust the sensitivity of the speed recognition?

I am already afraid of the next gig, because my crossing may currently only take a maximum of 10 seconds.

Maybe someone has an idea.

best regards

Andre

I have this same issue with 3967 & XDJRX with latest full midi firmware

I get a quick Downloading messege on the GUI & the XDJ decks start flashing and either one of the tracks will jump up .5 - 2 bpm.

Ever since full midi mode has been implimented it seems.

I also noticed the Controllers mapping window jumps through 5 or 6 different mapping commands during the “downloading flashing sequence/issue”.
[ONINIT:PITCH:SPEED_ADJ:INPUT_HW:DECK:GAIN:EQ_HIGH/MID/LOW]
I tried to figure out and disable them few commends but it hasnt worked.

Disabling auto bpm, key, smart etc has not help.... only thing that stops this issue is disabling/deleting the pitch/tempo slider all together. But im not 100 on that either.

It must be somthing to do with full midi support and the hw/sw pitch tempo slider differences or a change on the fader to master...?

Any help please, i will so appreciate it.
