    Everytime I turn on the Delay with the FRZ button enabled (to create an echo that fades out) the pitch lowers itself a few semitones/cents (can't really hear how much, but it is very noticable)

    I've tried with a ton of settings/multiple songs playing but the bug is still there.

    Any ideas or is this just a poorly designed effect?

    Delay has to be engaged before you turn on your FRZ function to get the effect, and then Delay has to be disengaged to her your freeze feedback.

    No, that is not the case...

    After further testing I've found out that the bug only appears if I'm trying to use the Delay effect on two tracks at the same time

    I'm using deck A&B for regular mixing and deck C&D for effects, loops and such.
    When i apply the delay to deck C (while deck A is running) the pitch downstep occurs, and likewise when I apply the effect to deck A. Even when one of the decks are stopped (A running, C stopped) the bug is there...... BUT.. when I've just started Traktor and is applying the effect to the first deck that has a song loaded (before a second deck has been loaded) the Delay works like it should.

    In short: The Bug "only" occurs after I've loaded/played more than one song into Traktor. Could this be a master clock problem in some strange way?

    And is someone else able to reproduce this error?

    I'm bumping this, since it's really starting to annoy me... i can't use my echos as i want to =\

    at least not on vocal or melodic parts of a song...

    Can anyone else reproduce this?

    I get this too, and I can reproduce it every time on certain tracks I play.
    I thought it was timecode related but I'm gonna check it out with my controller.

    I'm getting this also. The master clock tempo drifts (and it appears to drift by design). With that said, since the delay effect is tempo-synced with the master clock, if the clock tempo read changes so does our effect. Anybody found a work-around?
