Master - SYNC issue

When I have track A running as master and B as SYNC both run fine.
But when I am pushing the hotcue button on the master deck very fast, the Bdeck (sync) does the same. (it does not keep running but also "stutters")

When I do this with the SYNC deck, the master keeps running without any problem.

I did not test this with the 1.1.2 so maybe this is normal? I did not file bug for it, so can u guys advize me?

 

Nah that would be expected behavior. Here's the deal Deck is the Master clock source and it is produce timing values based on the position of the gridmarker in the track and the playhead relative to it. when you key hitting the hotcue on the deck you are altering time reference for all decks tht are synced to master. so if you press it rapidly with say only a 10 MSec between presses each time you do press it you reset the timing output back to the position of the hotcue. With Deck B synced to to the master source you will also do a relative reset of the timing for that deck too.
So, if your deck A hotcue is say 125 Msec past a beat then the deck B relative position will be 125 Msec past the beat on its track too. IF deck A playhead then advances 200 msecs past the hotcue and the hotcue is triggered, then Deck B will follow that by advancing 200MSecs and when hot is pressed the track will jump back to the same relative position to the beat in its track which is 125Msec after the beat.

How you can avoid this condition is by using Int mode where master clock is the reference source and sync your decks to that.

 

i see, ok thanks a lot Phil!
