3. Instant Grid-Aligned Playback on Play Button Press:

  • 3.1. Immediate Grid Start:
    • When the “Play” button is pressed for a deck, the track should begin playback instantly and perfectly aligned to the beat grid.
  • 3.2. No “Chasing” or Adjustment:
    • The playback should not require any further adjustment or beat-matching after pressing play.
    • It should start locked to the grid from the very beginning.

I don’t see how the two things would be possible at the same time (unless you have perfect timing, in which case no quantising should be necessary).

In other words, the playback would only be instant if you happened to press play exactly at the right time. If your timing is bad (so you need quantise) then the system would have to wait for the next correct grid marker before playing.

Traktor pro work like I’ve suggested.
Start linked to the grid, is not necessary any correction.

Thanks for the suggestion @Gianni_Notarnicola. Can you please try to capture a short video of how this works in Traktor Pro, upload it to your Google Drive/Dropbox, enable sharing permissions, then share a link to the video here? This will really help to communicate your suggestion to the dev team. Thanks!

I agree with my colleague. It’s really annoying at some point the delay in playback and synchronisation. It would be cool to be instant like Traktor.

It would be great if they could do something about it.

Yes this. Locked sync at initial playback. I too desire to use djay in a similar fashion as traktor.

There is play in the tempo at first.

Also I do notice if you loop a track at the very beginning of a track the sync is a little off. I have to move the loop forward to gain locked sync.

Anyone else experiencing this?
