YOUR QUESTION:

  1. When using the Magic Keyboard with Caps Lock on, Djay Pro stops responding to the arrow keys used to load tracks onto the deck, and the space bar fails to trigger playback; everything only starts working again after I turn Caps Lock off. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
3

sounds like it’s sending a midi signal that switches the default keyboard shortcut in djay settings. While ON and acting up, toggle “Enable keyboard shortcut” on and off, or swap the setting from Open Format DJ to Default, and see if that resolves it

Hello! It’s been a week since my last reply. I’m going to consider this topic completed for now so I can focus on others. However, please feel free to respond and we can definitely revisit this. Thanks!

Could you make a video on how to do this part, please?

Thanks for your help, but in my case—an iPad Pro—this option isn’t available.

Hi @MarcosAraujo, on iPad, Caps Lock is a system-level language switch by default, which may be what’s intercepting the key input. Try turning it off in iPadOS: Settings > General > Keyboard > Hardware Keyboard > Switch Languages using Caps Lock (off). If that switch isn’t there, go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Keyboards and remove any extra language keyboards so only your main one remains.

Could you also fill in your iPadOS version and djay version? That’ll help narrow it down if the above doesn’t do it. Thanks!
