Mixtour Pro settings

[Screma]

Good evening, I bought a Mixtour Pro and am trying to play with DJ Pro tonight.
I’d like to ask a couple of questions that I can’t seem to figure out:

• Is it possible to disable the crossfader and not assign it any functions? I don’t use it, and in fact, it bothers me to risk touching and moving it, potentially affecting the volume.
• I activated the platter protection, but even though it’s on, when I load a track into deck A and start it, and then try to load a track into deck A, instead of telling me that the track is playing and needs to be stopped to load a new track, it stops playback and loads the track.
  A very annoying thing.
• When I load a track and start effect #1 (I can only turn that on), sometimes the effect is audible and sometimes it isn’t. Also, if I put a reverb out, for example, instead of stopping the track, it lowers the volume, but the track playing still plays in the background.
  I’ll start by saying I’m only using headphones to test because I can’t get audio out of my MacBook… Can anyone help me?

I would like to add a video for the effect problem, but I don’t know how to upload it

Is it possible to disable the crossfader and not assign it any functions?

There are two ways to disable the crossfader:

1. In Four Decks view, set the crossfader options from Left/Right to Thru. This is what it looks like in macOS (settings are at the bottom).
   

   

2. Or edit the midi map for your controller and delete the entry for the crossfader.

Thanks again for the help @Michael_Wisniewski! Excellent explanation.

Are you talking about the djay Settings>General>Protect Active Deck?

If so, please note this only protects the Master Deck - the one that is playing through the master audio output. So if your channel fader is down or the Crossfader is on the opposite deck this will not prevent loading. If this is not the case, can you please capture and share a short video of the issue? Thanks.
