Hi @aum235, welcome to the Community! Thanks for the detailed feedback. I will share these with our devs. However, if you want any of them to gain traction, it’s best to create an individual topic for each suggestion so other users can upvote it and I can properly track it. I also recommend that you first search the existing Suggestions section to see if you can find any that are closely related to yours. If so, post your comment there and add your vote to the existing ones. I hope that helps!

**Regarding #1** , there’s an existing Suggestion that you can upvote below:

> [@Instant Grid-Aligned Playback](https://community.algoriddim.com/t/instant-grid-aligned-playback/34060):
>
> 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.

**Regarding #2** , this is normal behaviour in djay and other non-Traktor software. I experienced the same thing when I migrated from Traktor to djay many years ago. You’ll get used to the new behaviour pretty quickly.

**Regarding #3** , can you please share some specific example songs that we can check on our end?

**Regarding #4** , please submit and official support request using the link below so we can check for any djay crash reports:

**Regarding #5** , there are lots of UI customization options available. I recommend you experiment to find something to your liking and closer to what you are used to.

> djay offers multiple deck views so you can choose the layout that best fits your style, needs, and setup. You can switch between different deck views using the View Modes dropdown menu.

**Regarding #6** , these are already MIDI mappable:
