Tempo Blend CFX not working

**

YOUR QUESTION:

I am using djay Pro on iPad and after the latest update I lost an essential feature that is extremely important for my DJ workflow.

Before the update, it was possible to have a smooth, continuous tempo adjustment (BPM interpolation) while slowly moving the crossfader from Deck A to Deck B.

Example:
Deck A is playing at 98 BPM and Deck B at 103 BPM. When slowly moving the crossfader from left to right, the tempo would gradually and smoothly change until it perfectly matched the BPM of the new track.

An important part of this behavior was that the tempo did not remain permanently locked, but behaved naturally according to the mix — creating a musical and fluid transition.

Since the latest update, this behavior no longer works. The tempo now remains fixed after syncing, even when moving or reversing the crossfader.

I have already checked all sync settings (BPM only, BPM + Beat, Sync on/off, crossfader options, etc.), but the previous behavior cannot be restored.

This feature was not a side effect for me, but a deliberately used creative mixing tool.

Is there a hidden setting, a workaround, or any plan to reintroduce this classic crossfader tempo behavior as an optional feature?

Hi @Mathis, welcome to the Community! Please see the 2 settings options below:

Yes, I changed it, no difference

Please share the full details about your setup:

Device Model (ex. 2020 iPad Air 4th Gen):
Version of operating system (ex. iOS 17.3.1):
Version of djay (ex. 5.1.3):
Hardware/controllers used (ex. Reloop Ready):

Since this sounds repeatable, can you please capture and share a short video of the issue to help clarify what’s happening? Thanks!

Device Model : IPad 9.Generation
Version of operating system: 18.1.1
Version of djay 5.6
Hardware/controllers used DDJ-200

However, I’m not able to send a video because I’m “ a new user”

So I’m very sorry, but thanks for your help. I hope you can do something with my infos

Thanks. I’ve updated you to Basic User. You can upload a video now.

As you see, the BPM int going with the crossfade like before the update…

Thanks for the video. Please make sure both of these toggles are turned on then test again.

That was the problem. Thank you very much. You’re saving my week
