Topic: 2 deck skin loading into deck 3

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Just happen a couple of times, but whilst running through songs at home I'm getting tracks loading into deck 3 whilst on a 2 deck skin.

Using Fruit's skin on 2 deck format, no controller, no funky ONINT entries or mapping of keyboard.

I was double tapping to load songs and space bar to play. Took me a minute to figure out where the music was coming from.

It's happened 3 times but I can seem to intentionally recreate it, any ideas?

Tracks will always load to Decks 1 and 2 if all the following are true. ...
- Your controller is a 2 Decks one (in case you use one).
- Your skin is declared as 2 decks (with nbdecks="2" in the xml - not sure about the Fruit skin)
- You havent switched to a 4 Decks skin and back to the 2 Decks one.

Hi Bigchap, I've had this happen as well, I found out that using the tab key cycles thru all 4 decks on fruits skin, even when in 2 deck mode. And sometimes with double clicking to load it will throw a song onto deck 3 or 4. At least if you know why it's happening it's easy to avoid, I always turn the faders on 3 & 4 down at the start of a session.
best wishes

Spot on Ray! I had the tab button mapped with Bomes midi translator for another program as a test key. Thanks for that.
