I remember reading that SL will automatically disable the key lock feature when you start to scratch however I'm unsure if this is happening on mine.

Is the key symbol supposed to actually turn itself off when this is happening or does it just sort of disable in the background?

I like to keep keylock on when I'm mixing but when I want to scratch there still seems to be that little bit more latency until I manually uncheck the keylock icon.

Maybe there is a preference somewhere that I don't know about to switch auto disable on?

Cheers,

Jonny

yes, mine stays highlighted while I scratch.

if i remember correctly, it disengages in the background once your pitch goes past either +50% or -30%
