Hey eric g,

Thanks for getting in touch with us here at Serato HQ. The Cue Button will set the Temp Cue for the track, if you wish to set Hot Cues, you will need to press the Hot Cue buttons on the side of each deck.

Cheers

Hey Ericg,

Have you tried updating the firmware for your Pioneer DDJ-S1?

Cheers

I've actually had this happen to me, as well, but on the left side. Here is a video to (kind of ) show what I'm talking about:

Video has no sound, but you can see that the Blue Play Button (in Serato DJ) that looks to be triggering once I hit the play button on the SZ, but the song doesn't start at all. The platter indicator doesn't start either. The unit is patched with the latest firmware.

Have had the same issue with the DDJ-SX on the left deck intermittently over the last couple months. To get it to stop, I have to eject/clear the deck, then reload the track.

As DJCASE mentioned, the software reflects proper response to the controller by visually triggering the onscreen play button... but no track response. (Latest firmware and software versions installed to date.)
