Yes, in fact the BPM normally doesn't change, even when the pitch does
change
as I move the pitch on the CDJ up and down.

When I say it's wonky I mean the pitch fader in the GUI goes up and
down. I don't remember if the BPM went up and down with it, I'll check
though.

I am pretty sure it was off.

I don't get stuttering when not using vinyl control.
This is from memory when I tested it a week or two ago on 1.9.0. I
need to check agan.

Nope, In the Raleigh office. But I will be at our annual Summit
