I think that's a good compromise, although that solution doesn't work for people who use bus outs or deck outs. But I honestly don't think it's too much to ask that the user pause a deck before loading a new track, since the new loaded track doesn't start playing by default anyway. I've done plenty of track previewing without a preview deck, and I never felt slowed down by having to press pause before loading the next track. > > > > Kind regards, > > > Daniel > > > > > > > 2014-07-08 2:54 GMT+02:00 Owen Williams <owilli...@mixxx.org>: > That's a pretty good use-case, but I would strongly argue that > we should > fix the preview deck instead of keeping this feature.
