Serato's Smart Sync turning off is not the same as using Mixxx's one-time sync. When the deck transport is manipulated with Serato's Smart Sync, Serato will still manipulate the tempo of all synced decks together, including when the beatgrid of the master track has been manually set to a non

In such cases a one-time sync is easy if the sync button simply toggles master sync on each push. Just press the sync button again to turn off master sync for that deck immediately after turning master sync on. Have you tried playing this way? Does it work well for you? Admittedly if you are

The use case is, if you have non const beat grid in the master deck. In this case the follower deck tries to follow this, which can sound funny. So in this case you want just adopt the tempo one time to start the transition and after that you have not think any longer about it. I think it depends
