Has anyone else had issues with pitch controls on the latest release of VDJ?? Everything was fine for the first few weeks using the new version. Now all of the sudden my right player loads fine but when I play the track it jumps to a random pitch anywhere from a few BPM faster/slower to full on +10 or more. I didn't see any other threads related to this on any of the recent releases or to VDJ itself without a controller. I have a brand new mac book pro 2.3ghz processor with 8gb ram and version 7.04 VDJ Pro

You may have turned on 'smart play' - It's the small padlock above the PLAY button on the default VirtualDJ v7 skin. If it's lit orange, click on it to turn it off.
Or beatlock is turned on (SYNC button on the default skins is lit permanently.) In earlier versions of the software, this was mapped to 'B' by default and was easy to trigger by accident. It is now mapped to SHIFT+B by default. If it's on, turn it off by pressing its shortcut. If it's mapped to B then you should change its key via CONFIG -> Mappers -> Keyboard to SHIFT+B to avoid accidental triggering.
When loading a song, by default the BPM will be matched with the other deck. If you are using an external MIDI controller, this will mean that the pitch slider will no-longer respond until you move it to the correct position as indicated on the on-screen skin. If you prefer to manually beat match, disable the following in CONFIG -> Options: Auto Pitch Matching and Pitch Reset on Load
You can turn off smart play, smart cue and beatlock by mapping a key to the follows:
smart_play off & smart_cue off & beatlock off
This will turn off the auto beat matching features for the current selected deck (Press TAB to choose) when you press it.

That is Exactly what I did, must have hit that by mistake when going for the play button one time, because it didn't do that when I first installed the upgrade. Thank you so much for the reply, it has been driving me crazy LOL.
