XDJ-R1 USB swap during play?
How do you switch USBs during play? ie. I just finish my set and the next DJ is going on with his music on USB. Don't tell me there is now way of doing this besids stopping the music. This is primarily why I got this unit and figured that would be a no brainer. Any suggestions please. Can't seem to find any info on how to do this. Thanks

It depends on how the USB-Stick is used:
A) USB-Stick is inserted in the mixer
The mixers usually have a short memory which preload the selected song. So if you put off the USB-Stick, the last track will run till end. From my experience, I can advice you to do not put off the stick before the last 3min of the track.
B) Two USB-Sticks, both in separate CD-Player:
Just say the DJ after you, whick player are not using.
There is only one USB slot and no short term memory for transfers except a short sampling loop. Looks like there needs to be two forms of media input to transition sets using USB. I can't see any other way around it.
I use a CD between the change
R0ll it, like this video, not for long loop, but not bad
