Help with XDJ RX2 and rekordbox dmx lighting
Hi everyone.
I just got my XDJ RX-2 and am having a lot of issues with it off the bat.
1. how do I turn off the nearest beat feature? For example, I set a hot cue point in a track and it doesn't start exactly where I put it.
2. How do I add beatgrid lines on the XDJ RX-2 screen? I've tried checking settings and nothing is there to adjust the beatgrid lines.
3. How do I play spotify and itunes music through rekordbox? Whenever rekordbox is running and I play a song on spotify/itunes, it makes this extremely annoying buzzing sound and it buffers.
DMX lighting questions
1. How do I adjust my hotcues with midi editor to create a blackout effect for my lights?
I have tried doing this but it gives me no option to select which deck I want to have the hotcue on.
Also, how do I change up my scenes for lighting to make them look different? I tried dragging new lighting scenes but it's not working.

Also, is there any way to make a song automatically have a hotcue that starts at the beginning of a track? that would be super helpful
Hold the track selector knob down, while the waveform of a track is visible, to adjust gridding.
I remapped the "slip loop" pad functions in midi mode to control all of my lighting overrides.
Rekordbox has "PadFX" 1-16 on both decks mapped to the slip loop pads by default, so delete all of those first, and then add and learn all of your lighting commands. They are not deck 1/2 dependent, so I did all of my color overrides and a blackout/master off on deck 1 pads 1-8, and scene/energy/strobe on deck 2 pads 1-8, and everything is working very well, regardless of which track is playing.
Everything else you are asking about is possible through RB and is not XDJ-RX2 specific, so watch some of the great youtube videos that are already out there.
