Freezing Error "Invalid operation. In Sync Mode, tempo slider is only available for master deck"

I use a DDJ FLX6, windows 11, and I just recently started getting this error. It freezes rekordbox for about 3 seconds. Not sure why this is happening, I'm not even touching the non-master tempo slider and this still happens. Anyone have any ideas how to resolve this?

You may have the computer recognizing incoming signal from the DDJ as unintended input - try swapping the USB cable or USB port.

Thank you, gonna try that, so far I haven't gotten any good advice anywhere that I've posted this problem.

The reason the message appears is you have one deck as the master and the other deck pitch fader is moving; that signal says "Hey, I want to change pitch" but the software says "No; you're not the master deck" so the alert is shown. The unexpected signal is often due to a bad USB cable / not providing adequate power to the DDJ, so start with that, but if you have any other questions or troubles with it. please file an inquiry ticket here and our support team will gather some additional information to assist you in resolving this issue.
