than a manufacters defect.
No it is a manufacturing defect, although very slight. The center of the push button is not exactally in the middle, so to get a bypass you need to hit the top left of the button. If i hit the middle then it might not deploy.
It's not at all about being familiar with the unit. It's about adapting to the off-center button.
I think its just my unit... if my supplier has more inventory then i will replace it, otherwise i'll just live with it, since the unit itself is great.

Mine kinda did that out of the box with the tap tempo button..
I just messed with it for a little bit....I just tapped it like I would if I was mixing. Now its fine. Maybe it gets "off center" during shipping...

I just re-checked mine and, as I mentioned previously, what
you are experiencing, does not apply to mine.
I don't know if its because I'm more heavy handed or what,
but, no issues with mine.

May as well drop this in here than make a new thread:
Pioneer EFX-500 vs EFX-1000.
Is the 1000 really worth it? Is it that much better?

CDJ1 -> Alesis1 -> CD1 Input
CDJ2 -> Alesis2 -> CD2 Input
CDJ3 -> Alesis3 -> CD3 Input
I was thinking about doing something like you wanted as well.
But, I didn't like how the CD's output would overdrive the
Alesis input.
