Audio Drop on Search
 
Just in case someone is still struggling with audio drop out. I upgraded to 5.08 about a month ago and then 5.09 when it came out. I've been struggling with audio dropout ever since. I thought I'd post what finally got rid of mine. I had tried everything I could imagine and everything I could find on this forum. It always happened on a search. I thought I was going to have to upgrade to a faster computer. I've been using the Dell Vostro 1500 for years. It's Core 2 Duo 1.6ghz with Nvidia Geforce 8400m GS. and 2.5gb of RAM.

Long story short, today I thought I'd see what the tempo change feature was like. Well, guess what. My audio dropout went away when I enabled it.

Anybody have an idea why??

Thanks for posting your findings it might help someone else.
I believe they use different audio players, from my understanding with the tempo mode off it uses the old player, they developed a new player for the Tempo activated side.
I'm somewhat surprised as I have an old XP computer that struggles a bit with the tempo side but runs great when in normal play mode so I just use it as a backup.

It has a lot to do with "Latency", which is the delay time between when a computer reads an audio file and the time it is actually heard. Many things going on in the computer increase or decrease latency, including all the drivers in the computer. Dell is notorious to the point where some DJ's consider them useless for "complete" DJ'ing.

Thanks Roy amd Bryant for your replies. I too would have expected it to be just the opposite. That's pretty much why I left it disabled. Can either of you go a little bit more into the audio players and the difference between the two?

Not the one who programmed them and fit the subroutines into the overall program, really couldn't tell you. Only the programmers would have the specifics on that.
