Yes it should work fine as it meets the min requirements ------>serato.com

you Should Get A 2010 Mac Book Pro i5 or i7 Becouse Core 2 Duo Is A Problams With Serato Dj There Cpu Problams.

Thanks! graet to hear..



you know it from your experience or youve heard it?

i can also buy MacBook Pro mid 2009 15.1' 4gb 2.53ghz Intel core duo 2 500gb

Let's say you may want to use that Pitch N Time plug in in SDJ...Serato suggests an i5 or i7 CPU to run it, an core2duo is not gonna do that with this plug in.

i bought mid 2012 I've problems cause I'm new at mac so its not fun
thanks all :)

PnT worked fine for me on my 2009 2.66 Core2Duo on 1.6, but 1.6.1 was a different story. Anyway, upgraded to an i7

Late 2008 MacBook Pro, Core 2 Duo 2.6ghz 4GB RAM no problems at all with pitch n time

On a mid 2010 Mac Pro Core Duo 2.4Ghz i run PnT at 5ms with no problems, i'll be getting an I5 with maxed Ram soon

- 2007 MacBook Pro 2.33 GHZ Core 2 Duo 15" 4 GB RAM 320 GB HDD - Runs SDJ fine with Pitch N Time. Buffer set at 5 MS - Lags sometimes (rarely but no crashes or dropouts)

- 2012 MacBook Pro 2.9 GHZ Dual Core i7 13" 8 GB RAM 750 GB HDD - Runs SDJ fine with Pitch N Time. Buffer set at 2 MS - Red Light comes on SOMETIMES but never any dropouts or lag

- 2012 MacBook Pro 2.9 GHZ Dual Core i7 13" 16 GB RAM 512 GB SSD - Runs SDJ fine with Pitch N Time. Buffer set at 2 MS - No red light ever but it comes when I go to 1 MS.

- 2013 MacBook Pro 2.7 GHZ Quad Core i7 15" 16 GB RAM 512 GB SSD - Runs SDJ fine at 1 ms. Red light comes on (rarely but it does come on) but never any dropouts or lag. Never had a crash to date.


All these run SDJ via external HDD. The 2007 uses WD, Segate, or toshiba while the rest use a thunderbolt Lacie.


Oh yeah I have 2 windows PC's One runs SDJ like crap the other not so bad but tons of lag as most PC's do.

I can't even get perfect (1 ms) with my two i7's so I am not sure if i5 will cut it. You will have to have buffer set at 5 ms still I would think. If it takes SSD & 16 GB of RAM to get an i7 running properly (no CPU light) at 2 ms I would imaging an i5 would not be capable at same settings......................... but who knows.

Yeah i've reconsidered and decided to chase after an I7....maybe even a quad core if i afford it.

Oh Also just making sure are we talking about SDJ buffer at 1ms and Rane System Panel at 5ms right? And all above stats listed above are with Rane panel ms measurements with SDJ buffer at 1?

Yes SDJ buffer at 1.

cool i can't wait to do further testing, i just came up on an I7 with an SSD and 2.66 processor for a pretty darn good price. Once it gets here i'll throw 16gb of ram in it and see what happens. I'm expecting even better because i made SDJ work with PnT on regular core 2 duo at 2.4ghz.

also for ike scratch routines i turn PnT off because drags should change pitch and PnT kinda defeats the purpose of that. i have the PnT buttons linked to my Dicers for a quick switch,

i meant 8Gb of Ram......

If it helps anyone, here are my observations in regards to MacBook Pro 10.9.2, PnT and USB Buffer latency:

serato.com

You will throw in 8 GB of RAM? Is there only 4 installed or something? Also if you are upgrading why not just go for the 16?

If it's not a 2013 Mac, you can throw 16gb of ram in the but it can only use 8gb.

It can SEE the whole 16 but still, it can only USE 8.

yeah originally i meant 8GB overall instead of the stock 4. I did get the I7 with SSD drive and 2.66ghz. On the lowest setting i get the occaisional red light especially during a beat juggle but in all honesty i think it's a bug because no audio glitches occur at all.

Sorry guy s i Got 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo years 2010
Memory GB 1067 MHz DDR3 lion 10.7.2

i just got SDJ and after i used Rane SL3 Very happy with turnatable i buy Reelop mat8...
Disaster can put 4 decks or even two USB DROP OUT... some one can help me.

You basically need a new computer. And latest os

I have that same 13" 2010 macbook pro 2.4 GHz..... Your dropouts should go away if you, put your usb buffer at 2ms and your screen refresh at 20.... also make sure blue tooth and wifi is OFF.. its working fine for me!.... I use a Numark NS7

I do have 8GB of ram though

As long as you have the correct OS then you will be fine.

I have a Macbook Pro from 2010 and i had to install mac os x 10.7 (Maverick i think they call it) to be able to run Serato DJ 1.7

Best of luck to ya

I'm pretty sure SDJ supports ALL Mac OS's above Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.

I have no issues on any of my MacBook Pro's which are both 10.8 & 10.9. Also whichever OS you go with it MUST be the latest release in order to be officially supported.

i will try now... thanck s guy s.

SDJ 1.7 has dropped support for snow leopard so you'll have to upgrade to mavericks if you want to use the latest version (1.7) older versions are okay i think.

NOT true bud. Gotta check the minimum specs and you may understand. They aren't saying the ONLY support Mavericks. They are simply saying they no longer support Snow Leopard is all.

Mac OS X 10.7
Mac OS X 10.8
Mac OS X 10.9 2

is what they DO support and ONLY one of them (10.9.2) is Mavericks. Hope that clears some things up for you not that this is worded any different from the first post. Like I also said I literally HAVE MacBooks running 10.8 as in ....................................... this is NOT a guess.

Check the SDJ 1.7 Minimum requirements like I said though if you choose not to believe me serato.com

10.7.2 2.4 Ghz core 2 core 8 GB ... not work with
serato dj RELOOP 8
it drops out every single track ... its a fact.
just spent 250 Euro to reinstall and put 4 Giga Ram ... useless
Very disapointed

Repair permissions and check so that nothing else is running in the background if you have problems. Worth a try and should be done anyway.

FYI I am guessing you are using a 64 bit OS which means you are at ABSOLUTE bottom for supported processors. Your processor is not supported by Pitch n Time or Serato Video either as both demand more.

Again this is as per minimum requirements on the page serato.com

ok buy new mac
