Crossfading Lagging Serato
SO I saw this very interesting problem in Serato while I was working last night.
I have a wonderfully awesome and clean (dedicated) Macbook Pro for DJing. It is completely void of anything other than Serato. When I am DJing and I start cutting one channel very quickly, and I mean very very quick cutting (like a transform type cut) with the fader, the visual representation of the waveforms on Serato seem to lag, a lot.
I believe the problem lies within the "history" function of 1.9.2. If registers whether the song was played on the left or right deck, and I believe that every time I do a quick cut, Serato tries to log that as a "switch" of songs, or decks, thereby slowing down the visual waveforms.
I could be wrong, but this is what I think. It is really quite annoying that it would do that when I am just cutting with the crossfader, and not even though the record.

does it sound ok tho?
cause if so, i have a question... why do you need to look at the waveform while cutting?

again.... why are you looking at the waveform whilst cutting?

Nothing wrong with that... I look at it occasionally to see where Im at on the wave form. I have also caught the sound not coming thru correctly when the wave form is jumpy.

yep, i'm not looking at the waveform, it's just something I noticed. It sounds fine, but sometimes the sound does skip a little.
I'm just saying that the Serato Team should take a look at it, it could be something that could be causing, or cause, an overload in serato that could possibly lead to instability problems in the future.

it would be serato, not rane... the fader is working, the software is lagging.
that said, i dont think its a problem...

the screen can only refresh at a certain rate - no mater what you are going to be able to cut faster then the refresh rate

It also took me a while to narrow this down.
This should have been fixed in 2.0, which is in Public Beta testing currently.

Ain't it the WORST feeling in the world to have a problem and no one else seems to have it?
Glad its been confirmed.
