Mac is actually 10.7.4 but the problem I'm having is when I add files and I forget to analyze them before i edit the title it won't analyze them unless I drag it into the player manually. Then when it does analyze the bpm won't show. Also on certain songs that don't show corrupt when I mess with the pitch I'm still getting pops...even when i re download the song. I always notice it on a particular song Geek Squad-I eat the p*ssy.

Hey DJ SL1,

So if i follow it sounds like you are have a few different problems here.

Firstly you should analyzed your new files in offline mode first before playing them or editing them. Sometimes the BPM's don't show up for all files, you can tap them in if you need too. Let me know how you go with this.

Secondly what do you mean by pops? Is this happening only when using the pitch faders? Tell me more about this? Please send me 'I eat the pussy" so i can look into it.

ill send you the song... as far as the bpm not showing up it is when its in offline mode while I'm editing the titles so i have to remember to analyze first before i change anything to do with the title. its sorta like when it used to not show the total length of the song until you played it then it would show...but this just stays no bpm unless i manually put it in...and as far as tapping the beats in I'm not 100 percent sure how to do it i don't want it to calculate wrong...i don't know whether to count the snares bass no idea what to do...

Doesn't look like there is anything missing. All info shows up here. Hmm. Best thing is to tap with the time of the tune one,two,three,four with the timing of it. I'm not sure why there not showing up as they are for me. Remember to analyze your tracks first :)

I seem to have got you confused my problem with that song is a separate issue from bpms not showing up on my computer. The problem with that song is when i mess with the pitch i get a lot of pops... the issue with bpms occurs when i download any song and edit the title before i analyze it. Nothing to do with that particular song. Two separate issues.

O.k issue 1) When you mess with the song you get lots of pops.

1) Maybe check in your SETUP > Hardware > Latency > That your USB Buffer is set between 5 - 15.
Also make sure the quality of your files are above 256kps for high quality performance.

2) I'm not sure why this is happening to you. It might be wise to analyze all your new music before editing. Are you using iTunes also?
