I did 2 gigs this past weekend and both nights I lose my latency.
Friday night I was audio recording my set and about 45 mins in to it I heard a few audio dropouts. Then I noticed my latency was way off.

Saturday night, almost same thing except that I was not recording and there were no noticeable audio dropouts.

To fix this problem I move my USB Buffer Size (Latency) slider up one notch, then back and click apply.

Hey 506,

This is a known issue with SDJ. You found the only known workaround for the time being.
If this is hindering your performance I would suggest using Scratch Live for now.

~ Ok, but will I have to roll back my firmware for my Rane 62?

No.. not if you've updated to the latest driver/firmware. It is backwards compatible.

Can you at least provide an idea as to way this is happening? The workaround is a blessing. . .but Im trying real hard to stick with DJ and not go back to SL
