Hey Karon,

Could I please have your computers full specs and a list of all USB devices connected? Does this happen with all tracks or only certain ones? If only certain tracks, what makes them different? Where are they stored? What format are they?

Are you able to open Serato DJ without the controller connected? If so hold COMMAND (mac) / CTRL (pc) and click on the analyse files button. This will force the program to analyse your entire library. Once this is done remove any files which are corrupt, they have a lightning bolt icon in the first column of the library panel.

Now try and connect your controller, does this help?

So Serato DJ crashed when analyzing files? Is that right?

Let me know.
