What's the rush? You need to upgrade your os instantly for what reason ?

And why would Serato test on a beta?

Serato still has known issues with Mavericks & Yosemite and you expect them to put a working version with El Capitan? Good luck!
I will update the date it's out, but for SDJ still gonna use 1.8.5 on a bootable stick.

Had tried out the El Capitan betas..

I had been getting increased performance from SDJ from each OS beta update.

Serato can't start testing/developing code on a moving target.

I'm sure they have done testing on El Capitan but serious regression testing and updates won't start until the public version is released.

I think pioneer have stated that they won't be testing until the public version is released.

it is better to be thought a fool than to open ya bloodclot mouth and prove it.

i just though by now they would say something about pdidy one love your ass

how is serato dj working with 10.11.5? scared to update now

I'm a bit jittery on the update too, although I've been on 10.11.4 and with the exception of a MBP usb power issue and Serato Video, things have been all good, so bite the bullet and go for it or chicken out?

Haha, you are going to bite the bullet, or you're asking me to?

May have to paper, rock, scissors you for that one.

better do not update to 10.11.5, all of the latest versions of SDJ crash at start

Depending on your hardware:

I'm on 10.11.5 with no problems. On the SRT, SZ and 57mkII.

No crashes (startup or running) at all

It crahes even with no hardware connected unfortunately

lol, I choose rock :D

10.11.5 is running fine with my Rane 62 (mid 2014 mbp)

I updated to El Capitan (10.11.5) with my 2015 MBP, Rane 62 and SDJ 1.9.1

HORRIBLE!!!

After 45-60 mins the latency was WAY off and I was getting audio dropouts.

I rebooted and turned my USB Buffer from 1ms (which I ran fine for years) to 10ms.

I STILL got audio dropouts.

Sadly for me I did not do a Time Machine backup before upgrading. I usually just backup my personal files.

So I resorted to partitioning my drive and installing Yosemite. Everything is flawless with Yosemite.

As DJ506 just said..

I am having the same problem too.. I am getting latency after 25 - 30mins of playing then dropouts, then everything just stops working all together.. Songs stops, Fans running very hight.. It did this with Yosemite too thus why I upgraded to El Capitan.. I have no clue what the problem is.. Can someone lend a helping hand?

Late 2011 MBP | OS X 10.11.5 w. 16Gb Memory | Serato 1.9.1 | Pioneer DJM S9 1.06

The issue that i am having with 1.9.1 is that when i open SDJ, it does NOT connect to my Rane Sixty-Two mixer. Sometime even gives me an error messages. My only solution is to quit SDJ, twice in some occasions so it can finally connect with the mixer. Only at this time can i proceed and begin with my set. Its so annoying. Has anyone figured out what is wrong and how can it be fixed?

I followed all the Rane step recommendations twice. Erased SSL and all the older versions of SDJ. Still No luck. If i have a lag of any kind, its usually the 1st or second track, which is not that bad as i have a change to restart SDJ and continue with my set(s) with no problem after that. Just the start up sucks.

Since i purchase my Mid 2014 15"MBP, i have never had a single problem until i update to El Capitan. So i recommend everyone that hasn't done the upgrade to hold off until all these little issues are fixed.

Here are my computer specs:
MBP Retina 15-inch, Mid 2014
OSX 10.11.5
Processor: 2.5ghz intel Core i7
Memory: 16gb 1600 mhz ddr3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048MB

Mixer: Rane Sixty-two update core audio driver 2.0.0b3
Serato DJ: 1.9.1

Odd def not happening to me on Yosemite which you said had the same problem. My gigs with the S9 have been great. Are you using an external?

No, all my music are on the laptops HDD (750 Mb) Still got lots of space left too.. I have no clue what's going on 😩

seems like some kind of megalatency is back on 10.11.5?

I've been on 10.11.5 for over a week on the SRT, SZ & 57mkII. No latency problems on my end

After seeing some of the below posts, I think it is better that neither of us update until at least a few more people report no problems. Weird that there is no official comment from Serato yet?

I have actually been using Rekordbox instead because I picked up a 900NXS2

here we go again...has anyone updated to Mac OS X 10.11.6? reports?

i was having problems with mine as well cause my new MacBook had the drop outs left and right. temporarily used my older MacBook till I found a fix. so to fix it I had to download the RC (Release Candidate) drivers for my SL4 box

support.serato.com

the driver is actually included for some devices (see article) but for everyone else it will say if there is a newer driver for it or now

Just updated to OS X to 10.11.6 from 10.11.3 and SDJ from 1.8.2 to 1.9.1. Ran a full audio set on 2012 MBP with 1 for my USB buffer with no dropouts or issues. Testing with ME tomorrow. Pioneer DDJ-SR with latest firmware.
