Running serato DJ pro 64bit. i5 processor and 8gb ram. Windows 10 pro.

Using on Saturday night no issues what so ever. Ra. Fine. Although the CPU meter in serato was almost full into red all night .

Yet using task manager the CPU checked at several intervals In Evening didn't go above 15 ish percent..

Find pic attached Dropbox link showing CPU 13% yet serato meter full in red.

Ami reading this wrong.. never happened on serato DJ.. very odd.

I have discovered the same exact phenomenon.

In previous iterations of Serato DJ, the CPU meter in Windows was always dead-on. In SDJ Pro, it can be grossly off. My Windows laptop is just a clean installation of Windows 10 Pro and Serato DJ Pro 2.0.1. No other software.

Serato typically uses about 15-18% of the total CPU usage, and all together, my laptop will be using about 28% CPU in total (lappy also has dedicated GeForce video). The CPU meter in SDJ Pro shows 50 to 75% usage most of the time. It's a bit odd, because it was very low, matching up to usage statistics in 1.9.x and lower. Definitely a bug of some sort.

I'm also having the same issue with DJ Pro. Except when the meter on the top left reaches about 75%, I get audio drop outs. The wave on the track disappears and the audio is lost. This will go on for about 20 to 30 seconds, and everyone knows in our line of work... That is very bad.......
I've done all of the suggested PC optimizations. Did the Latencymon sent that in. Which in Latency mon it states ( your system appears to be suitable for handling real-time audio and other tasks without dropouts. )

issues are all about troubleshooting and trying different things to resolve it, in saying that do u mind just installing the 32bit version and trying it out and see if the problem still persist.

Im using a MBP & I have experienced this. The CPU level indicator also remains frozen at peak(red) whenever I analyze 50+ mp3 files. I have reported this to Serato & have an open HELP ticket. I also have a video of it on dropbox.
