SERATO 4.0 Search Results lagging

Dj cuervo 1:06 AM - 16 December, 2025
There is a lag in showing the results in Serato 4.0. This slows down my workflow. I don't use playlists. I search mostly for my songs from the all crate. I have a large library, but this was not a problem in the previous version.

EXACTLY MY ISSUE AND I DID SCAN MY WHOLE LIBRARY

Hate it! Spinning record...

3.5.5 was instant. Why?

Obv some of the changes made to the library are buggy. Not gonna kill anyone to wait for a 4.1 or whatever the next major revision is.

Experiencing the same.

Search result is now slower than before.

The lag is a serious issue - especially for open format DJs that play dynamically. That half a second can be the difference between you changing your mind and catching the phrasing right, or missing your mix point entirely. I hope they address this in the next update.

Even in 4.0.1 the lag is still present which I don't understand there's a bloatware in the program that eat the processing and with the apple silicon shouldn't be happening since they said it was optimize for it.

On PC the 4.0.1 search results seem faster than the ever were before

Here at MacBookPro M1 and internal SSD and 4.01 search is very fast- no lags (12.000 Tracks)
