Having similar problem same OS. Drops now longer than before but only happen when you first enable the Fx for that channel.

I had my friend bring his Mac Book Pro over to see if I can replicate the issue with his computer and I couldn't. I worked without any glitches. I also put a latency checker program on laptop and it was going into the red because of my wifi. So disabled my wifi and let program run for 2 min and it ran without going into the red at all with me using serato dj with ddj sx. When audio drop out happened the software still showed green on the latency checker. So i dont think its the latency.

You problem may be that your processor speed is out of the Serato DJ spec...

Serato Dj requires 2.4 Ghz or higher processor, you are running a 1.8Ghz

"64 bit: Intel 2.4 Ghz Core 2 Duo"

Do you know anyone that has higher processor with the same 64bit windows 7 to test with ?

^ not at all dude.. he's running an i7, not a Core 2 Duo. That frequency of 2.4ghz is in reference to the older Penryn Intel processors.

I had the same problem my speakers keep dropping out not good so how can it be fixed it just stared yesterday with the new update plus I had a alarm sound coming out of my speakers.

if you're old 1.1.1 was ok then why not roll back to that...i'm just gonna test 1.1.2 right now and see how it performs...

the i-7 is a good cpu. but i'd suggest to anyone serious about DJing,please buy a Mac and you're problems will go down to almost zero,it's worth the money,prices have gone down anyway...

i use my Windows desktop for anything else though.but for DJing,i and many others went through a whole lot with windows.

I Started with a windows platform laptop and the issues are unpredictable due to the way the processes are implemented in the software.

Switch to Mac for Djing & you'll thank me later.For anything else,office,gaming i got my windows desktop for that.

I was still having issues with the 1.1.1 . Im trying to sell this sony laptop and get a mac book pro right now. Thanks

YEAH SELL SELL SELL...lol

you're worries/problems are going to almost zero with a mac...get a 15 with a dedicated video card if you want to do video too...

But you'll see what i'm telling you when you switch over :-)

good luck.

Will the serato video work with a imac with a intel video 4000 card?

try this one instead store.apple.com

...the intel 4000 is just basic...but get a macbook pro or I-Mac with an Nvidia video card (Mid 2012)

you can even by refurb and save tons of money....i haven't had any issues with them

or get a laptop instead which is easier to transport...

i'm getting this one in 2 weeks store.apple.com.

the GT 650M is a beast...it can even handle serious video editing/gaming...it has GTX specs when you look closer....but you'll be happier DJing with a Mac

Zdevil350,
Apple's refurb program is nice because the laptops are in near mint condition and you get a 1 yr warranty and can add apple care if you want anytime during the first year. It will also save some money. Apple updates their site every night so don't be discouraged if you don't see a laptop with the specs your looking for.

Just picking up on this by the above poster 'Boogie Down'
The latter part about the alarm sound coming out of speakers. Is it related to mine?
I also get audio dropouts but not when playing with the FX. My dropouts happen randomly when not even touching the SX
