    Hello guys, I bought brand new S4 MK3, connected to my MacBook Air (2020, Intel) with macOS Big Sur. But when I do anything on the MK3 (load track, effect, start/stop, change volume…anything where I am using the buttons in MK3), there is about 0.5 sec delay till this changes are made on the MacBook Air display (in Traktor 3 software). I have no issue with the sound lag, but the viewing of "what I did on MK3" (visual issue).

    Do you have any idea why this happening? Before that I had S2 mixer and Traktor 2 on the same laptop and there was no issue.

    It's definitely Big Sur. Seeing the same thing here.

    Yeah Big Sur is causing the issues with Latency. Between that and the Turntable mode concerns I havent upgraded the OS yet. Hopefully they resolve it soon

    It is for sure Bug Sur, I have not updated my MacBook pro and it is fine on that.

    Catalina decks A and B track decks C and D remix decks
    Beat sync enabled gets massive cpu spike or sometimes just total eratic behaviour of jog wheels (tt mode) when you touch jogs A or B when its master. When this happens jog wheel latency its totally off until you can get it to mess up again and it resets itself. Just pointing out (again) there is and has always been an issue with tt mode and jog wheels.

    I don't know the reason for the latency, but I was able to resolve it this morning by upgrading to the MacOS v11.2 beta, and installing the latest public beta release of Traktor 3 (build 3.4.1.x). I've had several hours of playback today with no issue.
