TS Pro - Pops and clicks, Screen BMP not following CDJ tempo

Hi
Just wondering if anyone is having this same problem, when playing on Scatch Pro original 320K mp3 tracks seem to have pops and clicks, these are only heard when using Scratch Pro and not when the track is played back on any other media player, at first i thought it was due to my 4 month old laptop not having enough RAM so went out and spand £750 on a new laptop with 3GB of RAM, the problem is still there! I'm a bit worried as I've just bought Scratch Pro for £500, so thats a total of £1250 for something thats not working right!
I bought this to move away from CD's but find I have to use CD's to get the quality.

Also the BPM does not change on the screen when I speed up or slow down the track using the tempo control on the CDJ800 even though you can hear the track change speed!

This next one might not be a problem but just something I'm doing wrong, when trying to Sync on certain tracks it seems to jump 3 or 4 beats rather than locking on to the one closest, so the beats become Sync'd but the track is out of time so sounds crap!

Any help on these topics would be great!

I find you get more help from these forums than actually contacting NI support team!

Cheers

Welcome To The Forum.
Firstly the pops and clicks are a know bug caused by the KeyLock. This is being fixed in the next Update (check this: http://www.native-instruments.com/forum/showthread.php?t=72703 ). Make sure you update when this is available. (no release date for this so dont ask)

Until the update try changing your Keylock settings and latency settings, this will help and may actually cure it for you.

Have you got Master Tempo On the cdjs. Turn it off.

Read The Manual about setting Beat Grids and Manual BPM setting. You must grid your tracks if you want them to be super tight when Synced. You may have to set the BPM manually.
Its far easier for you to read about Sync than it is for me to write about it.



Now ive welcomed you i can tick you off for double posting. Post only one thread please .

 

Cheers Karlos, I'll try that, looking forward to the update!

Thanks again
