Bluetooth audio devices are neither recommended nor supported for audio output due to latency and the fact it would require multiple audio outputs. Please consider using a direct-wired connection for all audio devices.
Hi
I recently bought new Airpods Pro 2 and they are connected to my Rekordbox.
I don't use Airpods for DJ'ing but for prepping & listening on my macbook.
When using them on Rekordbox I hear a scratchy sound while the music is playing. They perfectly work while playing music on Spotify or Youtube,... also when I connect my Airpods to other devices.
I also tried using it on Ableton and no issue so it seems only on Rekordbox.
I have another pair of Rolfstone earbuds there is no problem there!
Anyone else having this issue and know how to solve it ?
Thanks!

Hi! So I had the same issue, which I was able to resolve.
Fix: Rekordbox > Preferences > Audio > Select Airpods for output > increase buffer size until the distortion disappears (for me it was 64 samples 1.3ms on a new M2 Macbook Pro)
Cheers!
