[CLOSED] DDJ-T1 Sound Problem Bites Skip

Hello,

I have a very big problem. I use Pioneer DDJ-T1 with my Sony Vaio laptop VPCF1 and when i play music i hear some loss of bits as if someone put in or out an electronic device into the plugin. I must say that I called  the Native Instruments, and their response was that i have to contact Pioneer. I contacted the Pioneer Romania and gave me a unsatisfactory response, they told me that those sounds are made when there is an incompatibility between the console and laptop that I use. Have to say and I tried on many laptops console, nonperfoming than mine and it worked perfectly. I understand that is not MAC, but it i understood from the vendor specifications that i can use this console and a laptop with Windows 7 64 Bit. I must say I am very unhappy with the whole business that I made, ​​and the answers they gave me from Native Instruments and Pioneer, considering I paid almost $ 2000 laptop and 1200 $ for console. So if anyone has any suggestions I am willing to try.

Thanks ...

Alex

@Alex > It's interesting that you mention it's a Sony ... it seems that the majority of the people who are having playback issues with the DDJ series are using Sony laptops.

I'm going to open a ticket with the engineers to see if there's any common thread here with Sony computers that may be causing the problem.

@Alex - Salutare. Sigur e o problema legata de laptop, cum zicea si Pulse, eu folosesc ddj-t1 cu un dell inspiron 5010 (win7 64bits) si merge perfect. Incearca sa conectezi ddj-t1 pe ambele tipuri de porturi si pe usb 2.0 si pe usb 3.0... asta in cazul in care nu ai incercat deja.

Salut, am incercat si varianta asta si tot se aud pacaniturile respective! Ma gandesc totusi ca este o incompatibilitate intre cele doua dat fiind faptul ca are usb 3 iar Asio este priecrat doar pentru a fi folisit cu USB 2! Oricum mersi de sfat. O sa astept totusi un raspuns de la cei de la Pioneer!:)

@Alex > You are suggested to upgrade as it appears you're using 1.2.8.  The latest version is 2.1.2.

@Paul > What version of Traktor are you running?

I don't need any tips at the moment. My setup works perfect with no audio dropouts.

PS: I read that page BEFORE installing DDJ & Traktor :)

@Paul > Sorry, I didn't translate your earlier post but assumed because you had been posting your information that you were also experiencing problems.  Carry on then!  :)

That's OK. I assumed Alex is from Romania (like I am) based on his name, and was easier for me to talk to him in our native language!

No worries and thanks for that help -- I had tried the Romanian translator but it doesn't always do such a great job of translating local slang or colloquialisms.  :)
