XDJ LOADS SONGS WITH HOT CUES MORE SLOWLY.

Hello all. I experience a 5 second (literally, 5 second, I timed it) delay when loading tracks to a deck, using a USB stick.

I went through 2 USB's thinking I had purchased a slow drive before realizing the problem was not with the drive (I have a Samsung Bar Plus which has a 300 mb/s read sped).

It wasn't until I was loading a few tracks with NO HOT CUES that I realize this delay only occurs when Hot Cues exist on a track.

IS THERE ANY SOLUTION TO THIS? Can someone confirm this is the case?

I have my entire library tagged with Hot Cues and always use them to call up my next track. I usually miss the first 16 bar phrase I'm shooting for cueing on because my track has loaded too slowly.

Thanks.

It takes time to load the hot cues to buffer, so that's perfectly normal. Which model XDJ are you using? It's much faster on each subsequent model (XDJ-XZ > RX2 > RX).

Hi, thank you for your response. I'm using the XDJ-RX2. Is it possible to tell me just how much faster this would be on the XZ? This may be a legitimate cause for upgrade. Thank you.
