I am having trouble with my XDJ RX2 while in performance mode. I have issues where the sound distorts for a second then resumes as if nothing happens and then issues where Rekordbox freezes and I have to replug in my USB into my laptop to fix the issue. I have tried using a powered USB 2.0 hub, adjusted every power setting I could think of, adjusted the latency to the point where scratching was impossible and I'm still having issues.I didn't have any of these issues with my Traktor S4 while using the same computer. I'm using an Alienware 15 with Rekordbox 5.2.2 and XDJ RX2 firmware 1.23.
I have also been having these issues since I purchased the XDJ RX2 back in January.
The standalone mode works fine.
Please help.

We have had problems with Alienware computers, even the most powerful, brand new units, lent to us directly from Dell -- and all of it was resolved by disabling or uninstalling the batch of management software applications that came preinstalled on the computer.
Give that a try before pursuing anything else.
The only Alienware/Dell programs I have left are the Alienware Command Center and the Dell Foundation Services. Should I get rid of those as well?
At the very least, try disabling them from auto-running.
Ok, I uninstalled and shut off the remaining dell software processes in task manager but I'm still having issues. I set my latency in Rekordbox to 10.2 ms. I ran Latencymon and these were my results. Is it possible it is an issue with the XDJ RX2 driver?
Wow, over 12,000?
Just for kicks, I benched system as well (with similar CPU specs) for 5 minutes, and even when I had rekordbox 5.2.0 running four tracks running, 2 effects applied, 4 color FX engaged, and one full length track loaded in a sampler, I was only able to get just over 6000 as my peak:

Here are a couple of things for you to try:
Disable your network adapters.
Check that your Power setting is in a Performance mode.
Change your USB settings > USB selective suspend settings > Plugged in: Disabled.
Turn off PCI Express > Link State Power Management > Plugged in: Off.
Run these three commands at an admin command prompt...
These will set things back to default if your system doesn't like them...
You will need to reboot after any bcdedit.
Ok, I did everything and things improved slightly... I was able to go 15 to 30 minutes without distortion.

CONCLUSION
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Your system appears to be having trouble handling real-time audio and other tasks. You are likely to experience buffer underruns appearing as drop outs, clicks or pops. One problem may be related to power management, disable CPU throttling settings in Control Panel and BIOS setup. Check for BIOS updates.
LatencyMon has been analyzing your system for 0:14:05 (h:mm:ss) on all processors.

MEASURED INTERRUPT TO USER PROCESS LATENCIES
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The interrupt to process latency reflects the measured interval that a usermode process needed to respond to a hardware request from the moment the interrupt service routine started execution. This includes the scheduling and execution of a DPC routine, the signaling of an event and the waking up of a usermode thread from an idle wait state in response to that event.

Hey Pulse,
I am still having issues. Reformated and reinstalled Windows 10, went back and did the steps you suggested. Turned off windows defender and pretty much everything else but I’m still getting latency spikes which cause audio distorions.
Is there anything you can do to help?
Have you checked to see if there are any BIOS or UEFI updates available for your computer from Dell?
Yep. I have the latest for both.
I did manage to fix the audio distortions, had a couple random processes running and managed to have rekordbox going for 2 hours before the latency spiked to 30000 and the music stopped. No distortion, just stopped and rekordbox dj was unresponsive. changing the latency setting immediately got the music back but it is still an issue that it glitched like that.
Sorry, I'm out of ideas -- I'll have to ask you to please file an inquiry ticket here. That ticket will ask you some of the same stuff you've already provided here, but it will fill in the ticket fields (which I don't have access to edit myself if I create a ticket for you) so our rekordbox support team will be able to assist you in resolving this issue.
Ok. Thank you for the help so far. I appreciate it.
No worries - I hope they can find a solution for you, it's really unusual for things to spike like that unless there's a background task all of a sudden hogging the resources... and I mean REALLY hogging things, so much that it would cause the audio to crash out. :(
I found in win 10 advanced power management to change setup maximum cpu at 99% to stop the clipping and pops. it works exactly the way with out changing any bios power setup
