Beatgrid visual on screen not synced/lined up with Sound coming from speakers

hi

Am using a Pioneer DDJ SB2 (know it is intended for Serato) controller hooked up to my Apple Macbook (OSX El Capitan) and running Rekordbox DJ.

The problem is this: Works 100% from the start, but after about an hour of continuous mixing, the visual Beatgrid on screen shifts out of sync/alignment with what i am hearing from the speakers. ie. When you hear the beat in the speakers whilst watching the screen the "lines" of the BeatGrid do not line up with the "red Centre line", which they do perfectly at the start. How do i fix this? is it aBuffer size setting? Mapping issue?

Please help?

thank you, much appreciated

Could try lowering the Buffer size in Settings, Audio, Buffer Size.

What is the model identifier of your computer? You can find it by going to the Apple icon at the top left of your screen, hover over About This Mac but hold the Option key and it will change to System Information... - click that and get the info from the 2nd line.

@Alex > It's not necessarily a rekordbox issue - as I type this, I have an SB2 hooked up to a MBP running rekordbox 4.3.0 and I don't have the same problem.

@heiko > If your computer has dual graphics cards, check to see which one is in use while rekordbox is running. Open the Activity Monitor, click to the Energy tab and see if this column is shown, and what the status is for rekordbox:

I use windows 7 and in the resource monitor the priority of the recordbox is set to the maximum level. But despite this after some time, there are problems with synchronization. The wave image of the track does not correspond to the sound. I also noticed that after a while the bit marks begin to diverge even when synchronization is enabled.

If you're having these problems on Windows, be sure your graphics drivers are updated from the manufacturer's page:

NVIDIA
Intel
AMD / ATI

You also may want to adjust the graphics depth to a lower setting to see if that resolves the delay between screen and sound.

thanks for all the responses.

gave it a good run yesterday. still doing the same after an extended play, and also encountered some other glithes (track BPM increasing and decreasing at it's own will), and static in play back.

Don't understand why it works perfectly at the start then goes out after about an hour?

attached my activity monitor. Not sure what it is telling me. Anybody know?

@heiko > See where it says "requires high perf. graphics" ? Try changing that so it uses the default adapter by using the setting on this page, and see if the issue persists after the same amount of time.
