Is it me or am I losing my mind?
Since upgrading to 4.1 the pitch/tempo sliders on my DAC-2 do not function very well. They'll move the onscreen indicator but not very well or in realtime, if at all.
The other is when I'm playing some background music I have VDJ in AUTOMIX mode. The first issue is the Cue points- they suck. Even if I have the Autocue Disabled it doesn't really disable it. The other is "how" it mixes the tracks. I have the crossfader set to smooth on about a 5.5 sec mix. Sometimes I'm lucky to get a nano-second mix, and the cue point jumps damned near the middle of a track.
This is happening on two machines now: one laptop and one PC. Both are AMD Athalon64 Processors with over a gig of ram. All background applications disabled or turned off.
What's going on?

I'd like to get to the bottom of how automix is causing songs to mix from the middle of the song. Hopefully some users who've experienced this will post their settings and help figure that out.
As for the crossfade times in automix, I found that changing the crossfade type in the config made longer and smoother transitions for me.

Well, it's really driving me f'n bananas. I've tried optomizing the performance, trying auto, setting it to the lowest possible everything to see what happens- nada. The same thing happens. Different skins don't seem to matter much. Neither does adding more ram to the rig.

Read last post in this thread for automix issue - just 1 solution for this person - not necessarily the solution for all - http://www.virtualdj.com/forums/54676/Bugs_report/problem_with_auto_mixing.html
As for the DAC issue - read this thread - http://www.virtualdj.com/forums/58055/General_Discussion/new_release__v4_1_rev2.html
A sub release was made available to resolve your issue. Also, there is a DAC2 mapper for v4.1 coming real soon.

luis - with 4.1r2 your dac should work with limited funstionality - CUE (1 cue point), PLAY, Loops, BeatMatch, Pitch Bend. If you want more capabilities then download the new mapper from the plugin section.

You know I once had problems with the DAC not responding and/or losing communication. Here is honestly what solved this. I actually was a power thing and I will say even a powered hub didn't fix it. When the bass hit is when I would lose communication. I switched the DAC to a different outlet and sure enough there were no more problems. I think the DAC is very sensitive when it comes to power. Anyone else experienced this??
