Reloop Digital Jockey 2 Interface Headphone Noise
Reloop Digital Jockey 2 Interface Headphone Noise Posted on: 14.08.2013 by Yong Celestino Hi guys,recently I've been having trouble with my Reloop controller. Sometimes (for no apparent reason) when I have my headphones plugged in, this really loud noise suddenly comes through the headphones (some sort of buzzing noise) and it only makes this noise when the headphone vol. is 0. When I try to play music I hear nothing through the headphones when the volume is open and when I close it, I immediately get this buzz. It's not the headphones, I know that, and when I restart my laptop the noise is gone. Does anyone know what this is? Also (another problem) when I enable 4 fx units in Traktor, the cpu load suddenly goes through the roof. I this normal? | |

Yong Celestino 17.08.2013 | I upgraded Traktor and the headphone problem seems to be solved for now. As for the fx, I believe increasing the latency is indeed the best solution, so I'll look into that. Thanks for the advise guys! |
Armando Waithour 15.08.2013 | try increasing the latency. 10 ms are common. |

Kristofer Krauel 14.08.2013 | Bear in mind also that some residual noise through the headphones is a common problem with the Digital Jockey 2. When I had mine it was only apparent when there was no track coming through the headphones. |
Sonja Roybal 14.08.2013 | If you don't scratch, you don't need your latency that low. As far as the feedback sound, I would start with reinstalling the driver. What version of Traktor? |
Yong Celestino 14.08.2013 | Yeah I know it's not great, but I find it weird that 2 extra fx units have such a big impact on the cpu load, it goes from running smooth to having the cpu all the way in the red. |
Alphonso Deitchman 14.08.2013 | You have quite a weak processor so you can't expect amazing performance. You may want to raise your latency to 10-15ms to ease the strain on your computer. |
Yong Celestino 14.08.2013 | Asus laptop Pentium Dualcore 2.10 GHz RAM 4GB Windows 7 32 bit My latency settings: the number next to the latency bar says 256 below the bar it says 5.8 ms overall latency I don't know if my latency is really high or low, I just never changed it, because Traktor always ran smoothly. However when I installed & imported a new MIDI mapping today (Tekken Mapping) Traktor suddenly became a lot slower. I deleted the mapping, but it was still slow. It turned out it was the number of fx units that was causing it. When I changed it to 2 units instead of 4, everything was smooth again. Is it possible that the mapping caused this? Because before I never recall having problems with 4 units. |
Alphonso Deitchman 14.08.2013 | What are your computer specs, and what latency settings are you using for the controller? |
