delay when using cue points need help :)

[completej]

i have this (i believe) same type of problem.

if i am actively playing the track and try to make quick cuts to a cue point, i can really only get it to play on an 1/8th note, nothing quicker.
if i am not actively playing the track, i can get down to 1/16th, 1/32nd, something very very fast. only problem is, if i cue juggle then want to go into a loop or play, i have to hold the hotkeyed button down, then toggle play / loop.

i did use sync / quantize in the center area of traktor toggle settings, but with the track sync turned off.

i also notice with my cdj400s, quick cue shots are "less accurate" than with my apc40.

+1 on placement of cues and 'sync' related issues. if eans work and yours don't it isn't the laptop or traktor.

are the beatgrids accurate? and are the cues placed on or off the grid lines?

the cues seem fine, like its really unusual the first time i hit that cue theres a delay then when i hit it again i can do it as fast as my finger allows, then when i change cue theres a delay the first time i hit it again so i think its just the loading between cues so i dunno what that would be down to!

on the nanopad yeah?

fiddle with the velocity settings maybe with the korg editor software?

Could it be a cache setting? If you're jumping around to areas of the track that aren't cached anymore there could be a delay.

In the preferences try using a bigger cache.

ill give that a try but its only with certain songs so is there a way to compress songs for use in traktor??
