I am a Dj at Universal Studios and work in all of the clubs at City Walk . The booths all come standard with the new pioneer DDJ series controllers . I have two laptops that I bring with me in case of Emergencies. I am having the same problems on both computers. When connecting the controller the map settings work fine but it can not find the ASIO audio .It shows as an error in the audio settings of virtual dj . This might help a lot of people out there. I have found a quick fix to this. While virtual dj is running go into the audio settings to pick your controller . Select your controller and hit apply . It will then show errors. If you then disconnect you usb and then reinsert it quickly the audio wil kick in and work fine from that moment on, If you then close virtual dj and then open the program you will have to do the same thing again. Any idea how not to have to rig this thing every time I use it. I have a HP Omen laptop ($4000) and an Alienware m17 brand new ($4500) . Serato runs fine with no issues at all. I hate Serato.

I recently bought a brand new top of the line Alienware M17 laptop 32 gigs of memory/ 1 tb ssd drive / Nvidea 2070 RTX . I am a dj at Universal Studios City Walk on the main stage . The last three nights in the middle of my sets Virtual DJ will freeze up for 3 seconds and then continue. I shouldn't say freeze because the waveform looks like it is caught in a one beat loop but no audio plays . Then after five seconds or less it kicks back on and works fine for a little while . Ive tried everything to make it happen on purpose but can not. I can not figure this out. I HAVE NEVER BEWEN BOOED IN MY ENTIRE 25 year career ! Please help me fix this. I am using serato now with no problems but hate serato . I need to get this working again . ANY IDEAS?

I've been having the same issue with vdj freezing for 5 or 6 seconds without any audio and then it just kicks back in. It does that every 10-20 minutes and it's really annoying to put it very gently. I have a brand new dell laptop with all the neccessary configurations to run vdj and then some. I have done a ton of research and still can't seem to resolve this major problem. I am using a pioneer ddj-sz2. Is there a fix for this yet??????????

It might be helpful to review the PC Optimize guide here: https://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/PC%20Optimize.html
In particular, many users on this forum report issues with DPC latency on Dell machines. There's a link near the bottom of the guide to DPC latency checkers. In particular, you might want to run LatencyMon to see if you're affected. Link here: http://www.resplendence.com/latencymon
Good luck

I've done all of this. There is something the computer is doing every 30 minutes that make ASIO drop for 5 seconds. I've timed it by a stopwatch. Thought it might be the USB power saver but that didn't work. Now I'm just sitting there playing music and trying things and waiting 30 minutes . Any idea ? We have to show enough people have this issue in order for Virtual Dj to spend money to put it in the next update .

Ran LatencyMon today. at 30 minutes every bar went to max. But the audio did freeze but rather it went to really bad quality for 3 sec.

WDF01000.sys is a generic drivers encapsulation module.
You should try to disable your peripheral devices one by one until you find out which one causes it.
Start by odd devices like fingerprint scanner, e.t.c and then proceed to more common devices like wi-fi and power management

I have tried it all with my Dell G7 (LatencyMon, ThrottleStop, disabling the DSAPI process, etc.) and I have been able to prevent the 30 minute silence for a few hours but there is still a split-second stutter and every so often after a few hours, the silence happens again. One post I've seen online says the problem has to do with the CPU cooling routine in the Dell BIOS but I've never experienced the stutter/silence problem when I've played VDJ on my laptop without the controller. Also, as was confirmed earlier in this thread, this problem never occurs with Serato. So if this is a localized problem having to do with ASIO drivers and VDJ running on Dell computers with Pioneer controllers, who are we supposed to get the solution from? Is it the software or the controller drivers that need to be updated?

I too am having this same issue. I am a club dj in Austin, Tx and it is not only annoying but make you look bad as a Dj when you have a room go silent. It does not happen on serrato but I am not a fan of serrato. Is there a fix for this problem? I am using hp laptop with DDJ-SZ

If your laptop is a DELL, start by removing (uninstalling completely) "Dell Support Assist" application as it's known to have a tremendous negative effect on DPC latency.
