Playback & DJ Performance

How should I adjust the buffer size?

By lowering the buffer size setting, the latency (the period from when DDJ-1000 is operated until the sound is output) can be shortened. If there are interruptions in the sound, increase the buffer size, but note that this makes the latency longer. Set the buffer size to the minimum value at which no interruptions in the sound occur.

For Mac users

The buffer size can be adjusted in [Preferences] of rekordbox.

For Windows users

Click [Preferences] - [Audio] of rekordbox and then click the [Utility] button to display the ASIO settings utility screen. On this screen, you can set [Buffer Size].

Follow the procedure below to set the buffer size to the minimum value at which no interruptions in the sound occur.

Check whether or not interruptions in the sound occur with the default setting (buffer size: 256 samples).

[When no interruptions in the sound occur at the default setting]

  1. Start [DDJ_1000 Settings Utility] and set the buffer size to the minimum value at which no interruptions in the sound occur.
  2. If no interruptions in the sound occur, set the buffer size to the minimum value at which no interruptions in the sound occur. If interruptions in the sound occurred, set the buffer size to the minimum value at which no interruptions in the sound occur.
