Great Tutorial thxs, but I have some weird problem. I'm using AbletonLive on Asus K53s laptop with Esi U46XL usb interface and it works only with one type of mouse. I've tested many with no good result. The "only one" is Microsoft SideWinder X5. Can U please help me? Sorry for my english.

[VenVile]

Excellent tips! Some of them aren't discussed online at all. Thank you very much!

[whinchacha]

Aero actually reduce CPU usage. What the point you recommend to turn it off?

[mrclarksmith]

[DubSpot]

[djphunkshun]

Is there any monitoring software for windows xp?I downgraded my os thinking vista was causing the dropouts with all the aero effects. dpc lat works but not the latency mon. Is there an earlier version that works?

[TheCheeze3]

great tutorial! thanks for the help.

I was wondering, I have the great miss-fortune of using windows vista. I know they are similar OS's (and vista just sucks any way) but i was wondering if you could give some tips for that OS as well?

Thaknks

[DeeJayEndo]

@TheCheeze3 There are some great tips for that on the Native Instruments knowledge base

[ClubdunnyTv]

I just did all this and now traktor works for about five seconds grate :|

[DeeJayEndo]

@ClubdunnyTv Thats no good! Maybe you disabled something you weren't supposed to. Feel free to contact NI Tech support at 3234672693

[ClubdunnyTv]

[peen2k]

some usefull tips...keep up the good work Dubspot!

[lonelywolfy]

are you guys gonna make a how to optimize for mac users? or are we pretty much good there?.. ; )

[DeviantDigi]

Just a warning with some exceptions. If you install the hotfix and the newest windows updates at the same time you may have problems. After I did so my PC wouldn't boot or get past the configuring windows service prompt at start up. After restarting and attempting to boot in safe mode(s) multiple times it finally went through.

[DeeJayEndo]

@DeviantDigi Thanks for the tip! So I'm guessing the best way would be to install windows update, then install the hotfix.

[AsphaltTrouble]

Screw doing all that, just get a powerful laptop (for half the price of the most basic mac) and the get TuneUp Utilies and hit the Turbo Mode button - it does all that and more in just one button...... :)

[xsploit]

@AsphaltTrouble fuck mac

[BogdanStanciuMusic]

isn't this part 2?

[xenocore01]

@pilotdapunk A DJ that likes FREEDOM!!! And 2 button mice... :-)

[youngn420]

@xenocore01 FYI you can use a 2 button mouse on a Mac and get the fuctionality of both buttons.

[xenocore01]

@youngn420 Duh, its a joke man. Of course you can use an after market mouse. But there is a very distince difference between Apple and PC products. Apple is like a cruise ship. A PC is like a small speedboat. You can do whatever you want in AppleOS, as long as they support it natively. Try to do something they don't want you to, and its a pain in the ass. The PC gives you more freedom. You just have to do some of the work yourself.

@pilotdapunk LOL

[dland95]

@pilotdapunk The ones that are smart enough not to buy in to the Mac craze, PC's and Macs are about the same, Macs are just better at not crashing(Which DubStop is showing us how to make our PC's do that.) and Windows is better at being able to do whatever the hell you want.

[pandasecksi]

@pilotdapunk

i suggest that you delete your comment right now before the rest of the subscribers see it

[DjLoko190988]

@pilotdapunk the ones that dont just play track after track, the ones that like to do cool stuff, stuff that a mac wont allow. dont be sad you paid a shit load a money but you can still play tracks in a row.
