My songs are always either way too fast or far too slow, it has something to do with the tempo at the top but im not sure how to fix it, any help?

[NovationTV]

@megamurg Please could you tell us a little bit more about the problem you are having. Are you referring to the speed of tracks you are mixing in a DJ set?

is there some system specs? just got my launchpad today and i'm a bit dissapointed couse it lags my computer and it takes a while to switch screen (not like in the video) is this a problem of my system?(intel i3, 3gb ram ,no soundcard{notebook}) or what =(? it's a shame couse the product feels really good and looks awesome but this might be a huge drawback .. it also randomly crashes sometimes . using ableton 8.1.1...plz reply

@xbuster17 the same happen here, it glitch when i go from seesion to user mode 2, and sometimes it freeze, im using hp G64 4GB RAM i5, no soundcard, oxygen 8 and launchpad ableton suite 8.1 but when i switch on the output for the launchpad to have a led response , it makes all of this, but when it is turned off, everthing works good, i change preferences and give more buffer to sampler and output but the latency goes really up. almos 127ms. anyway at least is working a little bit better .
