Click on the button that says Turn Bluetooth Off.

You can turn off Bluetooth using these steps:

Click on the button that says Turn Wi-Fi Off.

On the left hand sidebar, click on Wi-Fi.You can turn off Wi-Fi using these steps: In addition to freeing up system resources, disabling these can help resolve errors. If your computer is equipped with Bluetooth wireless and/or a Wi-Fi (AirPort) card, these may need to be disabled for Serato Studio to work efficiently. (If available) Uncheck the box Enable Power Nap while on battery power.(If available) Uncheck the box for Slightly dim display while on battery power.(If available) Uncheck the box for Put hard disks to sleep when possible.Otherwise, check the box for Prevent computer from sleeping automatically when the display is off.If present, set the Turn display off after: slider, to Never.Under BOTH the Battery and Power Adapter tab:.

This optimization will free up system resources as well as prevent the computer from going to sleep or standby mode which can cause audio dropouts with Serato Studio software. Optimize Power adapter & battery settings Please note that a higher sample rate will also exert more stress on the CPU. If the sample rate is doubled, 44 samples will now correspond to half a millisecond latency, since there are twice as many samples per second. As an example, imagine using a buffer size of 44 samples: with a sample rate of 44.1Khz (samples per second), the latency would then amount to 1 millisecond. Because this cycle is continuous, the processing 'workload' on the sound card will be greater when the buffer size is smaller. A larger buffer size on the other hand, will minimize this workload, but will also increase the amount of delay in time, or latency, while the audio signal is processing.Ī recommended approach is to find a suitable setting by beginning at 128 samples, and doubling the value until you find a happy medium.Ī higher sampling rate also reduces the amount of latency. The sound card will then fetch the next batch of 256 samples, and repeat the process, during continuous playback. At a setting of 256 samples, a chunk of audio 256 samples long is processed and sent through the sound card outputs, finally heard as an audio stream through speakers.

The audio buffer size, measured in samples, refers to the 'slice' of audio that is processed by your sound card at any one point. In computer based audio systems a certain amount of latency (known as buffering) is necessary to ensure that playback, recording and processing results in an error-free audio stream without dropouts or glitches. This setting determines how much time is available to the computer to complete all calculations for continuous audio playback, otherwise known as latency. The Audio Buffer Size for Serato Studio can be adjusted in the Setup window. We strongly advise you restart your computer before any session. Audio drop-outs, distortion, hangs, freezes, and crashes can all be mitigated or avoided simply by regularly restarting your computer. You'd be surprised at how many random issues can occur because a computer has not been restarted in days, weeks, or even months in some cases. Using Serato Studio (or any CPU-intensive application) with battery power can result in CPU throttling which could cause performance issues, particularly when the battery capacity is nearly empty.

Navigate to Mac HD > Applications > System PreferencesĮnsure your computer's power adapter is connected.

Click the Apple logo at the top left corner of your desktop or new Finder window, and choose System Preferences.

Navigate to Mac HD > Applications > System Settings.

In order to complete many of the optimizations below, you will need to access System Preferences or System Settings (if using macOS Ventura): Make sure you are also using the latest point release of your supported operating system version. Please check the Serato Studio system requirements for supported operating systems, and to ensure your computer meets or exceeds the recommended specifications that are stipulated. It's strongly recommended to carry out the optimizations whether you have a very powerful Mac computer, or an older model. Generally, you will need to make a few adjustments to your computer to ensure optimal performance for use with Serato Studio, or any Digital Audio Workstation for that matter.
