TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEM CAUSE SOLUTION I'm seeing a “Hardware Disconnected” message in the software. I’m experiencing some audio dropouts or slow response. Software closes or freezes as soon as it opens. I’m having problems scanning or searching through my iTunes library. I’m hearing a weird noise when I start playback if the NS7’s PLATTER is stopped. I'm experiencing software problems when running my finger along the NS7's STRIP SEARCH. The auto-BPM reading for a track is incorrect. The USB cable is not properly connected to your computer or NS7. The software was opened before NS7 was connected. NS7 not powered on. Other programs are draining your computer’s CPU. iTunes 8.0.2 (and higher) is interfering with how the software scans its libraries. The PLATTER’s start time is too high. The STRIP SEARCH sensor isn't meant to receive information in a “continuous” fashion (i.e., running your finger across it). The software’s BPM Range is not properly set for your track's tempo. (The BPM Range is restricting what BPMs are allowed.) Your track's rhythm is very syncopated or has bass drum or snare drum hits in odd places, causing a BPM miscalculation. For more information, visit: http://www.numark.com/ns7 http://www.serato.com/itch 30 Make sure both USB connections are secure. Close the software and reopen after properly connecting and powering on NS7. Close any unnecessary programs and turn off your computer’s wireless card (or disconnect from the internet). Disable anti-virus software or other programs that regularly scan your computer or regularly search for an internet connection. Change the buffer size settings in the software (see "USB Buffer Size" on Page 12). At a larger buffer size, you should no longer experience audio dropouts, but there may be a slight delay when the software responds to the hardware (latency). At a lower buffer size, your computer will respond more quickly (less latency), but your computer needs to be fast enough to prevent audio dropouts or other issues. Experiment to find the optimal settings for your computer. Downgrade your version of iTunes at http://www.oldapps.com/itunes.htm. Decrease the PLATTER’s start time by adjusting the START TIME knob. (See "PLAYBACK CONTROLS" on Page 7.) Only use the STRIP SEARCH as if you were dropping a needle on a record – touch it at only one point at a time. To scroll/scrub through the track, spin the PLATTER instead. With the NS7 disconnected, set the software's BPM Range to an appropriate range that will allow the BPMs you want, then rebuild the overview for that track. (See "Auto-BPM" on Page 10.) Manually tap a tempo for the track by pressing the Deck’s TAP button (on the NS7) in time with the track.
