If you feel your computer in Windows is slow for DJing, you should check the following settings.
1) Switch off the Wifi, Bluetooth, and any other network connection on your computer before a DJ performance. Network connections consume CPU ressources and may cause crackles in the music. Letting the Wifi receiver switched on is the most dangerous setting for DJing on a computer, since each time the Wifi receiver of the computer detects another Wifi source, the CPU ressources of the computer will drop of 50%: if someone in the street has a smartphone with Wifi on, your computer detects this Wifi source, scans it, and this Wifi identification process takes up to 50% of the computer CPU ressources, possibly causing crackling.
2) Disable Windows preset made to save energy on the USB. This preset is set on by default, and it may cause crackling in the sound, and even disconnect the DJ controller on the computer.
Right-click on My computer > Properties > Device Manager > Universal Serial Bus controllers,
Right-click on the first line "USB Root Hub" and click "Properties"
Go to the tab "Power Management", and uncheck the box "Allow computer to turn off this device to save energy"
Click "OK" and close the dialog box
Repeat the same operation on each line called USB Root Hub or USB hub.
3) Close any background software Real time operations as Djing or video capture require to as much CPU ressources as possible, so you should close any other background software during a DJ performance.
4) If possible, move the mouse far from the USB port where you plug the DJ controller If the USB port of your mouse is close from the USB port of your DJ Controller, and if you have enough USB ports for it, you should plug the DJ Controller on a USB port far from the mouse USB port, as the click on your mouse may be heard in the audio played on your DJ controller if the USB port are close one from the other.
5) If you are in Windows 7 or in Windows Vista, avoid Aero graphic theme. Aero graphic themes are CPU intensive, so don't use an Aero graphic theme while doing any real-time task as music production or video capture, select a basic theme instead.
6) Adjust your computer power settings for the best performance - On Windows deskotp, right click on Computer > Properties > Advanced System settings - Click on "Settings" in the "Performance" area. - In "Visual Effects", click on "Adjust for best performance", and press "OK".
7) If you use a laptop, set your Power plan on "High performance". Press Windows + X keys to call Windows X Menu, and select Power Options. In Related settings, click on Additional Power Settings.
In "Choose or customize a power plan", select High performance.
8) Don't let any USB key connected on the computer You can use USB keys to copy an audio track on or from your computer, but once it is over, unplug it from your computer. USB keys have a slow access time (even USB keys with a fast transfer rate have a slow access time), so if they are connected to the computer, they decrease significantly the computer performance even for task which don't use the USB keys. Never play an audio track directly from a USB key: if you uncompress an audio track on a USB key, the access time of the USB key is so slow that you complete computer because slow. If you want to play a track stored on a USB key, copy it on your hard disk prior to playing it.
9) Make sure your disk is not saturated, DJing requires a large available hard-drive space Windows needs hard drive space to be fast, and playing music requires a significant hard disk space. When loading audio tracks, the audio tracks are uncompressed in the software and need, either in the hard drive + in the RAM, the same space as if they were in an uncompressed WAV format, even if they are stored in a compressed format as MP3, AAC or WMA. Examples of hard drive + RAM needed to uncompress 2 tracks of 10 minutes
16-bit/44.1 kHz, 2 tracks of 10 minutes = 201.8 MB
Press Release - September 21st 2017 - Hercules releases the latest and greatest version of its DJUCED 40 software, 3.6, including the Qobuz online audio streaming service.
What’s new in DJUCED™ 40° 3.6 ? Here, in DJUCED labs, we constantly improve, test and play with our software. We teamed up with severals DJs and with YOU, the community, to improve the audio engine, the scratch feeling and the general latency of the software, especially with controllers. Better than good, the feeling is great. The integration of Qobuz adds fun to the experience with over 40 million titles to your connected parties. We hope you’ll enjoy this 3.6 version as much as we worked on it.
CPU OPTIMISATION – AUDIO ENGINE REWORK DJUCED 40 3.6 has been rebuilt from the inside. The 64-bit integration reduces the CPU consumption to avoid audio dropouts and latency. It works flawlessly, on Mac and PC.
MASTER PC SPEAKERS Want to use your laptop speakers and your controller preview at the same time ? It’s just one click in the settings.

POST-FADER FX Reverb and Delay effects are no longer cut off when using the volume fader. Instead, effects are applied after the volume fader: in this way, you can still hear the end of effects when a deck’s volume fader is brought down. Perfect for improving quick transitions.
