Hello,
I have been using V4 for about 10 days now, 3 parties so far.
Today, the program froze while playing. This is exactly what happened:
I had a song playing on deck 1. I found the next song to load, hit "load" on DMC, and then the graphics & program froze, nothing was moving, I could not access anything. The song on deck1 though, kept playing.
Happily, no one at the party noticed a thing (at THAT point) because I played the next track with winamp :(
After that, the sound on the 2nd deck (and only the 2nd deck) was terrible. Lots of noises and shatters going on. I managed to fix that by entering the config and changed 1-2 settings. I though that way it would re-load the audio engine/driver. It worked, i had no other problems during the party.
However, I will NOT be using V4 live anymore. Other than that, for some reason the program does not "feel" as stable as V3. The sound is also a bit worse on V4.
On another night, the pitch of one song (and all songs that i load after that) got "frozen", to about 3-4 keys down. No, i didn't have the FX plugin that changes the key.
I would defenitaly suggest the developers to continue beta test on V4 and fix all the bugs they can find, and not release the next version of 4 without exaggerated testing on multiple setups.
The first priority for live performing software, should be stability.
Thanx
Alex
ps. i would be happy to beta-test as i have experience in that area

Hey Al0000
I hear ya, mine never crashed but the stability issue is a main concern, I can play maybe 15 songs with no problems then BAMMM, gotta go and change settings again. And I have to agree that the sound IS better, but it has way too much bass (at least to me it does, i've never had to roll off the bass before and it sounds "different" at very loud volumes). Anyway, I went back to 3.4 and that is alright with me for now!!

Mine freezes all the time. It will work for about 20 songs then just stops. Music still plays but all action is frozen. Have to control -alt-delete. It stutters for about 10sec then closes. Not good for a live show.

Hey SkyFx
My laptop specs:
amd athon-m 3000+
756 Mb Ram
Gigaport AG
Run Sax N Dotties and Visitrax as Secondary programs.
I've tried every possible setting and it still hoses up--except on Pop, Rock & Hip Hop music (I know i've mentioned this before--but darnit, it's true--I do country 90 percent of the time)!!!
Went back to 3.4, which is rock solid for me, but any help would be appreciated.

I had problems but all fine now, it's just that version 4 needs tweaking in the config to match your hardware. Experiment ! (I had to set the master tempo complexity from 3 to 0)
