Adjusting the buffer size (Windows)
This unit functions as an audio device conforming to the ASIO standards.
Click Windows [Start] menu >[All Programs]>[Pioneer]>[Pioneer
CDJ]>[Pioneer CDJ ASIO Settings Utility].
A sufficiently large buffer size decreases the chance of sound dropout (sound
interruption) but increases audio signal transmission delay (latency).
! When an application program (DJ software, etc.) with this unit set as a fixed
device is running, terminate the program before adjusting the buffer size.
