Hot Cues changing location slightly

MacBook Pro M4, MacOS Sequoia 15.4.1, Djay Pro 5.3, Rane Performer

In my local mp3 files my cue points are slightly moved from day to day, sometimes I set cue points one day and the day after they are all one bar away from the grid. Not in all songs.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @DjLemart, thanks for the details about your setup and the issue.

  1. Are the files stored on your internal Mac drive or an external drive?
  2. Do you have any duplicates of these local files in your local library (perhaps in different file formats like mp3, wav, flac)?
  3. Are you using any streaming services like Apple Music in conjunction with these local mp3’s?
  4. Can you please upload a couple of the songs that you’re experiencing this issue with to your Google Drive/Drop Box, enable sharing permissions, and share a link to the files in a DM to me?

Thanks!

  1. Are the files stored on your internal Mac drive or an external drive?
    Local files in internal SSD

  2. Do you have any duplicates of these local files in your local library (perhaps in different file formats like mp3, wav, flac)?
    Yes… I’ve realised that I have in my iTunes Folder and in a dedicated folder.

  3. Are you using any streaming services like Apple Music in conjunction with these local mp3’s?
    Sure, local files, Apple Music, Soundcloud and Beatport.

  4. Can you please upload a couple of the songs that you’re experiencing this issue with to your Google Drive/Drop Box, enable sharing permissions, and share a link to the files in a DM to me?
    I will forward that to you ASAP.

Thanks again, so far I love Djay Pro and the only reason I keep using Serato Pro (sometimes) is to see the Album Art in the screens of my Rane Performer :rofl:

Thanks for the additional info and files. I’ve passed this onto engineering to see if they can replicate the issue and suggest anything.

Same issue….. my cue points has never stayed at the point I left them. And that on most track stored on my device or in the streaming

Hi guys. There is an issue with cue points moving slightly if you use tracks from streaming services. It only happens when you change the streaming quality. I noticed this when using Tidal when changing from max to low for an event with poor WiFi. I know your issues are with local files so can’t comment on that sorry.

Thanks for the additional feedback @Five-0 and @SamJam

Hi again @DjLemart and @Five-0, can you please disable WiFi on your devices and try testing again? I’m wondering if you’re accidentally loading a streaming version of the same local song. Thanks!
