I noticed one of the 2 star reviews mentioned a 2 second lag if using it as a live music device. Has anyone else had this problem?

I'm not gonna lie truth is it's only good for audio streaming not for tv because voice will be after lip movement and things like playing guitar will have a lag so if you are audio streaming honestly it's a great product for that unless you can modify the lag

"What am I doing wrong?" Trying to save money. Mine worked ok as long as I was within 6 feet of it. I needed it to work at 25 feet so I bought a professional unit from a music supply store and haven't had any problems since. IIRC, there's a switch on the side you might have missed but this is a cheap sketchy little bit of electronica so don't expect much.

If the device you're playing it I is close to other electronic that could happen, or if you're charging it. Happens with most devices. But if it's not playing music and making static noises a wire could be broken. But without seeing the problem myself I don't know what's up with with it. Maybe if you could record a YouTube video And respond again?

Mine worked very intermittently. I was able to get music to come out of it, but not very reliably. Try moving it around. You could also check if there's an update for the firmware for your access point.I ended up sending mine back because the music was constantly pausing.

It lags, unfortunately. That is the only issue I have but I installed apps for daughter to view kid's stories, songs, abcs etc

if you're referring to the lag that was present with the first release, it has been fixed with a firmware update. http://pioneerdj.com/support/product.php?c=3706〈=en&p;=DDJ-SZ&t;=295

I've had that problem myself but it seems sporadic. It can be frustrating . It almost seems it has a warm up period. After I play music for a while , it seems to stop doing this. I'm not the only one saying this . Some of the people who gave reviews on Amazon have this same problem . So it seems not to be a defect. If it is , there are quite a few defective speakers out there.

I have a 2-yr old macbook pro, and there doesn't seem to be a noticeable delay. The main issue is when you hit the keys, they don't always play the note, or they might play two notes.

My advice is to avoid this unit if you use Windows. It is 2014, and it still glitches in non-ASIO apps, and toggling ASIO in Ableton toggles the glitches. I am 99% confident it is driver related. I'll be switching to Scarlett for music production in Windows. Not sure about the Roland, but Ive heard a lot of MAC users complain about Maudio driver issues in OSX, but that was years ago.

I'm not an audio engineer but I did help set this up for my son on his laptop. I don't recall any problems in latency. The monitored sound never lagged. You can monitor the recording on the supplied headphone and I believe the recording sound is what you are playing thru the instrument jack, or singing thru the voice jack or dubbing over an existing track. Hope this helps. Cheers. =:>

Have had mine for over 2 years and no problems yet. But then it might depend on how much you use the player? Mine doesn't really get used that much.

I haven't been using mine so much as a crazy full time user... and mine is a bit slow, to be honest, which is probably the reason. I bought it because it was inexpensive, and I guess you get what you pay for. I just in the past few days started downloading music on it and am more using it as a music player to listen to at work, for which it holds its charge well... but it's truly not what I bought it for. Eventually, I will be saving up for a higher end model so I can truly use it for the processor I intended it to be, to help me write a book, etc...

i'm using mine to connect from analog output Amplifier to my TV only in which mostly playing a DVD and karaoke machine. I didn't really notice lagging.

I asked my son his opinion because he has used his at events already. His response: Hard to say but as long as it's not lagging slow it should be okay. He said his is slower than mine and he uses it to run background music.

Horribly, because it doesn't seem to stay on the network very well. I've had two now, the first sent back to ASUS because it wouldn't work, the second is now still not really working. The few times I did try to stream audio, it worked, somewhat but would stop playing at random. (or are you not asking how well, but 'what technique do you use?') To make it work, you use apple airplay as I recall, I didn't try it with a PC though. It just shows up on airplay if the settings are right in the web setup UI.

I would assume so. I am returning the one I bought. The songs cut in and out and are choppy.

The lag is 250 milliseconds. Not noticeable unless you are looking for it. All Bluetooth has this delay.
