Reply to How to Fix Cracking and Popping Sound ?
So, I’ve found a bit of a work around for this issue which Apple has ignored for about 10yrs now. I’ve been looking for a solution for about 2months or more, ever since I was forced to upgrade to Catalina. I’ve seen this has been a problem as far back as 2014 for some people and NOTHING from Apple. This is a disgrace. Apple has ignored this incredibly BIG issue for this long and the bigger problem we as consumers have is that we have no option except to go to Windows, they suck too. But I digress… Anyway, I do a little DJing in my spare time. I own a Denon DJ controller. The controller is a standalone unit which means it has the ability to play music without a computer attached. Most DJ controllers use laptops nowadays. Maybe you’ve seen DJs using laptops with turntables to DJ, in this case, you don’t need a laptop. The controller links to the computer so you can put music directly on the controller or on a USB flash drive which you can plug into the controller. Denon DJ makes a free software called EngineDJ so you can organize and load music onto your controller or on a usb flash drive. When I open Engine DJ, I have minimal audio dropouts in Apple Music, there are still some, BUT when I close EngineDJ its 10 times worse. This tells me that its a software issue that can be fixed and Apple has simply decided NOT to fix it. “Expletive” You Apple. I’m not sure why the dropouts nearly stop when EngineDJ is loaded but until someone comes up with a better solution, maybe this will help some of you with this long running Apple computer problem. And maybe one of you developers can figure out how DenonDJ makes it work and then get Apple Music to load the same way. Thank you and good luck… Remy Lebeau
