    Default Windows 7 x64 and Digital DJ'ing, drivers, audio interfaces

    Anyone have experience with various usb audio interfaces with windows 7 x64, at the moment I can't dj in tracktor with my searto box due to driver issues, it works fine in windows xp but not in windows 7 x64. As more and more PC users upgrade laptops and they suck in a sticky situation, lack of good drivers.. On the NI forums there are many people complaining of pops/lag/issues with the audio 2 and 4 interfaces under win 7 x64, the other issue is some newer hardware doesn't even have windows xp drivers, i just picked up a new acer core i5 laptop and all the drivers are for windows 7 x86/64. Anyone have experience with the audio 2 dj in win 7 x64? I'm also looking for something with great win 7 x64 driver support, balanced +4dbu outputs, and a headphone amp/channel, and USB connectivity.

    I've been searching the NI forum about the Audio 4 and it seems to be having issues with snaps, crackles, and pops when dealing with windows 7 x64. wondering if that's been fixed....

    I had mad driver issues at first. My MPD32 and VCi-100 wern't working at all. Took me almost a month before I finally did a "reinstall to factory" wipe. Controllers loaded right up after that, but it def drove me nuts.

    My ProTools/MBox setup, as well as my Novation X-Station (which has a soundcard) both work great without any pops or crackles.

    I do get an occasional 2-3 second freeze, where my computer stalls for a bit using PT, but I'm pretty sure that could be fixed if I optimized my computer a little more...
