Lol you just switch to the next track without even "mixing" it, but yeah, let's say it's nice :D
I have the same Timecode Soft- & Hardware, didn't have the 580 bucks for Serato Scratch Live. Skips quite a lot in your video, I don't know if that's because your computer has not enough RAM to record it properly or because of the Torq thingy, I heard it skips a lot, but never did when I used it.

Well my own theory why its skips is the pickup/neededl Numarks sucks and I will buy 2 new pickups when I'll get some cash in :) Dnt think its the program because I record with audacity.

Needle skipping could be plenty of reasons, I don't think the problem is in the needle itself. Either the weights aren't adjusted properly, the vinyl could be slightly bent and then when you push it down to track it bends downwards and the needle jumps a little, or the hole in the middle of the record is slightly larger than the center spindle and thus when you start tracking back and forth the vinyl will shift and the needle might move arounds. There could also be some nasty scratches causing it, but I don't think that's the reason as your needle seems to skip a lot, and the records would have to be pretty shredded to skip that much from scratches.
I'm probably not right on all this, only mixed for 2 months myself, and elitist DJs please pardon any faulty glossary :P

dude, i had a shitty computer and a very similar setup, an can tell you that your processor isn't fast, it has nothing to do with the records, or the hardware in you table set up.
i bought more ram, it didn't help. i'm going to safely assume you have an older computer.

That's what I said.
But if it was something with the TTs, näkkk would have been right.
I suggest you to let a track been played, sit down so that you're eyes are at the same level as the cartridge, and see if it jumps or something.

Dude, I'm experiencing the same problem as well.
What exactly did you do to solve this? Upgrade your computer with more RAM?
