Drive overload indicator

I’ve intermittently had issues loading a track where the system seems like it’s frozen for 5-10 seconds. I haven’t been able to predictably recreate this but I’ve only had the issue with a couple of fairly old USB drives (haven’t had a problem with any SD cards) so my assumption is that the cause is a slow USB drive. Currently there doesn’t seem to be any visual indicator that would show the system is responsive but loading rather than non-responsive.

Similar programs’ features I’m thinking of are Ableton Live’s disc overload indicator or Traktor’s orange flashing status bar, just so that I can trust it’s still working and leave it alone for a few seconds and not instinctively make things worse by hitting buttons to figure out what’s going on.

Hello, Maybe try posting it in the feature request area, and follow the correct form?

Done - hopefully! Been about a decade and a half since I last navigated an old-school style forum, seems I got a bit lost and posted to the section of the wrong tab I had open!

You posted in the right section, but it did not follow the template; so I moved it to General. :wink:

New one does and it can be found here:

I’ll close this topic accordingly.
