Yes and yes it's normal.

Did you now the reason? A Spotify problem?

its part of Spotify, you cant analyse tracks on Serato or any other DJ software,
Spotify has done the analysation for you so you dont have to do this,

this tells me that Serato doesnt really cach the tracks to your laptop

that sucks cause Spotify kinda takes a while to load, everytime you load a track and if you have a slow wifi connection that can be a issue.

Tidal on the other hand has some form of caching so it loads faster when you analyse tracks or folders.

I dunno about apple cause I dont use it.

I tried it out. Everything works perfectly with this configuration:

-MacBook Air 2023 M.2

-16 GB RAM
-Pioneer DDJ FLX 10

In dark mode, there's a small white border around Serato in full-screen mode. This has already been described in other posts. You can avoid it by switching to light mode.

But otherwise, everything runs smoothly and cleanly.
