Traktor Pro Distortion? – A Possible Solution
Jan 9th
I’ve finally found a way to solve the distortion and stuttering playback in Traktor Pro when connecting it to my MIDI CD decks.
I searched for days on Google about possible ways to solve the problem, such as re-installing drivers, disabling wireless etc but none of them worked until I came across this…
The issue was with the MIDI mapping settings, and here’s the process I have to do each time I load Traktor Pro to get good sound quality.
At the start you can just about hear the stuttered playback, and then I make the settings changes I need to make every time I load the software to get good sound quality.
Traktor Pro & Windows 7 – Not So Bad Now
Dec 30th
I previously reported about terrible distortion and clipping of sound with Traktor Pro but I seem to have sorted out the problem somewhat by changing the mapping for my Denon DNS1200 cd players.
Before, all the midi mappings for the decks were assigned by one setting in traktor, but after separating the mappings to each individual deck it seems like I have better quality and have no terrible distortion at 15ms.
So for anyone with similar distortion issues with Traktor, try adjusting your mappings and changing them so you have 2, each for your different deck (duplicate each and assign them to each cd deck!)
Traktor Pro & Windows = Frustration
Dec 24th
Having changed my setup to Traktor Pro with MIDI Denon cd players using my iMac, I then decided to buy a laptop to use with future gigs, as an iMac is far from easy to transport to and from gigs.
Traktor Pro worked like a dream on the Mac, shame I can’t say the same for Windows 7 though – stuttered playback (tracks keep on stop/starting) and distortion. It’s not as if the laptop is bad spec either, it’s an Intel i5 processor with 4GB RAM, more than enough to run Traktor Pro.
I’ve tried everything I’ve read on forums, changing the power plan, upgrading drivers, disabling others, anti-virus, wireless etc but I can’t get better than 20ms latency – which is far from good! Looks like for now I’ll have to live with bad latency.
Still no mixes since August so I really to get some done in the New Year!!!
