I feel like I'm so close :(
(Above) I've gone into the Midi Remote Scrips, created a folder titled Traktor S4, and copied the UserConfiguration.txt file, making the recommended edits for Midi CC #'s.
But as you can see in the picture below... The control surface is recognized, but the input and output are not.

I have no idea where to find the official names for the Traktor S4's Input and output ports. what am I supposed to name them? Is this not my only issue here? Please, any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Now getting into the next phase that is trying to get into beatmatching manually without phase meters/sync and just wanted to ask a question about cueing in general. What's the proper way to do it? Do you guys do the cue mix with both tracks on in your headphones to beatmatch before dropping the next track into your set? Or do you put the next upcoming track in one side of your headphones (left most side of your cue mix toggle) and try to beatmatch with the current track being played on the speaker output? Any good tips on beatmatching other than dropping it on the first beat? How do you guys nudge the jogwheel as well? is it more like a trial and error basis? I still can't really grasp a track is slower or faster even though the BPM is matched the same.

My style is mostly underground minimal house/techno/deep house. I find I can get techno to beatmatch easier but deep house and minimal house is much harder to get the beat in place when I try to do long transistions.

Thanks for the help and much appreciated! ]]> Native Instruments S4/S2 Controller Discussion holdened http://forum.djtechtools.com/showthread.php?t=71540 audio drops in browse mode s4 http://forum.djtechtools.com/showthread.php?t=71537&goto=newpost Sat, 18 May 2013 23:13:40 GMT sooo my dj partner in crime and I are having problems we use 2 seperet s4 controllers not sync togeather and on there own comps we beatmatch them ... sooo my dj partner in crime and I are having problems we use 2 seperet s4 controllers not sync togeather and on there own comps we beatmatch them manually going back an forth from s4 to s4 and run there own main outputs to there own channels on the mixing board we are having audio drops and lagging on both systems only in browse mode we get audio drops and in non browse mode if u turn the browse nod you get lagging other then that everything works fine its just the browse function any help? :cursing::cursing::cursing: ]]> Native Instruments S4/S2 Controller Discussion ChrisDiamond http://forum.djtechtools.com/showthread.php?t=71537
