So I've got traktor pro sucessfully sync'd to ableton live 8, with jackOSX on a mac.
I'm using the "v10" bentosan smart mixer, seems to be doing it's job just fine. This version only had two decks, but I duplicated the decks and SC's and made it input all 4 decks from Traktor. It sounds fine to me, but is the smartmixing still working the same or did I cheat? I would think Track's b and d or a and c aren't being smart mixed b/c they're on the same side of the fader, but that's fine, I still have all my EQ's mapped in traktor.
What do I have to do to add a VST instrument or an loop in ableton and still have it smart mixed? do I have to create a SC for everything? can I do that as many times as I need to?
Traktor is pretty self explanatory to me, but ableton is a different beast, i'm hitting the learning curve hard, haha. How do I enable soft takeover in ableton? the levels jump around when i switch between A/B and C/D because it's mapped direct to my faders.
I searched but didn't find something specific to adding things to the smartmixer. If there is a post somewhere that answers all my questions and more please point! Thanks!
I've been working on a 4 deck, 4fx unit, bentosan smartmixer mapping for my xponent I'm hoping to share after I get a bit further. Thanks to everyone in the DJTT community who've been providing so much awesome stuff for the whole digidj community! I hope I can make my contribution eventually.
