    Are they new TC records? How long have you had your scratch licence? Might be that you're using mk1 timecodes with a new licence.

    It will say on top of the record (on the label) if it is MK2. If it doesn't say chances are you're using MK1. If you are using MK1 you will need to get the MK2 timecodes to work with TSP2.6 (assuming it isn't an updated version of the MK1 enabled software)

    I am not familiar with a TSP demo. I really don't think that exists. If you are running TSP in the top left of the screen it will say Traktor SCRATCH. If it does not say that than there is nothing you can do... except play actual vinyl in 'live input' mode.

    *Someone correct me if I am wrong about the TSP demo

    I believe the Traktor demo is scratch enabled..........You prob have MK1 timecode vinyls and the demo won't let you use them, but you might be able to when you get your serial....thats my guess.

    Yeah there are some early versions of traktor 2.1 that allowed both MK1 and MK2, but chances are it will only work with MK2, which is better anyway.

    I can't imagine NI would offer scratch in the demo. How would they expect users to try it without having timecodes?

    Might not make sense, but I know they used to....not sure if it has changed recently.
