    Default How to force Traktor to reanalyze

    Let's imagine this scenario. I have a track named A that is imported into Traktor 2.5 library. It is too quiet, so I normalize it using some other tool. Now I right click on it in Traktor and select Analyze(Async), then press ok in the Analyze dialog pop-up...I can tell that Traktor does not re-analyze the track because it it still shows the quieter waveform. So I delete the track from the collection then re-import it. Still, when I put the track into a deck it shows the old waveform.

    So this is where I need you, guys. Can somebody tell me if there is a way for force Traktor to re-analize tracks and re-create the waveform? Thanks.

    padi_04, one would think that it would do the trick. Just like one would thing selecting "analyze" would re-analyze. But neither is the case in my experience.

    You, guys, are totally focusing on the wrong part of the question. Normalization was just an example. The question applies to any sort of in-place modification of the audio data. Let's say I have a file that has 10 minutes of silence after the actual track and I want to get rid of it. But I spent half hour placing que points and don't want that work to go to waste.

    But if I were to normalize an audio file, I'd use sox. It's a command-line utility that can do all kinds of neat stuff with audio files.

    Normalize probably didn't overwrite your MP3 tag. Traktor collection save file as a backup.

    Try opening the file with kid3 and strip it from all tags, then reimport to traktor. As a last resort look inside the your Traktor folder for one called "stripes". now find the subfolder that matches the original import date of that track and delete it (pointing the exact one tied to that file is a pain).

    Default The Actual Answer:

    Here is the solution:

    Right click on the file, choose analyze.

    In the pop-up window, choose 'special'

    Choose ALL the values, BPM, automatic, set beatgrid, key, gain, and most importantly- "Replace Locked Values"

    The replace locked values option seems to do the trick.

    Cheers - DJ5D

    You can't have it both ways. You can disable the analysis in preferences. The one you are looking for is analyse track on load. You will have to manually analyse new tracks if you disable all the auto analysis options mybkexperience.
