upgrading traktor pro to 2...

[keithace]

So I bought a traktor 2 key from a fellow forum member. He said it came with is Z2 and that he didn't need it. I installed traktor 2 and tried to activate it and was told that I didnt have the appropriate base product to upgrade. Is this activation code tied to the Z2?

unless I did something else wrong...

How are you trying to activate it? Are you pressing the upgrade button? Or overwriting the serial number in settings?

Those key's that come with NI products are tied to the product. You'd have to register the Z2 under your account then use the Traktor 2 key.

I don't think so. I'm running a Traktor key for X1.

installed the demo version of traktor and tried to activate it...

should i uninstall the old version of traktor and try it with just traktor 2 on the computer?

don't quote me on this but from memory pro 2 is a separate product to pro, so serials didn't transfer ... can't remember

[keithace]

but shouldn't i just able to activate it?

Pretty positive on this. They say they are non-transferable. In fact if you got a Z2 with Traktor 2 and later wanted to sell your Z2 NI will (try to) make you transfer the license as well. If they were transferable the for sale section would be full of Traktor keys for sale. I bet some people on this forum have 4 or 5 keys laying around that are useless.

The only thing that required the controller was the scratch upgrade for the S4.

The old version of Traktor is not the same as Traktor Scratch 2. They will register as two different keys. You need to install the demo of Traktor Pro 2 and then input the CD key for Traktor Scratch.
