Smart mixing traktor/ableton problem - JackDmp(Win)

[BentoSan]

What do you mean?

On the bottom right of the Ableton screen on the master and monitor out it was 1/2, give outputs 3/4 a go

Latency isn't really a problem here, the audio will probably sound terrible at 64 samples but it still should be producing sound even if it is not nice sound

I once put it to 64samples and experienced no output. Put it back to 4092samples or sum' and presto, out came the sound.
This setting has to deal with sound quality, if you keep pushing it down, at one point you must be reaching silence.

Told him/ asked him the same on a dutch DJ forum. Don't know if he has read it actually.

ok, that worked.. stupid me lol

but now I have distortion when I play my tracks.. kinda cracking like when your speakers are blown (but they aren't)

I've changed the buffer size to 512 too
I'm really glad you guys helped me out to this point, hope you can help me further

That crackle is the latency settings and where things start getting difficult
You need to adjust the latency settings for the virtual audio cables on Traktor at the same time as adjusting the virtual audio cable settings and your soundcard settings on Traktor until you get settings that work for you. As with all latency settings they vary from pc to pc so its impossible to tell you which latency settings will work for you.

I installed an express-card and after that i couldn't find latency settings that would run stable at all, so i switched over to JackDMP which works well except it only currently has support for 2 decks in stereo or 4 decks in mono.

i'm trying to setup my macbook to run traktor into ableon but after installing Jack OSX I can't get it to start. I was following the guide on here how to do it and got stuck...any suggestions/alternative to JACK OSX?

Hey guys, any1 has an idea on how to output the signal from ableton to the soundcard (which runs on asio) ???
I could figure out how to route the audio into ableton but I have no clue how to set up jackdmp to route it to asio...

Thanks in advance, Patrick.

So your saying your soundcard isnt appearing in QjackCtrl ?

[ko1N]

Well this is how i set Jack up (the Audio routing into Ableton works but the Audio routing out of Ableton doesn't...)



I can't find a way to route it to my soundcard (the card is powered on when jack is being started...)

[BentoSan]

You need to start the jack server telling it what soundcard you are using

For instance in the command prompt i type :
jackdmp -R -S -d portaudio -d "Driver name here" -p latencyhere

to get the driver name list you need to type

jackdmp -R -S -d portaudio -l

So for instance i might type:
jackdmp -R -S -d portaduio -d "FireBox ASIO Driver" -p 192
