Traktor Pro and Live on Mac

[jgcamil]

Hey Bentosan,

Quick one... if I only want to route the MASTER of Tpro into Ableton, instead of the 4 channels using internal mixer.. possible?
I was thinking on choosing internal mixer, output of traktor master into jack and the rest remains the same...

Thoughts?

Yup, what you just said will work - though personally i dont see why anyone would want to do such a thing as then you remove the possibility of applying effects in Ableton to only one of your decks. Also you wont be able to use a smartmixer. The only advantage to this approach is that you can use the EQ's inside of Traktor Pro.

Ahh, so let me see if I understand correctly:

- Doing this will only let me apply the fx to ONE deck and not the master output.
- I will be able to use my Traktor fx (desired)

Any ideas on how to preserve my internal eqs while routing the MASTER into ableton so I can use the compressors?

Also: with JackOSX, do you think is possible to route Traktor into Izotope Ozone to get similar compressor results in Live? A big question I have on this idea is that Izotope works in 64bits, and this is not compatible with the Audio 8Dj... am I correct?

seems i didnt... ill give it a read!
One thing... Jack OSX page it does not support 10.5.6.. guess Ill have to wait until they release the support version.

anuary 16, 2009 - Released updated version 0.80, which updates JackRouter to allow it to be selected as the default system audio device again, addressing an issue introduced by OS X 10.5.6. It also updates JackPilot to ensure that available sample rates for each device are now retrieved more reliably. Finally, it updates the Jackdmp server to the latest SVN version (1.91).

Sure it does not work?

nemo can be unforgiving, jgcamil.

No if you do what you were saying when you apply an effect it will put it on the master mix.

If you route the individual decks into Ableton then you can apply effects onto individual decks - if you can them mix the audio into a single channel (the master channel) which you will then put your mastering VST effects on.

You cannot EQ and be in external mode at the same time - they took this out of traktor pro as it was confusing some users. Id sugest +1ing on this feature request thead on the traktor forum - http://www.nativeinstruments.de/foru...ad.php?t=73085
Instead you will have to use Abletons EQ's if you want to use external mode and route the decks out individually.

If you route the decks out individually you can then mix them into a single channel which you can apply your mastering vst's too the master channel.

Izotope is a VST plugin, so you can run that on your master channel inside Ableton live if you wish.

Seriously, if you are going though the effort of routing your audio into Ableton i would highly advise using external mode to route the decks onto indivual Ableton channels. This will allow you alot more freedom of creativity than just piping only the master channel into Ableton.

It's super easy to sync the tempo for ableton to follow traktor... ....Play with the tempo in Traktor and it should translate to Live.

It seems to work, just not very well. The temp fluctuates a lot in Ableton. Makes my beats sound drunk.

Any other solutions? I heard syncing with some kind of external master clock thingamajiggy works better. Not sure though.

Midi clock sucks, you need to sync the two by hand.
