Traktor reset, fix or uninstall (sync issue)

[AL-THE-OK]

OK i have talked to the support team and the guy sent me this ....

Hello Alex , just use the internal clock as master, then all decks can stay in sync all the time. Just set it up as shown in attached screenshot. Best regardsStefan, Native Instruments Support Team

So i went onto the and clicked on master and tried it and both track did not syn with each other the track that i wanted to synce, synced with the tap number which also was not selected or lit .

here i have sent a screen shot to show you....Attachment 6245

i still dont understand whats wrong, i just want each track to syn with each other once i press the syn button, i dont want a master track,

If one trak 1 is 70bpm and track 2 is 80 bpm and i press sync , i want the track 2 to go down to 70bpm. If i then turn sync off and put track 2 to to 60 from 70 bpm and press sync on track one i want it to go to 60 bpm.

Ok try this. Start a track in Deck A in "auto" mode. Press play on Deck A and the master light should light up and the BPM should match that tracks original BPM. Now start another track with a different BPM in Deck B with sync off. You'll see the track in Deck B has its original BPM. Now press Sync on Deck B. The BPM should drop or increase to the tempo of Deck A. Just like you think it should.

Now, here is the trick. If you want Deck A to follow Deck B. Do this.

With both decks running and in sync, press Shift + Sync on Deck B. Now the Master light should light up on Deck B. Turn off the Sync on Deck A and adjust the tempo of Deck B to be faster or slower. Now press Sync again on Deck A and watch how the tempo matches Deck B.

I hope you get it now.

Cheers scamo , i do understand this , i have since the first few comments you have given me ,but ! there is a way the original way and how it should have been when i first installed the software when you never had to press shift and sync.

If i wanted to sync one track to the other i would just press the sync and it would automaticaly syn to the other track . When i wanted to sync a track to the other all i would have to do is press sync, if i wanted the track that i just synced to speed up i would knock tempo off and speed it up . I would then be able to go onto the other track and speed it up the the track that i first synced but then sped up i would just press sync on that track for both to be in sync with eachother again.

thanks for your help by the way,

You might of thought it was working that way, but probably you just happened to have the right deck as the master, when you changed the tempo. Only the master can lead (and change tempo). I am also new to Traktor (about 6 months) and I would actually say its been that way from the start or for quite a long time, because it's the only way it can work. One deck or track or the clock has to be the tempo leader, the other decks are then then followers.

I may have the answer for you.

change your settings so that it is set to TEMPO SYNC

[scamo]

I think you still need a deck or the clock to be master to get a track synced in "Tempo Sync" mode.

Yes I am aware of that. But its is the only way I can think of the best sums up what OP is looking for.
props to you for your help with the tread

I'm bumping because this happened to me over the weekend.

And it's pretty hard to explain if you haven't experienced it, but whatever the source it's a PITA.

What I am used to happening is that as soon as I press play on a deck, it automatically becomes the master. And as I mix into the next track, once I stop the first track the second track becomes the master.

Something changed and now the metronome in Traktor always wants to be the master.
I didn't change any settings. Altho I tried adjusting and messing with stuff hoping it would correct it.

I'm going to mess around with it more and if I can figure it out I will post the solution.

And no Tempo Sync is not the answer.

I'd say somehow you turned of the automatic mode.

Nope.

But after checking out the NI forums I think it's a bug related to switching between 2 and 4 decks. If you have 4 decks and sync turned on deck C or D, and then switch to 2 decks, this situation occurs.

Because I was using it with 4 decks messing around, but changed to 2 deck mode while performing.

I'm going to mess around with it tonight and confirm/deny this.
