Traktor Pro 2 Playback Issue

[makar1]

If you can't get it to work smoothly by tweaking settings (check out the Windows Optimization Guides too), then buying a more powerful computer would be the next thing to do.

Well thank you and everyone else for the help. I had one more question. I have another laptop with Traktor pro 2.6 on it and I loaded up some music on it and it was doing something similar but then I raised the latency setting to the highest value and it seemed to play fairly smooth but had just a little clipping. Is there any definite detriments to having the latency setting so high?

The only detriment to having a high latency setting is the delay in reaction to pressing a button or turning a knob. If you're getting clipping, you should turn your Master volume down or increase the Headroom setting in the Traktor Mixer settings.

Theres my latency and processor now. I dont really understand how they would affect playback now if I have never messed with them and in the past they were running smooth? Enlighten me please lol

Worked fine with a previous version of Traktor like the first version?

With TP1 I had the latency down to 7ms no problem, but with Traktor 2 it has to be at 17, and even then the CPU load is close to spiking...And it's only stable with one version. I've downloaded every verision, but still only continue to use version 2.1.1 because every other version has my CPU load going through the roof.

I wanted to distinguish that by "master" he means inside the software, at the top of the user interface, not on your controller. I made that mistake before.

Do you run Dell? Can't remember the series but my friend had this same issue.

I originally started off running Traktor Pro 2.5 out of the box. I updated until I think 6.1 and the software was running fine with my setup. The most recent Traktor Pro version is the only one that has Been giving me issues. I believe it's Traktor Pro 2.6.3 or something similar.
