    Default REALLY annoying glitch in Traktor. Fixable?

    When mixing 2 tunes and spinning back one record quickly just before dropping into another tune, the sound of the track I am spinning back drops out, therefore making the mix sound shit. It happens more often than not.
    Anyone get this? Anyway to sort this out? It really is a big pain in the ass!

    Traktor Pro, Audio 8, Time code vinyl.

    Thanks

    could you just be spinning the timecode back too fast and the needle is struggling to track, so no signal being sent

    Nope, spinning it back as I would regular vinyl. Sound literally cuts out at the fastest point the vinyl is spinning at then comes back in as it slows again. Using M447's, they hardly ever jump or have problems tracking.

    maybe the speed is just scrambling the signal then, so nothing to guide traktor and it kills the audio as it thinks the deck has stopped?

    just throwing ideas out there

    This is pretty much what I was thinking, that basically Traktor can't handle it every time. Rather fucking annoying! Is anyone using timecode getting the same problem? Or has anyone got timecode where they can try it out for me to see if they are getting the same results?

    Cheers

    question is, do you need to spin back that hard/fast?

    I cant reproduce this with exactly the same setup (Qbert Carts).
    Whats your Latency and Sample Rate settings?
    Whats your Keylock Settings for Quality and Mode?
