Hi all,
Long time reader/student and fan of DJ Techtools 1st time with an issue. I'm running a Silver VCI100 f/ware V1.2 and Traktor V3.3.2.060. I've been djing for around 10 years and playing instruments for a while longer. I've just done my 1st Club job in the small mining town i live in and with my knowledge and personal drive am trying to take the recidency upon myself which is looking quite promising considering the work i have put into cleaning up the messy and dangerously wired DJ booth. I went in last night and expected my system to lock up and crash as i'd had minor problems with it at home. I'd done a job the week before with my own pa system with plenty of bass and not had a problem.
I'm running a Toshiba laptop with a Pentium 1.73 GHz, 794MHz processor and 2Gig of ram. I've got the VCI100 and and Audio Control 1 sound card. The problem i am experiencing is the VCI will randomly drop out and stop processing controls through to Traktor. Sometimes i can switch the VCI on and off through the Traktor settings and it will continue to run fine again. Other times it will stop working won't reset and mouse and keyboard commands will not work in Traktor then it will freeze the computer, run the song out for around 30 seconds then completely freeze the song like a strong reverb forcing me to switch the laptop off by power.
I'm honestly not sure if this is because of the bass sending to many signals through the jog wheels or whether it is a traktor glitch or what. I have also had the same problem sometimes when i turn traktor onto autopilot. it will play until i turn the autoplay off then freeze up and lose all control causing me to shut down and reboot.
Any help would be appreciated. I've just downloaded the demo of Traktor Pro and am stoked with the effects section and strongly looking at upgrading but would also like to leave the old version with a clean slate!
