    Default AutoGain: Better in Traktor Pro 1 Than Traktor Pro 2?

    In Traktor Pro 1, the auto gain seemed really accurate to me. Since I've upgraded to 2, it seems like it's a lot more hit or miss.

    It is on, and it makes an attempt at every track I load. But I still get a lot of extra loud/quiet tracks.

    Anybody else notice this?

    as far as i can subjectively tell, the algorithm is unchanged. however, there seems to be a bug where traktor fails to write/store the autogain. as a consequence, the autogain remains--incorrectly!--at 0.0db.

    i recommend you make the "analyzed" column visible in the browser. see if you have a number of files with an autogain of 0.0db. (as traktor computes the autogain in 0.1db increments, if autogain works correctly, you should have only very few tracks with 0.0db autogain). if you have a bunch of files with an autogain value of 0.0db, you are probably affected by the bug and should re-analyze those files.

    Actually the scenario is like this (and it is retarded bug at least):
    - you load the fresh track
    - tractor scans it
    - you do something like beatgrid/cuepoints set
    - then (IMPORTANT) you change the data in track listing
    - traktor looses cuepoints and <strike>everyting</strike> bpm info.

    Pretty sad for software labeled "Pro" in it's second iteration.

    ^^^ i cannot reproduce that.

    tos, no offense, but you display a tendency to make unsubstantiated claims.

    rgtb, I'm very glad for you because this "accidental feature" is more than annoying. I'm quite positive that there is a bug reported as I did found people discussing it on the forums.
    About your second remark, I'm not going to comment but I stand corrected that TPRO2 won't loose gain data but will loose cuepoints/bpm/bpmlock.

    If you have any info about the problem, I'd like to hear and discuss it.
    If you need more precise outline for bug reproduction, I can send it to you but only if there is a chance of you fixing it. ;-)

    @ ToS: i'm experiencing the same problem. if i set beatgrid/cue points first, then edit the track's tags all changes done in step one are lost.

    See rtgb, this is what I was talking about. Seems like gain values persist but are not refreshed if I open detail-track-info after the traktor-scan.
