Traktor Scratch Poor (a.k.a. Ghetto Timecode Control)

While it's possible that maybe they just haven't allocated any dev time towards patching this out, it could also be that they just don't care, or can't do it?

Cool!

hahahaha

yeah ive seen the video with the 4D, but just to make sure, you need TSP unlocked, not just Tpro?

[ctran]

Yeah you need Traktor Scratch Pro. If you just have Traktor Pro, you'll see a "Scratch Disabled" message when you open up the scratch pads in each deck.

kool, thanks for the heads up, I have T-Pro, but dont have too much time to mess with it.

Upon further research, maybe not! NI has been aware of this since at least November 2008:

That was for the Xone 4D which was going to be Scratch certified anyway. I'll bet the loophole will be patched by the next update which ironically will be the one that has the algorithym that'll make keylock and timecode actually sound bearable.

Ah, good call then. Any ETA on the next update?

I'm going to hold off on the video for tonight -- BentoSan brought up a few good points and I want to clean up my setup a bit. I'm probably going to toss my vestax mixer into the setup to clean up the phono signal -- I left it out intentionally to try to make this setup as minimal as possible, but obviously anyone who has two decks is probably going to have a mixer too.

BTW, a big for the NI forum dude who assumes I'm using a cracked version of Traktor.

It is 'In development' - my guess 8 weeks. But that is just a guess.

I was so excited about the fact that the audio 8 does not make any special trick or decoding job, decided to try it my self with a PC running XP and Traktor 3.4.

What I did was the following:
1. Got a Traktor timecode cd
2. As actually I dont have any truntable or dj cd deck at home just loaded the traktor timecode cd on my other laptop running another copy of tracktor, so I could have the cd decks features and try some pitch changes.
3. Conected the line out the second laptop to the line in of my M-Audio Audiophile which is connected to the main laptop.
4. Configured tracktor with the line input mentioned above for deck A
5. Loaded a song on deck A
6. Press play on the laptop running the tracktor timecode CD and guess what....
I am still smiling... It gives a perfect timecode signal... so perfect that as a matter of fact I tryed some pitch changes and mouse scratching and it works flawless until now. I will do some more testing but guess what... tomorrow I am getting back my old TTs which I could not use because my lack of vinyls and I am going try this out in combination with the vci to see If all works together.

Thanks for posting this, I will have a very fun weekend...
