Anyone Upgrade to Traktor 4 yet?

...

Somebody at NI should have done this exact thing since forever. I don't think the problem would be hard to find and solve with the uncompiled code at hand.

The 'Deck Lock" issues was the main reason for finally leaving Traktor Pro, I was hoping Traktor 4 would have solved it. Oh well..

Oh well. Happily i find the workaround satisfactory and can enjoy all the rest of the traktor goodies.

Dare I ask what the dreaded "deck lock" issue is?

When you attempt to load a track into a stopped deck only to get the message that the deck must be stopped first, it mainly affects DVS users.
I emailed Native Instruments support, but they suggested turning off the Deck Lock feature, which defeats the purpose of the Deck Lock feature.

This is probably an obvious guess but is it possible the record is still moving a tiny bit when this happens? I have quickly corrected this issue with a baby scratch and stop on the deck. I use DVS more often than not in Traktor and don't recall encountering this in other situations. Also if the needle gets to the middle of the record traktor switches to internal mode until you move the needle back or stop the record; if you don't switch it back to relative mode you have to stop the track with the play/pause button. Traktor considers the record to be playing long after the music stops if you don't do these things. [Apologies if you already know this; I'm just guessing here].

Short answer: Nope.
As I mentioned earlier, I've emailed NI support, they are aware but claim to not be able to reproduce the problem.
