DJM 900 Nexus & Traktor set up

Hey guys, some assistance required.

I’m trying to set up Traktor Scratch 2 with a DJM Nexus 900 using a USB straight from the mixer to my mackbook. I’ve installed all the drivers I can get music playing through the mixer but not with the timecode CD’s which I really want, for some reason I can not get the following to show in traktor settings

You’ve got the 900 configured as the audio on the audio settings right? You’ve set it to mix externally?

I know on my PC, I need to do those two things, but I also have a 900 Nexus Setup Utility that pops up when I plug in the USB. Don’t know if Macs are similar. If so, you’ll have to make sure that the input and output settings on that setup utility are all correct, then Traktor will automatically populate the input and output settings when the DJM 900 is selected on the audio settings page.

The naming of inputs should not affect your ability to use them. Open the DJM Utility program and set the “Mixer Output” channels to the correct timecode input, depending on how your CDJs are connected to the mixer.

More detailed information is available on page 10 of the DJM 900 user manual.

Also if you want to attach large screenshots, try using a decent image hosting site so that they can be seen in full resolution.

Please help! I have 2X CDJ2000 connected to traktor, they work fine.when I plug in my DJM900 NXS the setting utilities shows up.when i go into traktor it will show DJM 900 in the audio setup, but nothing in the input or output routing.
