Hi im hoping you guys on here can help me solve my problem…ive been getting a kontrol s4 and using it with Traktor 2.5 but just aquired a pair of 1210’s, how do i upgrade traktor to traktor scratch??
According to many shops the TRAKTOR KONTROL S4 Scratch Upgrade kit is now discontinued so how the hell can i get the upgrade, i already have the timecode vinyl my friend gave me??
that is not correct. i use traktor scratch pro 2.5 but i currently do not utilize the timecode functionality (it’s a long story…). in essence they are exactly the same software, the only difference is the scratch version allows for use of timecode, and costs extra to unlock.
dripstep is right…you have to buy the upgrade kit. if you already have control vinyl you could probably shoot ni an email and explain your situation to see if they will cut you deal on the software upgrade only. it could happen but i kinda doubt it. or you can post in the buy and sell section to see if anyone will sell you the software upgrade sans vinyl.
no worries. i originally had an audio 8 i bought with tsp to rip my vinyl collection which i never really got around to. i tried to get away with getting an x1 and the included version of traktor 2.5 and see if i could just use my a8 and timecode or apply my old scratch serial but found out i couldn’t do that. luckily they were doing an upgrade sale so i got the tsp 2.5 unlock for like $40.
Im not interested in using a pirate copy, why would i when i have a real copy of traktor!! just wanna know if theres another way of getting scratch without buying upgrade kit.
You have a copy of Traktor, not Traktor Scratch, which is a $120 software upgrade. You’ll need to pay for it or pirate it - you can’t have it both ways.
But don’t pirate it because that’s wrong. Plus it will brick your S4. I’ve seen it happen. Am I lying?
Look on eBay or the Buy/Sell section of the forum to see if somebody is just selling the license. Otherwise you must buy the full kit. It’s not that expensive…
