How to get “Sync” to reset on loading?

Hi guys,

Trying to figure out a way to fix a small nuisance i have with Traktor.

OK, so i have a track running, synced to the master track, so sync is active.

I stop the synced track and load a new track.

The new track has sync automatically turned on as a a residual of the previous track.

I don’t want my tracks to have sync automatically active. Although it is usually the case that i will want the track synced it is easy enough for me to press “sync”. However it is a pain in the ass when i am doing a cut or something to have to go in and reset the track tempo.

i have checked “reset all deck controls when loading track” but that doesn’t seem to make a difference. Anyone know if this is possible to acheive? Seems like something that would be pretty simple.

I honestly never thought that anyone used sync for any more than a split second every so often ?

But anyhoooo you could set up a new map for sync on the same button as your “load” so that it sets sync to direct zero value on track load.

Tick the option: reset deck controls when load (it will also deactivate loops if you lef it on). It’s under the Loading tab

Well i have my sync button set to “toggle”, so if it’s on then i generally just leave it on. Do you have it set as “hold” or something?

At present i don’t actually have a load button on my setup, but that might be something i have to consider. Thanks.

As i mentioned i checked this and it doesn’t seem to affect sync. It will reset everything else but won’t reset sync.

sorry, missed that bit :stuck_out_tongue: try a clean install or trashing the prefs file

What version of traktor are you using?

1.2.7

So is this not normal?

I just checked in 1.2.7 and checking reset deck controls doesn’t work. Pretty sure you’ll have to turn it off manually. Are you using a load button? You could map it to unsync when you load a track.

:-/

Yeah i think that might be what i’m going to have to do. THanks guys for all the help.

Or just map the sync button to Hold instead of toggle that way it will turn it self off whenever you release the button.

Unless the controller itself has a “hard toggle” on that key.

Setting the modifier on the sync button to Play = 0 mode = direct value = 0 might do the trick ?
