Maschine + Kontrol S4

Hello People,
i hope would find help here.
I want to get my Maschine connected with Kontrol S4 on Deck D using MIDI Sync > so i can add my created projects to DJ sets.
Maschine should use Audio2 to send audio into Deck D of S4 so effects etc can be used as well.
My setup: S4, Audio 2mk2, Maschine2, OS Win 7 64Bit, MIDI Cable ( traktor S4 out, maschine mk2 in)
I followed many different instructions on the internet but just can’t get the setup running. Can someone please explain me how to set it up on Windows 7 using additional Audio interface (Audio2) for Maschine ?
It seems like Maschine receives MIDI from S4, but once sync mode on Maschine is on, i am not able to play patterns/projects any more. The PLAY button seems dead… Seriously need help !

If you have your midi clock routed property try clicking on the Master Clock Start and Clock Sync buttons in the Master Clock tab (below your left FX).

do this instead,

run a midi cable from the s4 midi out to the s4 midi in
then in traktor create generic midi and set it to send the clock out of traktor s4 midi out
in maschine set the midi in port to be s4 midi in

then enable the clock send on traktor, and enable external clock on maschine
click the clock start button on traktor, and then click the sync button just before bar 1

also you can use the offset settings in traktor to get the clocks in “perfect” sync

make sure you enable the metronome on both so you can hear when the cound is at
