**Numark NS6 + Trakor** Please ignore. I returned my ns6 for an s4 Hey all, Just bought myself a Numark NS6, but I love Traktor and don’t want to switch to Serato. I downloaded the .tsi files from [http://numarkns6.com/support](http://numarkns6.com/support) under the “software” tab, but I’m still not getting any response from Traktor after import. I’m following the manual instructions exactly “1. See the NS6 Quickstart Guide for instructions on setting up your NS6. 2. Connect NS6 to your computer and open Traktor 2. 3. Go to File􏰀Preferences. Click the Import button at the bottom of the window. 4. Select NS6Traktor2Sampler.tsi. Click Open to open the file. 5. In the window that appears, check Audio Device Settings. (Other required boxes will already be checked – leave as they are.) 6. Click OK. 7. Select the Decks tab in the left-hand panel of the Preferences window. 8. Under Deck Flavor, select Track Deck for all four decks. 9. Click the Import button at the bottom of the window. 10. Select NS6Traktor2-4DeckAudio.tsi. Click Open to open the file. 11. In the window that appears, check Audio Device Settings. (Other required boxes will already be checked – leave as they are.) 12. Click OK and close the Preferences window.” **What do I need to do to get my NS6 up and running on Traktor 2??** I’ve already done a clean install on Traktor 2… I’m hopeless here! ---

I’m about 6 imports in. Sometimes the blue “CTRL” lights up other times it doesn’t, other than that…no response. ---

Learn to love Itch, or return your NS6. If you didn’t want to switch to Serato, you shouldn’t have bought an itch controller. It’s midi mappable, but it’s in no way designed with Traktor’s functions in mind, especially in the area of FX. Native Instruments Kontrol S4 Denon MC6000 Pioneer DJ-T1 Xone DX Those are all Traktor controllers, and can be had for the same price or less. Even if they don’t accept a return, they might let you trade. ---

I am aware of the other options. I bought the NS6 because I liked it more than the other controls you listed.
