Me too. That’s why I’m excited now.
I’ve been already using Traktor in sync with Live for two years without having problems. But I think that this new device should give us better performances… 
How did you do that?
It’s posts like that ^, that muddy the water and make this discussion more complicated than it has to be…
I use FireWire soundcard, that gives me low output latency also with 512 samples. with this value my Mac can handle both programs without problems. Also I have an high performance ssd on my Mac and I use traktor virtual output for the sync. No Ethernet, no midi cables. And last but not least, I use ableton drum rack instead of machine vst because it takes less resources.
Least least. I have Lion on my Mac that is, in my opinion, a really slim os, perfect for audio application. I run traktor 2.6.8 and ableton 9.1.7 
Ah - I’ve been trying to route Traktor DVS into Live. I can’t allow for that much latency when I’m scratching. 
I must admit, I’m pretty jealous of the non-DVS guys that can put together a Traktor/Live combo-setup. Being able to take advantage of Lives sampling, routing and VST hosting capabilities must be ridiculous fun.
By the way, how one puts together a Traktor/Live combo-setup?
How to Synchronize TRAKTOR and Ableton Live
Great, thanks hermano
That just tempo syncs the 2 pieces of software.
I want to route individual Traktor Decks to individual channels in Live. I can’t believe there’s not a decent Win software solution.
Ableton Tutorial: Routing Traktor to Ableton using Jack for Windows
The bridge. More mud.
Problem is not so much to route audio to ableton but rather having a stable midi clock that does not fluctuate (with windows)
Word on the street is that Jack doesn’t work on Win8. 
That REALLY sucks.
Jack worked on win8.1 for me…
Really? I will definitely give it a go, then!
Any idea if it works on Win10? (But to be honest, if I get it working with Win8, that’ll convince me NOT to update…)
lol. I have no clue. Refuse to upgrade to win10. Took enough time to get everything working with win 8.1. It has taken 4 updates from Microsoft just to get all of my VST’s running correctly.
Ouch…
the word on the street is irrelevant in technical matters. It either works or it doesnt.
