Please HELP! Mixtrack Pro and Traktor DUO 2

Please HELP! Mixtrack Pro and Traktor DUO 2

(DUO 2)Okay, So the mixtrack pro has been working fine for the last couple months, except for no headphone cue. But after trying to fix this and screwing around with the output settings, I cant get ANY sound out of anything. I’m really new at this and freaking out. I have a show to do in 3 hours! Traktor is saying check output routing…and I still don’t know what to do. I’ve tried Going into Output settings and changing things but nothing seems to work. Please HELP! I’m Using a Mac. I just want sound! :confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::confused::rage::rage::rage::rage::rage:

Your best bet is to take things step by step.

Check audio device settings in the picture below. Should be something with a mixtrack pro in the the name of the device.

Check mixing mode and out put routing. Should be internal, and the four channels should be routed to the four available audio outputs in mix track pro. I just assumed the names so you know what you’re looking for - I’m not sure what they are really called.

Now with the master volume up,

And the headphone volume up,

With something playing in the decks,

You should get some sound or your device may be broken.

Thanks…

The only Problem Is that The Output settings dont say anything near that, they say front left, front right, back left, and back right. and I dont know what they mean..

You mean you got sound or not yet?

If you got sound I guess that’t what the outputs are called, but if you still don’t, it looks like you are selecting the wrong audio device in “Audio Device”. What does it say in there?

Still no sound, and I have Mixtrack pro selected. This really sucks.

Got Sound! Thank you so much! Now I just have to figure out pre cueing!

That’s great!

Cueing sound is controlled by whether the headphone cue button is pushed, and how the mixing knob is twisted in the picture I posted above.

If the mixing knob is in center you hear both the master output and cue, and turning to either end gives you “only master” and “only cue”

Okay. But For my master output settings the only two choices i have are output L and output R. So I have nothing to put in output monitor.

What happened to the “front left, front right, back left, and back right”?

I changed my Audio device to Built in…

No, no, that won’t cut it. Built in only has 2 channels, you need four.

Stick to the Mixtrack pro out puts. Route the two “fronts” to monitor and the two “backs” to master.

Where are you checking for the sounds, by the way? Was just curious because when you said you got sound with the built in, you were simply getting sound from the computer (or the headphone connected to the computer) and that’s obviously not what you need for your gig later?

The two "Back"s out put audio from the master out connectors on the back of the Mixtrack pro, and the two "front"s output audio from the headphone jack located on the front of Mixtrack Pro. You need to connect speakers and headphones to those jacks to test if you are getting audio.

That did it! Thank you !

Wish me Luck tonight! And yes I was testing without my speakers..;/ But hey you learn by failed attempts right? I’m sorry for all of your trouble, you have no idea how much you’ve helped me!

Well you"re definitely in luck tonight because someone tweeting about your post was the first thing that came up when I searched “Traktor” in twitter…

Hope you have a good gig.

And don’t worry, it’s only a small family party…haha

And do you think you could link me to that tweet? i’d like to thank them too…

Maybe even better because if it was at a club, the DJ before you might have been able to help.

The tweet was by @fazz360 but I wouldn’t worry too much because it looks like an automated tweet of new threads in DJTT.

Very true haha, I want to thank you again though for all of your help…
