Question about DJM-T1 and Traktor timecodes

So I finally dumped my S4 and am picking up a DJM-T1. Currently, I gig with a DJM-800 and an audio 8, but I wanted to downsize the mixer and ditch the sound card when gigging. There’s also the fact that taking less expensive equipment out to a bar is a bonus too.
The question I have is will my MK 1 timecode vinyls work with the T1, or do I have to pick up a couple of new MK 2 timecodes?

I owned a T1 for a while and MK1 vinyls worked fine. I don’t think the timecode has anything to do with the hardware, it’s software that effects what vinyl you can use.

Also the T1 is a great mixer especially with the price drop and firmware update. I sold mine to get a Z2 for post fader fx. Pioneer had stated in the past that post fader fx wouldn’t be possible in the T1…then they drop a firmware update enabling it FML haha.

Definitely not the software. I’m on the new 2.6.1, and my MK 1’s work fine. It’s been narrowed down to the soundcard IMO, and that’s what’s inside the T1 essentially.
Anyone have any more info on this? I guess the T1 will work ok with my MK 1’s, but now I’m curious as to what exactly causes the first timecode version to not work with the new version of Traktor.

Didn’t you just say that the MK1’s work? What’s the issue?

If you owned TSP before v2.1.1 then MK1s will work.
If not then it’s MK2s only.

please re-read the first post.
