I upgraded to 2.6.2 and had no issues with it until last Sat night. I was playing a 4 hour set and everything was fine until 20 mins to go then I got the spinning beachball. The music kept playing on one deck but I could not load anything into the other deck. Luckily the venue has an ipod in the office and was able to switch the music over while I did a reboot.
This is the first time Traktor has ever crashed on me and of course it was during a gig. I am not sure if it was Traktor 2.6.2 or my laptop. Seems like ever since I upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion it has slowed my machine down. I did upgrade the RAM to 8GB but that has not helped.
My set up consists of Macbook Pro mid 2010, 2.4GHz with 8GB RAM. Kontrol Z2, X1 and one Technics 1200. I am taking the Mac to the apple store today to see if they can tell me anything about what happened last Sat night. I need to get this resolved quickly because I have gigs this Fri & Sat night and don’t need this to happen again.
On Mac, open Console (search for it in spotlight).
Open - User Diagnostic Reports (you will see your Traktor Crash log)
Highlight it and chose ‘Save Copy As’ to your desktop.
Then open the Native Instruments/Traktor/Logs folder and make a copy of the Traktor.Log paste it to your desktop.
Attach both Logs to the Support form. Use ‘Technical Support’ not any other support form.
It sounds like alot of users are having the same issue from upgrading from 2.6.1… I chatted w/ NI and they told me anytime I load a mono track it will make Traktor crash… They said they will fix this bug in 2.6.3 but for now be careful on playing mono tracks, cause the only way around is to restart Traktor on a crash… I’ve used Mp3Repair and Audacity to switch my major playable samples and tracks from mono to stereo… Hope this helps!
Hi ppl i currently use vdj pro 7, but got the trial version of traktor and really sucks analyzed tracks never get the info in the id3 tags, some tracks barely analyzed and the info is not there, crashes, crashes cpu is barelly 20%, also i got some red flag about images too big or too small (who cares?) also the sound gets glitches, beeps, and so on…
On the good side im not sure if because looks sooooo nice i’m determined to make it work soo… here i am reading post after post in how to solve all this problems.
