Traktor 2 NON-OBVIOUS Questions

Currently have Traktor Scratch Pro and thinking about upgrading to Traktor 2 but have a few questions

  1. If i get the traktor scratch pro 2 uprade with audio 10 does the audio 10 always require a power supply or only when using 4 timecode decks?

  2. I were to get just the “TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2 Software Upgrade” then later on feel like i need a audio 10 can will i be able to download the files to make a timecode cd?

  3. Will the older multicore cables still work for the new software?

  4. The “TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2 Certified Upgrade Kit” with software DVS plug-in, 2 control vinyl records/2 control CDs (NO AUDIO INTERFACE) for $340 but the
    “TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2 UPGRADE DOWNLOAD” with software, DVS plug-in) for $80

so they charge you $260 for 2 control vinyl records/2 control CDs? can someone explain to me the difference dont want to make the wrong purchase..

thank you for you time :slight_smile:

  1. the a10 should be bus powered, the AC brick is for the THRU feat.

  2. yes, thru the service center

  3. yes they work

  4. $80 upgrade is for TSPRO/DUO or TS users, and the upgrade kit for 340 is for users with the a cert mixer or audio 4, 8 that want the scratch feat.

  1. get the $80 upgrade and the discs/cabling to the cart separately.

thank all of you for the quick response this is why i love this forum :smiley:

so with the 80$ upgrade i would just download the control cds off service center and use my older multicore cables then i will be able to use timecode??

and if i want to upgrade i can always by an audio 10 separately ?

im pretty sure the TA10 has to be powered to a brick. The TA6 works thru USB. im pretty sure thats what i read on the NI forum.

Absolutely always. There is no USB bus option for the TA10.
