Coming from a software development background, I’ve learned to be very patient before adopting new software. It’s always important to resist getting drawn into a new version because it has new flashy features. The way companies like Native Instruments release software (and they’re not the only company) is usually to quickly test to meet some deadline, release, let the users find the rest of the bugs. I’m not about to be the guy doing quality assurance for Native Instruments during my set.
Wow. Great insight.
Tried that one at first, didn’t work. I always search before I start whining. 
Yups. Same here. But I thought, what the heck, let’s try it. 
Thanks for emphasizing! I have been trying al sorts of measures. Even tried to design CD Jog settings.
Also what sucks even harder about the tempo bending:
You have to let Traktor get your songs back on track slowly, you cannot twist or bend it yourself.
Ah well, f- it.. I will add another night of agony tonight.
Who knows, I might find something that will help me and I will be laughing about these two posts here.
I’m also in the software industry, but my company would never release an application without thorough functionnal testing. Even though there can be bugs in a release, the core functionnality will always be bullet proof. Ok, I am in the financial world, where bugs can have huge consequences; but for a company like NI which is kind of market leader and is backed up by a large amount of djs,
releasing something public with troubles in audio continuity and sound quality is as bad as if calculations were made wrong in financial software.
Remember as well that rock solid stability was amongst the main selling points when they launched the traktor pro advertising campaign.
Anyway, when they will have fixed their issues, made configuration better (I wish they had a more visual keyboard/controller mapping screen), and added
some small but missed features, I think the software will be great. They should have gone public beta, at least for registered users.
Bump, anybody?
“When” they have fixed their issues? People were still bitching about the major issues in 3.4.1 before TPro was released. If you follow the NI Traktor forums it’s painfully apparent that NI’s testing is inadequate, they ignore major and consistent gripes from their beta testing pool in favor of their own murky agenda, releases have essentially been public betas since at least 3.0, and major features have never worked as advertised. I’ll make an Amazing Criswell Prediction: NI will never “fix” TPro. They’ll improve it, and in the process they’ll add new bugs while not fixing old ones, and lose functionality while gaining poorly working new functions. Just like every release since 2.6. I still use v2.5.3 – not because I’m especially crazy about it, but because it’s the only one I trust. Two decks working is a thousand times better than four decks crashing.
maybe some1 could help me here.
was wondering if some1 was running traktor pro on a 15" with a resolution of 1920 x 1200.
the resolution should allow that you see 4 full decks, the fx panel & the browser.
i know that on a 17" you can read everything fine, but on a 15" it could become to small and would result in me using a microscope
15" mac books only go to 1440 x 900
Yeah, that is my problem with it as well, Unfortunately 
I would love to tweak the GUI so it all becomes smaller somehow…
i think you understand me wrong
i’m looking @ a laptop with a 15" that has this resolution (1920x1200) i’m only concerned if i still can read from it when it has this high resolution 
Oh well, I did understand you wrong. To make things look BIGGER in Traktor Pro is not a problem, its making things smaller that is… so I guess you are safe haha 
yes but making it bigger (threw changing it’s resolution) is a waste of its potential and then i may be better of with a big 17" laptop with the same resolution
and i know you can change the font in traktor but that isn’t the case for every letter if i’m right.
Im on a 17" full high def and love it, i could go with a slightly higher resolution so i could bit both Ableton and Traktor on the same window better - but i do alright.
i know i’ll be safe with a 17" . but then i’ll loose some portability and that’s just what i was doubting about with a 15" 1920 x 1200.
why dont u use the browser toggle? when im usin 4 decks on my 1680 x 1050 i use it all the time, its a rly nice thing
i know all the solutions !
i just want to know if it’s still readable on 1920x1200 on a 15" ;(
is it possible to save cue points,beat-grids etc. within the mp3-tags like it was in Traktor 3 via “Write File Tags (Async)” ?
Go to the shop, ask if you can install a version of Traktor before you buy it
but it’s going to be a alienware or a dell precision
but maybe i’ll go to a shop where i could see something like it.
I have actually done this before. I mean, it does not matter if its not the laptop you are going to buy, you just need something with the same specs (in this case the resolution). You just need to be convincing that you are serious about your buy. Naturally, do not chose the shop where you go most often, but another one. I mean, its not too much to ask for if you are about to buy a laptop for a couple of hundreds… IMO
If your talking to me i do use the browser toggle, well in traktor 3 i did, in Traktor Pro i havent found that function just yet. Its probably staring me in the face
