out of all my DJ software, only Traktor gives me an issue with extra noise. it kinda sounds like a speaker does when it’s blown, slightly distorted with a crackling type noise.
however, i can assure you they’re not. cuz, nothing else causes this and i crank em a lot higher with other programs and get no problem.
any suggestions? thanks!!

you might have the exact same problem as i did few weeks back:
you need thingy called ground loops isolator, because the noise you hear is most likely influenced by electric power - just to check: if it is that way, the noise dissapears when you play from your battery without the main power cable plugged in.
ohk, I’ve got that little bit of noise when my laptop is plugged in, and it disappears when I unplug it, it’s not that big a deal, but I would like to figure out how to make it go away.
On occasion, I will get a really loud disruptive crackly broken speaker sound, that only goes away if I quit and restart traktor. What needs to be done to fix that horrible sound? I’m terrified that it’ll happen in the middle of a set one day.
That’s a battery issue, PiBurr. You need to change the power settings to run only off of the cord, and not the battery. I can’t remember the setting cause I changed it SO long ago, but there should be a thread or something on the Native Instruments board.
Zeizir i think your having latency issues, try increasing your latency - if that doesnt work try decreasing your latency - if that doesnt work try asio4all drivers.
thanks again for your help fellas! i do appreciate it.
BentoSan suggested i may be having latency issues. from there, it got me to Google-ing “latency traktor pro”.
apparently this fix is by muting the Windows sounds. i found the answer by accident here.
awesome! i’m finally in business. now…the fun part! learning my new Vestax VCI-100!
thanks again!!
well, i spoke too soon
ok…i went back and attempted to adjust the latency in the settings option for Traktor Pro. i COULD HAVE SWORE the number was something like 41000 or 44000 or something like that. when i clicked on it, i got a drop down menu with one option only, 48000. i selected it, and it’s straight now. did i actually fix this? or am i going crazy and it was always set to 48000?
it’s back. i don’t get it! it was gone for a couple of tracks…i went to this forum to post, came back and it reappreard.
I’ve found that by putting the latency up, it helps. but every once in a while it’ll come back for a track. I just mess with the latency a bit again and it seems to go away. I don’t know if I’m solving the core problem, but it’s a workaround fix that helps for now.
I had a similar problem.It would happen when I would load a new track into Traktor Pro and the software is analyzing the track. Id get this weird static. then when traktor was done analyzing the track, it would go away. lasted about 2-3 seconds.
Hi, how are you?
My problem is that Traktor gives me extra noise (slightly distorted with a crackling type noise) is worse when im trying to record something (external rec). All my software are up to date. Im pretty confident that my cabeling is correct (multicore cables), issue appears with or without laptop battery charger (cant be ground loops isolator)I thought it’d have been latency issue, but there is no improvment either after increasing or decreasing latency. I’ve have also switched off all windows sounds, didnt help. I’d be greatfull if someone could sort my problem out. Help!!!
Thanks

Karo
