**traktor question!**

Im have some serious trouble with traktor Pro.. I have installed several controllers over the last few weeks and i think that may be most of my problems..  
My question is can i un-install and re-install with out any registration problems?

AND… will it reinstall with the original factory presets? (like get rid of all the previous controllers files i installed)

What computer and OS are you using? What are you doing when Traktor crashes? What controllers are you using? There is a mono switch in preferences, make sure that’s not checked. It will install to original factory presets.

what soundcard are you using? something external like audio2? or the computers built in one?

if the 2nd, i think that’s your problem right there. traktor can be a bit fussy sometimes when it comes to soundcard switching and audio routing.

Just to be sure, check the following on Deck B (which has no sound): no FX plugged in that could remove the sound, filter and key off, gain ok, pan (long shot).

Bad speakers? Do you get the sound always or just in Traktor? If only in Traktor, do you get it on all four decks or just one deck? Is an FX turned on?

the computers right now.. but i just bought and audio4, and a new vci-100 SE from DJTT which is coming in on Tuesday..

This is another reason why im just wondering if i should start from scratch with the reinstall… get rid of all the previous controllers i had installed just to make damn sure i dont have all kinds of problems when i set up my new controller and audio card… Whats your thoughts Brad?

starting from scratch seems best way to go imo, should clear all the errors out.

do this once audio 4 arrives as traktor install has a section for setting that up. once that’s all sorted, plugin the vci and load up the tsi. then add other controllers one at a time. build it up stage by stage.
