**Traktor Timecode issue** encountered a strange issue for the first time last night and I can’t seem to find any info on it, for some reason, every time I load a new track into the right channel and start playing, it played at about -20%, and I had to switch the turntable over to 45 and pitch it down about 7.5% on the turntable to get it playing regularly. tried recalibrating the control vinyl, restarting traktor, using a different control record, the box in timecode preferences that reads “turntable speed 45rpm” was not checked, and the other channel was playing tracks normally.. nothing on my setup has changed since the last time I used it, and it was really frustrating, yet I haven’t been able to find another mention of this anywhere, perhaps due to terrible googling skills or odd search terms. any thoughts? ---

Haven’t used timecode regularly for awhile, but I was having some random issues like that every once in awhile. It started happening to me when Traktor 2.5 was still fairly new. I still wouldn’t rule out a hardware problem in your situation, but I just wanted to let you know that it wouldn’t surprise me at all if it was a software bug.
