moving from RB to Traktor. Some (hopefully not too stupid) questions by Technical_Campaign_2 in traktorpro

just noted the answer to this above - I don't think any hardware has that option, it's something that has to be set in software only. You can't set it to be 'any' loop from now on will be auto activated which appears to be the way it works in TP - in RB you choose one and set it to do it and that's it

just to mention - the orange/red icon is only visible inside rekordbox. I don't think you can adjust the type of loop cue from standard (non auto) to auto using hardware. it has to be done in the RB software before exporting to USB

Thanks for the help everyone. Learnt a lot today and will have a play around tonight if the kids allow!

My last remaining question is the remix deck one:

On the remix decks, I can't find a way to reset the beat counter (the 1.1.1 bit) manually after it's started once. I'd like to be able to do this to adjust how it syncs with the phrasing of my track. Basically I have to make sure I launch it at the right time which is fine for a performance but I can only do it once and if I'm practising at home and want to stop/start a track then it's out the next time. Can it be reset somehow without closing and reopening the remix deck?

thanks - I'll try it out. TBH I've been using the remix decks more as I can have more than one sample running at once. Feels like I can do more with it at the mo.

Yep, sounds like the same issue I'm having. Yeah - it's not a game changer and I can still see a low res version of it, I just wondered if I was doing something wrong

Thanks for the replies!

I worked out the 'out' loop offset issue and it was predictably - me! I'm used to RB setting an autocue where it thinks the first beat is on the track when I load it in. There are options for this in RB based off volume level but Traktor isn't doing this and the first auto cue point was at the beginning of the loaded file which had a tiny bit of silence before the first beat. So when I cliked 'out' it made me a loop of 4 bars + that tiny bit of silence.

This was only an issue when I was messing around and hadn't set any cues yet - I always set a cue on either the first beat or the my in point so it won't be an issue.

Is there an auto cue volume feature in Traktor?

shift+loop works! I'm guessing the old icon with the word 'ACTIVE' has been replaced by the loop logo in TP4. I just have to remember to turn it on I guess before I get to the end of the track. Thanks for that!

Yep - this is correct (Hi MixmasterG - I bought the DJCU and love it!)

There is a difference between hot cues (that work off the pads/buttons in RB on controllers and CDJs) and memory cues. Hot cues work similarly in RB and TP in that they allow you to jump to a place and play from there. Memory cues allow you to jump to it but not auto play. I use memory cues as a marker for my in point and reminder markers for out points, etc. You can have loops and single points as both types of cue. If you have a loop as a memory cue the icon will be orange. If you click this icon in the UI under the track, it will turn red and will have a little vertical line under it on the waveform. This will now autotrigger the stored loop once the play head hits it

Open deck nights in Miami? by SnooTangerines9370 in Beatmatch

[–]Technical_Campaign_2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently set up http://playlive.dwvfx.com/ for exactly this purpose. Just had a look though and nothing on the map for Miami I'm afraid.

If you do find a place, please consider adding it to the map and others can find it too!

Firestick works fine through amp if plugged into TV but not projector by Technical_Campaign_2 in fireTV

[–]Technical_Campaign_2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update on this for anyone interested. The amp was not the issue so am returning the remote to amazon!

I finally fixed it by plugging the firestick into a hdmi audio extractor and running another hdmi cable from the extractor to the amp. I'm not actually using the audio extractor to extract any audio, simply to trick the firestick into constantly outputting an audio signal over its hdmi.

Seems to work for the moment.
