CapFive Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 ok guys, ive learnt Traktor all the way through, some pretty crazy stuff compared to my shitty virtual DJ....i'll post some tutorials for the noobs in here pretend this is your own controller or just ignore the controller part, search the web for your mapping, someone has usually done one and the mapping will save you SO much time, you can then tweak this to your likingmost basic first is making sure your beat grid matches with the master tempo, this will be so important for anything be it effects, loops or just mixing in... traktor uses this as LAW, if it is wrong, you will have a hard time using traktorthis video is about cue points... we all know and love them, we use them on all equipments (except turntables....) check it out it was pretty helpfulhere we have looping, you can only do this if you beats match up, like in the other tutorialok so now you have watched those you are now set up to be able to DJ the basics, but you're not done yet, traktor is huge, there is so much to learn...as i find more tutorials i will add them, but i find these ones helped me alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapFive Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 this one is a bit hard but i hope some traktor guru can solve this...how would i record my set if i was using my hercules RMX consolehere is what the rear of the device looks likeat the moment i have the traktor settings on internal mixing, and using 1-2 for master out, and 3,4 for my cue... my ASIO driver is buggy and causes my computer to lag and the sound slows down...should i maybe plug a headphone cable into the RCA 1-2 out and then into my microphone and go the audacity trick? as i only want to record when i have my PA's hooked up so i can record a live set thanks for the help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lloydc Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 why not just record internally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapFive Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 just figured it out Record your set with s/Card midi controller + Traktor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevChelios Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Seems like a bit of a retarded way to do it, cause you have to buy a heap more adapters, you only need two with the way I described, and you'll get much better quality recording into traktor, 3mm jacks tend to create a lot of noise... My humble opinion of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lloydc Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 am I missing something here?why can't you record internally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevChelios Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 You cant record internally with traktor (if you can Im unaware of how), you have to go out of your mixer into the soundcard and setup the preferences so that it will record from one of the inputs.

CapFive Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 this is the disagreement i am gaving with jaz... can you clarify in my thread chev? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 seems pretty straight forward. this is obviously for CDJ's and TT's as he has an external soundcard, because Cap doesnt use 1 you should follow similar steps but probly just change the external channel preferences if that fails cap this may work, set your RMX as normal with traktor or serato, but put this RCA Y adapter in between your RMX and line in so that it still runs to line in but then you also have a signal splitting from the line in into another lead that you will run to the record in slot on your PC...in theory that should work...

ChevChelios Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I wasn't aware that you weren't using a soundcard... awkward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
