Need help with setup!
Need help with setup! Posted on: 27.12.2012 by Maricruz Bailor I am trying to connect my CDJ 100s to connect with traktor on my macbook, however I can't get any sound to come through the speakers from traktor.I am using: Macbook pro 2 x Pioneer CDJ100s 1 x Pioneer DJM 300s mixer Traktor 2 Soundcard I also use a Cambridge Audio Topaz AM5 amp, and 2x Aviano 1 speakers. Sound is successfully coming through my CDJs to speakers, but I can't get what is happenning on my decks to the visuals on traktor? Do I have to sync/calibrate something? I've tried playing tracks through traktor straight into my speakers and the sound works fine. I'm a total novice when it comes to setting up things like this, to the point where I don't know if I've just wired this wrong. Are you able to somehow help me with my setup? Any help is much appreciated. | |

Or would an upgrade in the near future to cdj400s work with the audio 2/traktor scratch pro? What do you mean by being part of dvs? Like I say you're speaking to a layman here. Thanks for everybody's help so far. |

Not 100% sure how well they work, squidot makes it sound like the CDJ 100s don't work like the others. I have no experience with them, I just know how CDJs normally work with traktor dvs = digital vinyl system, aka the timecode CD's in your case |

| Ronnie Brucks 28.12.2012 | If u plug in headfones u have to restart tracktor |
| Cole Maroto 28.12.2012 | what do you mean by traktor 2 soundcard? do you have the audio 2? in order to use the cdj 100s you will need traktor scratch pro with the control cds and a traktor scratch certified mixer or soundcard (audio 6/8/10). i would research it if i were you though because my cdj 100s didnt really like being a part of dvs if i remember correctly and some other people have the same issues upon doing a quick google search. |
