| Donn Huelster 09.07.2012 | Any specific tips on connecting Traktor S4 to an external mixer. My settings - * Traktor s/w master gain: -6db * S4 Hardware knob: vertical 12 o clock position * Mixer channel gain: 1/4 (9 o clock position) * Master volume: vertical 1/2 12 o clock. I get an over powering bass and the master out doesnt sound right too much of hum. Despite of lowering the s/w master gain upto -15db doesnt help, have to cut the low on the external mixer and on s4's mixer. Any help would be much appreciated. cheers - facebook.com/dj5wap My setup - Macbook Pro i7, 4Gb RAM. TPro 2.1.3 with S4, 4 channel Pioneer external mixer |
| Chuck Intravia 24.02.2012 | From what I read in the comments, Master on the S4: -10 to -6 Gain to level your tracks, NOT to crank them up. If you need more volume, gain up the mixer, but avoid clipping. If it's not loud enough, engineer (therefore PA system) has to turn up. Basically, the latest in the sound chain must be the loudest. Get it ? |
| Diego Aggen 23.02.2012 | Thx Pedro My master was at -3.3db. I resset my gain back to -10.1 db It explains somewhat but it does say what should be done when u are connected to the mixer. Should I crank the gains on the channel on the mixer or on the s4 for example. It was helpful info. Can u tell me what your setting are? |
| Chuck Intravia 23.02.2012 | http://www.digitaldjtips.com/2011/03...evel-settings/ Boo Yah. Best explanation out there. Bottom line is never go beyond 0Db on trakor. From -10 to -6 seems the right spot. If you're missing punch, gain it up. If there's a decent sound engineer, he will know how to crank it. |
| Diego Aggen 20.02.2012 | as it is i have the headroom on traktor at 0. Where should i have it at you thoughts |
| Hailey Westen 19.02.2012 | adjust your internal (software) volume to give you more freedom and head room with your external (hardware) volume... they are two different things |
| Diego Aggen 19.02.2012 | As i said. I find when i connect ie DJM 800. I have to basically max my volume on the s4 and bring up the channel volume im hooked it into, then if thats not enough to where its good as the person whos ont he other channel using ie serato or traktor then the trims to increase I want to know what is the best way to achieve good volume when using the s4 |
| Randell Juna 19.02.2012 | what do you by mean by 'efficient volume'? |
