Very low volume on recording in traktor.
Very low volume on recording in traktor. Posted on: 27.05.2013 by Mi Gabele Well there are many post's about it but I could'nt find a solution for this one.When I record with traktor using x1600 mixer I get very low recording volume and even if I increase the gain level of recording there is no significant increase in volume. Everything is set to external recording and I record everything using D deck of FX channel which you can set up in you mixer and traktor preferences. I might missing something here so I'll check it out after work if there is more stuff about recording in mixer's manual. Thanks. | |

What about Rec Out terminals on x1600 is there has to be something connect in order to record in traktor?
If I remember correctly, since one of the latest Traktor versions (2.5.x or 2.6.x ?) the record volume is now also affected by Traktor's main volume knob. So make sure that both Traktor-knobs (Main volume + mix recorder gain) are adjusted. On the X1600 itself you can adjust some levels here : o) Utility -> (1) Audio -> (7) USBAudio -> beginning at (4) or o) Utility -> (1) Audio -> (8) D. Out --------------------------------------------------------- You can find some details about this in the manual: --------------------------------------------------------- 7-4 Output Level ---> Selects the USB audio output level. 7-5 CH Input Level ---> Selects the level when USB audio is input into Channel 1 |

| Latoria Kavulich 29.05.2013 | glad you got it sussed |
| Alphonso Deitchman 28.05.2013 | You still need to use one of the 4 upstream channels of the mixer for the recording, so it doesn't make a difference to the number of decks available if you use Input Deck D or FX Send. Neither option will affect how many Traktor decks can be output to the mixer. Connecting the Rec Out to a physical input using RCA cables would however take up one of your mixer channels. |
| Mi Gabele 28.05.2013 | After messing around with it we got a winner! That was a 7-4 Output Level ---> Selects the USB audio output level option. I had to set it on x1600 at +20db and now the damn volume while recording is back to normal! The input FX send thing is usefull as well, but probably all the knobs on deck D or channel 7/8 will adjust the recording levels. Thanks for the help, seems like there will be no more problems with this one (hopefully). It is time to disappear for a moment ) |

| Mi Gabele 28.05.2013 | Right I did all the knobs, my settings are ok, everything is set up properly like channels to 1/2,3/4 etc... and D deck is set to REC. Settings are set up to external mode, and the recording device is deck D or channel 7/8 on my mixer. I got gain knobs for every channel and they are really enought for a boost, I use XLR connections and that is the only connections I use on my mixer plus usb cable ofcourse. What about Rec Out terminals on x1600 is there has to be something connect in order to record in traktor? There is one strange thing about recording as I set for example deck C to Rec which is 5/6 channel on my mixer and select the other channel for recording like D in TRAKTOR which is not even set up to REC it still records but at the same very very low volume. Now I'm confused again. Thanks. |

| Isa Erik 28.05.2013 | what is your master volume knob in traktor set to? gain knobs on x1600? can you post your traktor settings? |
| Latoria Kavulich 28.05.2013 | well i found this over on the NI community
http://www.native-instruments.com/kn...Denon+DN-X1600 i'm in bed atm but i will have a play around tomorrow and lets see if we can help you out |
| Mi Gabele 28.05.2013 | I'll try the utility thing later, probably it is with the mixer's soundcard. Jester I know that there are too many problems with 1600's soundcard, but I have spent some time on it and it is working perfectly now. But to be honest if I had more money, I would go for audio card I can boost the sound with any other software after the mix is finished, but it sounds a bit distorted even if it is -1 db, so that does'nt work well. |
| Latoria Kavulich 28.05.2013 | yeah you can change the channel input levels etc in the utility. +/- 6db i believe. i still use the audio 6 to record from my 1600. |
| Alphonso Deitchman 28.05.2013 | Does the mixer have any setting utility either on the mixer or the computer? There might be some headroom/attenuation setting you can change somewhere. Otherwise just boost the volume in software while you re-encode the file. |
