Like the S4.How will a good exit strategy look like for this mess in a club or a Live Set? External Mixer with a plugged in "whatever" (mp3 player, TT, another controler?? Other ideas? Or is there anything possible with another idea? Sorry bad english and beginner Thy in advance Ramirez Son | |

| Candy Vardy 03.01.2013 | Well I never plug into the mixers main outputs. I always plug my RCA's into one of the mixers channels. Sometimes if theres not much space in the booth, I will unplug one of the CDJ's and take the RCA from the CDJ and plug it into my S2. Haven't had any issues up to now with my little arrangement! |
| Ellis Plischke 03.01.2013 | but what if you have the clubs cables main rca or 1/4 cables plugged in the back of your s2 and not the cdj's? Is this assuming the club has two sets of outputs? |
| Candy Vardy 03.01.2013 | I normally do something very similar to that beaubryte does. I load up a CD in one of the CDJ, and que it up to one of my recorded mixes. If something has to happen I hit play on the CDJ a.s.a.p. and then that will give me time to try to fix whatever went wrong. So far so good though! |

It starts a track with a small intro to compensate any hard wind down, then a rising effects fades in and it builds up a track to a mid set vibe. Each Track on my custom CD is about 10 minutes long. Meanwhile I can reboot my computer or decide to play with CD's. Luckily I never had a crash live. |
| Addie Engbrecht 26.12.2012 | Heres the thing, if traktor crashes, your only option is to play something off your laptop/Itunes and make sure the default soundcard for your laptop is the S2's, then you can have a song going while you re-open Traktor. If your laptop crashes, you're fucked, cause the S2 can't work without it, you would have to wait for it to reboot |
