S4 not responding "ON" in loop length display Posted on: 11.05.2011 by robin loo hey guys. i'm chilling with my bud, spinning a little, when all of a sudden the S4 doesnt respond anymore and the loop length display shows "ON". we fiddled a little bit with the keylock (shift + play) but nothing special. restarting the S4 didnt do the trick, restarting traktor did. i tried searching the problem, but google didnt come up with any good answer. what kind of error message was this? how can we prevent this from happening? and are there any other solutions than restarting traktor? (dont want run into this in a live situation) thanks a lot | |

| Rosalie Novarro 22.01.2012 | hmm havent seen this one yet, but shit like this is completely what makes me terrified to use it at a "real gig"... while i bag on the pioneer gear a lot, its absolutely rock solid stable and has been proven that "it will always work" |
| Ralph Alderette 19.01.2012 | same thing recently happened to me. I went into Traktor Preferences, clicked on the "Kontrol S4" tab at the bottom left, then I clicked the "Restore" button towards the bottom of the window. It's been 3 days, no re-occurrence of the problem. |

But if you experience some strange things happening with your S4's loop control and cue points etc. Try hitting Shift and Browse. This sends and releases the controller from "midi mode". I realized I was hitting shift while my browse mode was still on thanks to a rather stubborn browse button. This solved my primary problem but now I'm having CrossFader issues. Recalibration isn't helping. I would love this damn thing to death if it just worked solidly. Hope this helps someone else! |
| Monroe Escartin 23.05.2011 | I'm also having a problem similar to this. My right sample deck bugged out on me a few weeks back, right before a gig. The loop size was a 9 and sample buttons from 1-4 were all lit up green. couldn't turn them off, or move the loop size. It happened again to me last evening .. the right sample deck was all bugged out. I turned it on today and now the deck will not light up at all, still works but i have no visual on the controller. I really want to find out what the deal is, i just upgraded to T2 scratch pro.. i'm not even going to wanna use it if the s4 is not working right Help us out guys ! |
| Rebbeca Cavener 20.05.2011 | Got my S4 and flight case from DJTT a little over a month ago. I've been loving every minute but just experienced this same error and its driving me completely bonkers. Traktor works fine and will at random go into this mode. Symptoms on my end: -The loop noob will fail to stop at 32 bars and will continually cycle through the measure increments resulting in a discrepancy between the S4 and and the value on screen. -Buttons will not correspond to state on screen, ie: a song will play will the S4 Play LED off, and will turn green as the track is paused. -hot cues will cease to function -the shift button can no longer be used to accesses secondary features and when pressed will only disable all buttons and LED lights except for the Loop Size Display which reads "ON" Any help from the DJTT Crew and community is greatly appreciated. I've got my first midi fighter on the way and just want this headache resolved. Chris Traktor S4, MB 13" |
| robin loo 12.05.2011 | really strange. we'll see if this occurs again.. hopefully not |
| Libbie Deutchman 11.05.2011 | Weird. Sounds like it's stuck in MIDI Mode. Never heard of that happening before. |
| Nedra Fresneda 11.05.2011 | Try deleting and adding again the default map, since the display only works while using it. |
| Leeanna Ayla 11.05.2011 | I've seen this a couple times not sure of the exact cause, but never while using it. It's always after hotplugging the S4 in. |
