S4 Calibration Problem

S4 Calibration Problem
Posted on: 27.11.2011 by Vince Presutto
Hey guys,

Just wondering if this happens to you. When my effect knob is centered it says 51. But when I calibrate the knobs the knob then says it is 50, which is perfect! The problem is when I restart my computer.

Once I load traktor again, the knob value resets to 51 despite it being in the middle. The problem reappears.

So each time I use traktor with my S4 i always have to re-calibrate the knobs.

My question is, is their a way to save this 'calibration' so I don't have to repeat this method over and over again? Or is something just wrong with my S4 effect knob? Thanks everyone!

Yes...

Please shut Traktor down properly. You must close Traktor first then shut the laptop down.

If you just shut the laptop down Traktor may not save the traktorsettings.tsi properly which is why it returns to the state showing 51.

Dude im a bit astounded that you are shutting your Mac down without closing Traktor down properly.

I would believe the one pot/knob is defective since it is just the one.

Have you tried powering down the S4 then restarting it before restarting Traktor?

Have you tried it with the power adapter attached? I don't believe that will help, but using only USB power isn't the way to go wih an S4.

Thanks for the skin like! Either you like it or you hate it lol.

Thanks Van Gogo for replying! I love your S4 overlay! Anyway, yeah it saved it to the collection, sorry you didn't see it a while ago.

What do you believe could the problem be?

I also tried using Controller Editor. No cigar
