Gain Knob resets to 50% everytime
Gain Knob resets to 50% everytime Posted on: 29.06.2011 by Joana Ellingworth i dont know if this is a problem or its meant to work out that way. i started noticing when i got a pair of speakers. I didn't run into this before when i played the sound thru my laptop speakers. It just seems like a hassle to turn the gain knob clockwise to 100% everytime i swith tracks (on either decks). I have the 1.4 arcade se with the most up to date mapping. Has anyone else experienced this? | |

Joana Ellingworth 12.07.2011 | @fullenglishpint.. It's my vci's time of the month again and its actin up. No, the tempo fader doesn't move when my tracks start to speed up. Also the bpm remains that same when this happeneds |

Joana Ellingworth 29.06.2011 | you know im not sure because i selected not to have it visable in the settings menu. I'll make the faders visible so that in the future when i run into the problem i will be able to see if they move or not. |
Tatum Ansaldo 29.06.2011 | is the tempo fader in the software moving when it happens? |
Joana Ellingworth 29.06.2011 | *This problem occurs about 1 out of every 5 times i open Traktor |
Joana Ellingworth 29.06.2011 | I apologize for that confusing opening entry. I thought that 100% meant that the dial had to be all the way right. @OneLove.. thanks for clarifing that (normal) is at 12 o'clock. @Fullenglishpint.. yea the sound was terrible. turns out that i just had a bad habbit of turning the gain dial all the way right to compensate for my LOW SPEAKER VOLUME! which i always keep on low. haha rookie mistake @Mr.Drummer.Boy.. I'm an idiot. thankks for the input though i also have another question.. Does this ever happen to you? When i pull up traktor and load up a song and play it in either deck a or b the song picks up speed for about 3 or 5 seconds then goes normal. This repeats throughout the whole song. Ive tried to restore the original bpm by Shift+Centering the tempo faders?(don't know what their called). But doing so doesn't work at all. I just restart it a couple times then It'll go away... just wondering if theirs a way to fix the problem so that it wont come up again. |
Marva Cupid 29.06.2011 | I don't know if I understood your question properly but you might have the "set all deck setting back to original when new song is loaded" option checked. |
Tatum Ansaldo 29.06.2011 | If you're turning the gain all the way to the right every time you'll end up distorting your sound. If you don't understand gain, turn on autogain and leave it alone for now. |
Lane Ylitalo 29.06.2011 | I hate to ask this but you explained the issue in a bit of a confusing manner.. do you mean that the normal point for gain to equal 100% now equals 50% every time you move it there? Traktor has an auto-gain feature that matches each tracks volume to prevent things from sounding too far out of whack so that might be your issue... if not you should check your .tsi file to make sure the knob's sensitivity is programmed properly. If you aren't great at traktor mappings you might want to have a look around djtt (google search them for mapping advice) or just re-import your tsi a few times and then reboot your cpu. I don't use the new mapping, but the gain at maximum might now be moved to a different spot as well... again you can change that via the mapping for the knob. Also, when you say "50%" do you mean in the middle of the dial or halfway between the far left side and the middle? You might just be misunderstanding the dial itself.. 100% gain (normal) is in the very middle... thus giving you room to adjust higher and lower. |
