Ok now im confused!
Posted on: 05.09.2010 by Shaneka Hindson
Ok whilst in the mix live on my radio show i had a glitch in my first mix. Sounded pretty bad on air just a guick mill-isecond freeze. Both tunes stayed in sync but through me on the mix. I recored this mix with the Traktor recorder and thought i would upload the snipit of the mix where the problem happend. This is the weired bit on listeng back to the recording there was no freeze. Im confused. I am using a Vestax VCI-100 SE and Traktor Pro on windows seven. I have uploaded the glitch file. I have had this problem a few times before. Is there something in the settings that i can fine tune to stop this. I do hope there is someone out there that can help me

Sounds like thats the problem...
Firstly thanks Nicky for your help on this matter. I am using a gigapot ag external soundcard. Not to sure what my latency setting are set at, i will need to check when i get home. But i am pretty sure the are set to the minimum settings i have not changed them since setting them up with the video tutorial that Ian put up. Is there a better setting or is it just a case of trying different ones.

I have uploaded snipits of the part of the mix where i had problems if you would like to hear what i am on about:

Without the glitch using the Traktor Recorder:

With the glitch using an external recorder(what was heard on air):
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=Y8JVJ9U0


They are only small files less than 1mb.
I do hope this helps make things clearer.
Thanks again for helping.

Thanks to Nicky and Photojojo. I have changed my latency settings from 5 to 11.3 and had a good mix using loads of effects just to get traktor really working hard and didnt seem to gt the problem. Really thankyou both for the help. This site is great.

You can check your latency in Traktor by clicking on the big gear logo to get to preferences, then going to Audio settings. I rum mine in the 10ms range and all is fine. The only reason you would need to go lower is if your doing a bunch of scratching.

Ive listened to it and it definetly sounds like a latency setting mate.

You say you have the latency set to minimum - thats probably the issue.
Try increasing it and see if it fixes it...

So if it is 5 ms at the minute, change it to 10 ms and see if that helps. Then a bit more if not etc...

You may be able to change it directly in traktor in the audio settings tab - but if not you should have a program for your soundcard.

If that does not work let me know whether you are mac/pc and what operating system you are runnung.
