Problems Syncing Traktor and Maschine
Problems Syncing Traktor and Maschine Posted on: 14.11.2013 by Jodie Hurlbert Hi pals, i bought a Maschine recently and i'm starting with it...I play using Traktor in 4 decks mode, controlling it with a Traktor S4, also using it as a soundcard (normal using), now i also installed Maschine and i'm syncing both programs via midi clock using Traktor virtual output, like DJ Endo shows in his videos, everything works fine at the beginning, but after a few minutes, Maschine goes out of time, it seems to be that the midi clock isn't perfect, like a timecode or something like that, but when i see another djs playing in this way, they have not this problems, i've corrected the midi offset and both ticks are in sync, but after some time it don't... Someone knows what can be happening? I'm using a macbook pro i5, traktor s4 and maschine. Thanks!! | |

| Jodie Hurlbert 16.11.2013 | Yeah pal, i know, but which is the most accurate option? Any of this ways of syncing is more or less perfect? |

| Johnsie Kingrea 14.11.2013 | I would say that the midi sync is more trouble then it's worth. It's really inconsistent. I'd recommend just setting your Maschine tempo to match Traktor's and using the restart button on Maschine as a cue play button. If it's not in sync just tempo bend in Traktor. I was really hoping NI would include a tempo bend/nudge in Maschine 2.0. No luck |
| Temple Cervelli 14.11.2013 | Hey mate. I had this exact problem too, I followed Endo's tutorial video on how to do it, had it all working fine, but in the beginning it would only stay in sync for a few seconds, sometimes longer but it would always drift right back out of sync. Don;t worry about this, it will eventually become tighter and say locked in, you just have to keep playing with it, re-pressing the sync button inside of traktor (the global section one), get a 1 bar loop in traktor, and press sync in the global section on the first beat/kick of the loop, and just see how long maschine stays in sync, program two claps or 4 hi-hats in the step mode of Maschine and just see how long it stays in sync, heck, i even turned the volume down and left the room while i was setting it up, just to see if it stayed in sync by the time i came back in. It's literally just a matter of playing around with the offset slightly, this does all depend on your setup too, soundcard/laptop/mac. And its not just you, Endo told me once before that "even the big DJs like dubfire and Richie Hawtin have to re-sync 1 or more times during their set up. THe Traktor/Maschine MIDI clock sync'y stuff isnt 100% stable, so it takes some time to get it fully locked. Please let me know if you do get it to stay, it should just slowly start locking in tighter and staying sync all the time, in time. For me this happened. |
