The only problem I'm having is after updating both the control editor and osx is that previously when closing traktor the f1 would pads would stay lit orange (which bugged me) and the s4 would turn off but after updating now the f1 turns off completely (yes) but the s4 stays lit???

You also need to have the latest version of Controller Editor installed (CE 1.6.0). I do not believe it came with the latest Traktor so check that.

Traktor runs fine on my "mid 12 macbook pro", although Traktor won't recognize my X1 mk1. And yes, I installed the driver already :'(

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but the DJTT MIDI Fighter Utility doesn't work on Mavericks yet.

In good news though - Safari's inspector shows colors as Hex again!

My X1 is the first one yes, mk1.

My MBP is I believe late 2008, aluminium, black keys. MacBook Pro 5,1.

Your X1 is a MK1 ? Is it working ok and what model & year is your MBP ? I'm just compiling some information.
Temple Cervelli

I'll bare that in mind mate thanks. I don't gig heavy with my mbp atm so it's not major problem, but will look into this.

Okay, I've installed Mavericks ....

Not as much of a visual change as i was expecting but nevermind. So, downloaded the x1 driver, launched traktor, all works fine, everything is still the same as works the same, so far. Launched Maschine, everything is cool, except it seems that my macbook has forgotten where to go when i choose 'open', it normally takes me straight to either the 'projects' or 'groups' folders depending on what i have open, now it just starts me off in documents, and i have to go docs > NI > maschine. Hopefully it'll update soon.

Logic Pro 9 opened fine, scanned all of my plugins, only 8 were in-compatible, 8 that i dont even use, so thats cool. I'll list the plugins below for anyone who might want to know.
------------------------------------------------
Arturia - Spark EDM
Arturia - Modular V effect
Korg Monypoly
Sonnox (AU Native) - Oxford DeNoiser
Sonnox (AU Native) - Oxford DeBuzzer
Sonnox (AU Native) - Oxford Dynamics
Sonnox (AU Native) - Oxfrd EQ + Filters
Soundtoys - Speed
------------------------------------------------

One thing with Logic Pro 9, since upgrading to Mavericks, it crashed halfway through my, so far track, said 'system overload', i cant remember what else it said, but its never, ever happened before, only on an old Mac G5 ppc I had ages ago running logic pro 8, im hoping its just a little newborn mavericks upgrade hiccup, time will tell.

Ableton Live 8 opened fine, although ableton have posted saying that 8.4.1. will not run perfectly on mavericks yet, 8.4.2 is live as beta atm.

I tried running my full current set up all together, Traktor Scratch Pro II, and Ableton Live 8 running Maschine as a plugin. Didn't work very nice at all. Only the Maschine/Ableton side anyway, i believe.. I have a PSP 42 delay plugin, that i use over my Maschine plugin, in ableton, the plugin preset and midi mapping seems to deleted, this happened before anyway at times, but as well as that, there were some (i believe this is called "latency") problems where i would put maschine in step mode, and drop hi-hats in, in time with my track playing in traktor, as normal, but for the first bar it was okay, then the hats would double up,so it sounded rough, and out of time by some ms. If i de-selected the hats, they would still play for another 1 or 2 bars. Even if i wasnt in Maschine's step mode, like i just pressed a pad to trigger a sound, i used a clap, the clap would sound, and then it would sound again 1 bar later.... sometimes twice...

Any idea what this problem is? never had it before, only now since update... it's un-useable like this, and it's my full set up so would like to get it working again nicely soon..

I've got about a minute left to go with mavericks. So will update you shortly dude!
Cool. There are 2 installation screens so you may have another yet to go through but it's only 10 minutes.

Having the HDD go to sleep is a bad idea if, like one of my friend she goes from laptop to CDJ's and sometimes leaves the laptop alone for 20 or 30 mins. She once came back to the laptop to find that it was in sleep mode and had to be restarted to get the Audio 2 to be recognised which stopped the music in the club. She never has that setting anymore

Personal choice depending on how you use your laptop I guess.

Ctrl + power does the same thing.

The problem is though that sleep when pressed is default, regardless of the applications that are open, if you were to do this before you'd get a dialogue box with the options, but now one click and you go to sleep.

On Macbook Air's and Retina MacBooks the power key is not a recessed key - its right on the keyboard instead of eject making it really really easy to hit by mistake when backspacing.

Consider this - mid set you are searching for a track, you hit backspace (so you believe) to clear the search field and you lose all sound.

Audio apps are not the only ones where this could be a problem either - e.g. I do alot of website scanning which can take hours running in the background - its a fragile application at best, if I miskey while doing other tasks at the same time I risk potentially losing hours of work.

It would make more sense to have click for 3 seconds as sleep, and click once for dialogue menu.

I really hope we get the old functionality of the power button back. I almost never have my mac put to sleep

I have ALL energy saving features off all of the time anyway. I never have a screen saver or sleep mode enabled simply because time after time Apple screw these features up and they result in audio issues.

Sleep mode has caused issues with audio cards not working when woken up in a number of OSX updates.

I just paused the download and shut down my MBP last evening , didn't work tho. Had to re-download Mavericks today, I'm just installing it now, says about 41 minutes to go so will be able to rest it all very soon.

So if leaving your MacBook on over evening for any reason, you suggest deselecting anything ticked in the Energy saver prefs?

The only issue I have with Mavericks is the new power button functionality. On my air, accidentally hit it instead of backspace and the computer goes to sleep, cutting out the audio. I want its old functionality back! Haven't found any fixes online yet.

It will take 45 mins or so to install as well, so you got a while to go.

You can see the estimated time remaining by clicking the App Store icon as well, it should have a progress bar in the Updates section.

How do I open Launch Pad? I've looked up on google and its said to "swipe 3 fingers across track pad" but that didnt show anything.. Can't find it anywhere in my Mac either mate? The bar is just about under halfway though, would be nice to see a time estimate.

It's just sat like this for the last half hour or so.. There's no 'percentage' status or anything, as there usually is when downloading something, is this supposed to happen?

EDIT:

Okay, it wasn't until I opened up the image i attached until i noticed that little bar with the little blue bit underneath the (X) icon, I'm guessing this is the progress bar yes?

Then you will see a dialog showing you the new features. to be honest i skipped that and fired up traktor .
