Johnetta Olewine 27.05.2012 | I'm not talking about minimal issues or "one bug fix" with NI releases. Its usually an unstable clusterfuck with a release and the bugs aren't fixed all that quickly IMO. I thought everyone just knew that NI are the kings of using a public release to beta test, so I guess i agree with having no pity for early adopters. |

Talk to anybody in software development, if they held off releases because they were worried about bugs then nothing would get done. Everybody knows this, you NEVER download a major release when it first becomes available and expect it to not have problems. Anybody that downloaded 2.5 and took it out to a gig did so knowing that they were playing the odds, if they ended up on the losing end, they get no pity from me. So, if applying simple logic constitutes "sucking up to NI", then sure, guilty as charged |
Johnetta Olewine 27.05.2012 | I guess I'm used to decent, generally major bug free updates from the days when I used Serato. Serato updates are light years better than Traktor. You could actually be confident downloading the serato beta versions and play out with them, which is a far cry from the PUBLIC release of TP2.5 |
Johnsie Kingrea 27.05.2012 | For the most part I've had great experiences with software updates. I believe it can seem worse then it is just because there's such a concentration of people using the new software and discussing it. |

Johnetta Olewine 27.05.2012 | Another beta development release from NI that isn't ready, released to the public under the guise of a software update. Good to see things don't change. I envisage another 20+ pages of people griping about how buggy and unstable 2.5 is and the wailing "how can they do this to us!!????", then another few threads about how 2.5 ruined peoples gigs. Its all deja vu in here. |
Corey Tronchin 27.05.2012 | I can't even install it since the installer says it can't detect the installation folder. When I open the service center to locate the installation folder however, it says it can't detect the stand alone application (and it really is there...) Must be a sign of the gods then, I'll have a wait for the next version and do a complete install i guess. |
Jolynn Schroyer 26.05.2012 | Yeah i also found the 2.1.2 version folder but can't figure how to roll back to it and use the program. Ive checked the folders can't find which one is too use the 2.1.2 version. |
Roseanna Signorini 26.05.2012 | I don't quite understand why there is a main play button for the remix decks. When I want a samle to playI should just be able to hit it and it plays, what is the point of having a deck type play button? The other thing I have noticed is before I had the sampler section of the DDM 4000 mapped to control the old sample decks. I hit the button, the sample plays. If I hit the button in the middle of the sample playing it stopped. Now the mapping carried over but now when I hit the button, the sample plays, once it plays through the box with the black arrow where you can choose what color you want that sample to be turns white, I then have to hit the button again for it to turn the color I selected for the sample and then hit the button a 2nd time to fire off the sample. I can't figure out what else do I have to map so I can play the sample and once its done I can hit the button once to play the sample again. Now its like a doublr tap. I can see the potential with the remix decks, but unless you have an F1 or until NI decides to release the rest of the slots to be mappable it kinda sux. I feel like I have a piece of gear thats missing a part in order to use it the way it was intended to be used. I have also noticed that the remix deck makes itself the master every time I hit it. As much as I like the idea of the remix decks and can believe up a lot of creative ways to use the them for a live performance, I am actually going to go back to 2.1.3 or whatever version I had last until I can be able to map it all myself. |
Charline Dye 26.05.2012 | @photojojo I guess you haven't run service center in a few months lol. There was 2.1.2, 2.1.2125, and 2.1.3. I guess to get my settings and play lists back I can move the 2.1.2 folder and rename the 2.1.3 to 2.1.2. But I'm not sure what the changes were between the versions. If I remember correctly, it was mainly time code improvements which wouldn't affect me anyway. |

Charline Dye 26.05.2012 | Wasted youth, there isn't a rollback function. All of your previous Traktor versions are in a back up folder in programs, Native Instruments, Traktor (on a PC). The corresponding settings and collection etc. are in a backup folder under Documents, Native Instruments. All you have to do is navigate to the older program and launch it. I have the settings for 2.1.3, but the latest program I have is 2.1.2. |

Charline Dye 26.05.2012 | Now I feel like a newb I was going back to use TP 2.1.3 and it's not in my back up file. I only have 2.1.2 and earlier. WTF did I do or not do? The settings, collection, etc. in the documents folder are there for 2.1.3 (and for 2.5 and for previous versions), but the program is not in my backup folder in programs. How do I get it back?? |
Nedra Fresneda 25.05.2012 | 2.5 is not an upgrade, no one is paying for it. |

This has also entitled me to the free upgrade to 2.5 which I am using at the minute. |
Johnsie Kingrea 25.05.2012 | This might sound like a noob question, but why is it that stuff that works in previous updates can get messed up in future updates. Like the multiple beat marker issue, to me it would seem like the only way they could mess it up is by actually touching that part of the program. Could anyone here with coding experience weigh in on this? |
Charline Dye 25.05.2012 | Check the NI site, but I'm pretty sure there is no free upgrade from LE. |
Birgit Gondal 25.05.2012 | Quick question, if i only have T2LE installed, and my audio 4, will I still be entitled to the TSP2.5 software? |
Charline Dye 25.05.2012 | I am exited about the potential of 2.5, and will probably get an F1, but I'm definetly going back to 2 until they get everything sorted out. Mainly because of the multiple grid marker bug, as this bug makes Traktor unusable for me. I guess the release date should have been pushed back a bit as this version isn't ready for use. |

Birgit Gondal 25.05.2012 | apologies, its TSD, hence no separate install may just fork out for the scratch upgrade when i get my LE2 upgrade! |
Bethel Himmelein 25.05.2012 | I have updated the Traktor Bible Bugradar http://traktorbible.com/bugradar/default.aspx Please send me a message via the contact form on my website if you see other bugs that should be added to the list Thanks! |

Birgit Gondal 25.05.2012 | I'm having a slight evening mare here. I bought an A4DJ about 2 years ago, and I've been happily using TSP1 since then, got my X1, didnt want to lose scratch functionality so didnt install LE2, and now I've just done so and realised that i will lose scratch functionality... it should also be known that i've lost my disc for TSP1. Help me please |
Lilliana Perris 25.05.2012 | Yeah, just looked it up. Cheap as chips compared to Win OS's. Will do Snow Leopard for $30. Should be all I need. |
