Done with traktor due to crashes

Im done with traktor. To many crashes I own 2 S4s with recent MacBook pros and they quit unexpectedly while live. I can't be bothered finding updated, reinstalling and trouble shooting i'm to busy with 2 careers. I just want something that worksAll my friends and everyone I know using serato doesn't have this problem and have used them forever. Im switching. It's to bad I loved the feel and control but when performing live this cannot happen.

 

It's funny that in 6 years i had only 2 crashes when live, and i'm still on windows and have no problem with the software...

 

Run 2.6.8 and marvel as you evolve into a higher being.

 

that is 2 crashes too many , it seems those are problems with the software .

 

2 crashes in 6 years is amazing reliability, and crashes can be down to the laptop rather than the software anyway.

 

traktor should never crash or else it's not reliable .

 

I'll refer you to the point I made above, a lot of crashes are down to the computer rather than the software. And 2 crashes in 6 years means that for him at least the software is reliable. I similarly have few issues with Traktor, the last time it crashed was because I hadn't bothered to clean my laptop and it was overheating.
Yes people do get issues with software, this is why I haven't bothered with any Traktor version since 2.6.8, but unreliability is something we inherited from using laptops for DJing. Computers cannot be relied upon in the same way a Technics deck could.

Except for Reason, I can't seem to make that crash at all.

 

if a computer has a problem , it should have a problem on all versions , if it works on version 2.6.8 and crashes on a newer version only then it is the software that is to blame . it's funny how for me traktor does not freeze on cruse mode but it does freeze when i play live . I put the blame it on the software only .

 

Afraid not old fruit. Computer issues can flair up with some versions of software but not other versions of that same software. It's a thing and it happens.
Besides, if it was just the software nobody would get it to work and yet people do. That doesn't mean Traktor is working perfectly, it means there's more to a problem than "this software is junk".

 

Welcome.

If you want to go to Serato please do so - I think you will find that many Serato users are saying the same thing.

However, I would prefer that you report your issue to Support and try to resolve them because it might be an easy fix.
You could have corrupt file, setting file, collection or many other easily remedied issues.

I use Traktor between 4 and 6 times a week, every week and have done so for 10 years. I've never had a live crash that wasn't user error so to have persistent crashes would suggest there is something wrong other than Traktor simply being prone to crashing.

I've been using Traktor for 5 years now and I've never had It crash on me. Any version! I'm still using a 2009 MacBook Pro.
