    I have a VCI-100, Traktor PRO and a M-audio Fast Track Pro. I get sound from the speakers but NO headphone cueing... Does anybody know whats going on? I think it kind of weird when so many people are have the same problems...

    I'd say you've got your output routings set up wrong. If you can tell us more, you might get a more specific answer.

    By 'problems' do you mean that they have their settings incorrectly configured?

    What is your output configuration?

    I have a fast track Pro and when the audio is playing out of the speakers I can't get the card to hear the next track. I have tried everything. The a&b button on the Fast Track Pro does nothing...

    You will be switching the cueing from within Traktor Pro, not the soundcard.

    Try reading the manual - section 4.3.2 - setting up Traktor Pro with External Audio interface. Specifically, you will need to look at the output routings, as myself and chilly have already said. The output master should go to your primary outputs (and then your amp/stereo/whatever) and the output monitor to your headphones.

    So the output master is 1&2?

    1) Set the mix knob all the way to the right to PB on soundcard.
    2) Connect your RCA 1 and 2 to your amp/stereo.
    2) Set "Fast Track Pro Out 1/2” to Output Master, and select “Fast Track Pro Out 3/4” to Output Monitor.
    3) The A/B button will select what you are listening to (A for Output Master, B for Output Monitor - ie. whatever you have selected to cue in Traktor)

    All this info is in the Traktor manual and in the M-Audio knowledge base.

    Box everything up and send it back. Hopefully you won't be stuck too hard with a restocking fee.

    I am having the same issue.

    I have set Traktor and the Fast Track Pro to the settings mentioned above, but I can only hear one side. (Either the A or B deck.)

    In other words.

    If the A deck is live and I want to cue the B deck, the only way I can do so is to crossfade to the B deck in the software. Which would, in turn change the deck you hear from the master output.


    I have Out 1/2 set to Output Master, and Out 3/4” to Output Monitor, using the headphone jack in the front of the sound card.

    My setup:
    Traktor Pro
    2 Stanton SCS.3d decks
    An M-Audio X-Session Pro (used as an external MIDI mixer)
    MacBook Pro (early 2008) 2.6 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, OSX 10.5.6 4gb ram
    M-Audio Fast Track Pro sound card

    I would appreciate any assistance.

    And are you using the Cue button in the Traktor Mixer?

    When the A/B button is pressed I can hear the sound. If the button is not pressed then I can't hear it.

    And I am pressing the cue button or the button with the symbol of the headphone on it.
