playing 4 decks & recording my mix w/ the audio 8, PROBLEM!

basically i run my traktor out through the audio8 into an external mixer

i dont use and timecode and i dont use the internal mixer (i hate software mixers, <3 analog)

anywho....i output my mixer back into one IN of the audio8 (usually ch. D) so that i can record my mix....in the traktor record or audacity or whatever

the problem i am having is that when i do this it detect my mixers output (my mix going into ch. d for recording) as faulty timecode and makes that deck all choppy and unusable

is there anyway i could record and still have all 4decks ready to go?


thanks!

 

on the soundcard set the input to 'record'

see this thread..it´s the same problem

still waiting for a proper solution

 

been talking to NI tech support for a week now....still no answer....

"did you set the recording preferences to a specific input?" ....duh

 

u know what worked for me: i have assigned only input channel A (or D in your case) and selected this as the recording input. all you have to do is assign all scratch controls to an unrouted input channel. so the incoming signal (the one you like to record) doesnt interfere with the program.

 

i dont get it...haha

f**** i´ve written a detailed text 3 times and my f** browser always messes it up...look at the attachments maybe you get it then.

the trick ist to assign all decks in the timecode setup to a "dead" (or unused) input channel (pic 2). then no deck is influenced by the incoming signal.

 

thanks so much man!

you beat ni to the punch, thank the lord i dont use 4 timecode decks or i would be pisssed

let me know if you ever find a fix fix rather then a trick

 

yeah that´s the point. 4 deck scratch control and recording with traktor simoultaneously does not seem to work with the current version of Traktor Pro.

glad if i could help a little. have fun

 

HI, I also have problems with recording.
I am using 4 decsk (2 cd players) and external mixer.
Could you please tell how i can record my mix?

cheers
