Traktor as Midi Slave

Hi,

I am just curious if I can run Traktor as a Midi Slave. Keyword here is Slave, I've looked on a bunch of forums on how to use Traktor to output a MIDI clock, and I have no interest in this. Is it possible to have Traktor accept MIDI clock information? I want to know in general if this is possible, but if anyone knows specificially how to do it with Ableton, let me know.

Thanks in advance, I need to figure out if this is possible ASAP!

Edit: I know that there is a little button on the metronome section of the software, I click EXT under the Clock Master section, but there doesn't seem to be anywhere to set what that EXT source is...

If it helps, I have Ableton hooked up to my old Traktor Audio 8, and have Traktor running into Ableton using an internal routing with Soundflower. I usually use timecode vinyls with Traktor, but I want to see if I can have Traktor synced to the things I'm doing in Ableton. I don't want to have Ableton constantly synced with Traktor, hence why I don't want Traktor being the master MIDI output clock.

 

Yeah, it's pretty strange. The EXT button is there, but the clock doesn't respond. The documentation only gives limited info too. I haven't been able to get it to work, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this thread.

 

I have tried this but couldn't keep the both Traktors to play in sync due to latency delay.

Go to control manager, add a generic midi device, you will notice two drop down's on the top right with in/out ports, choose your in port for that is coming from the midi port that you send the clock through.

now in your main layout where you have the clock settings(main view/top left) set the master clock to INT..here you go ..it should work now.

Let me know if you could play them in sync as i've tried this with a midi hub and through a network cable but still had a latency but you'll have your bpm sync'ed

 

It's easy
Your MASTER MIDI HARDWARE or SOFTWARE.....Must have a REALTIME MIDI COMMAND...
Set CLOCK TO EXT
and then SEND REALTIME START Command(1time) to Traktor....Just Enable Port in Traktor No Need to map anything.....If you want to stop Sync just SEND REALTIME STOP...TRAKTOR Will stop SYNC....
I's easy right
