Issues with Pioneer Interface 2 and Traktor 3

Leif Oines

I am trying to setup vinyl DVS using Traktor 3 and the Pioneer Interface 2. I followed the instructions here: https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000509157

I am on Mac Mojave. I am running my turntables into the inputs on the Pioneer (which is set to take a phono signal) and running the outputs of the pioneer to the line inputs on the mixer. I have also installed the pioneer interface drivers from their website. I am using Traktor timecode vinyl, NOT the pioneer control vinyl.

Within Traktor I am able to detect and select the pioneer sound card, and assign the inputs and outputs in the settings as per the article. Traktor seems to detect the time code signal, and it seems like i can **control the waveform** with the vinyl, **but i only hear the high-pitched the time code signal itself coming through the mixer, NOT the audio from the track**. Am I doing something wrong here? Thanks.

I figured out what the problem was. For anyone else that finds this: you actually have to install the rekordbox software, not just the interface drivers. Then, within rekordbox, head to the audio settings and open the audio manager. This lets you change the interface from “thru” mode to “usb” which is what you need for it to work with Traktor.
