    @Sûlherokhh

    I have the same issue. I have never dealt with QML before. Do I need a QML editor software of could I change it from notepad simply? windows doesn't what to open it with.

    I use notepad++. Open the editor first, then open the file from inside the editor. Make a copy of the whole qml folder first and put it somewhere safe. If you modify the files, any syntax error will make Traktor crash, as with any programming language.

    My apologies for the late reply - I have been out for several weeks due to a health issue and came back in just recently (all good again BTW : ).

    Have you perhaps tried the QML solution posted above?

    In regards to the high pitch of voices, I'd really need to hear an example and see your Traktor window, so please shoot a short video clip / screens recording and post it here. THX!

    Thanks a lot - it hasn't been exactly a pleasure but now it's dealt with for good 🍀

    Looking forward to hear what you'll be able to report, but no hurry!

    OK, I tried fiddling around with the qml so that the D deck would not start out in the Live state.

    disclaimer: I am a professional programmer and willing to futz with code and deal with the consequences, you might not be!

    The code mentioned here, S3Mixer.qml, defines what the ext button does, but does not activate it. In fact, I can delete the entire onPress definition and DJPro still starts up with the Live deck.

    One thing I could do was change the defaultTypeForDeck(4) to be a Track deck instead of a Remix deck (in qml/CSI/Common/DeckHelpers.js), so I can at least switch it over with the Ext instead of having to use the mouse to manually switch the deck type.


    tl;dr: the qml files are interesting for fiddling with how the UI works, but I don't think they set the state of deck D to Live.

    It's good you are trying. I would but don't own an S3. 🦋

    I think I have the real fix for this: in the Input Routing section of Preferences, use the dropdowns to set input deck D to "not connected". Done.
