Source issues? Internal and External will not record at the same time

Tensegrity

In preferences, Mix recorder, the only way I can record from Traktor pro 3 is to have the internal source selected. Also the only way I can record from my external sources is by switching the source to external.

I recently upgraded my computer, reinstalled Traktor pro 3 and can't seem to get both external and internal record at the same time. I know I'm still a beginner at this, I'm pretty sure its an audio setting that I am not setting up correctly because It's recorded both internal and external together on my previous instillation of Traktor pro 3

I tried to explain this issue to the best of my current abilities, help would be much appreciated!

My external equipment is

Boss RC 505 loop station

Focusrite Scarlet 2i2 3 series

Standard Keybord and Microphone

Hi @Tensegrity,

Traktor can record either internally or externally, but not at the same time. This has always been the case, no recent changes have been applied.

If you want to record both an internal and an external signal at the same time, there are two possible setups:

1. Route the signal from the loop station into Traktor as Live Input via your soundcard, then record internally.
2. Route all signals to an external mixer, connect its record out to an input of your soundcard, then record externally.

Hello,

can you maybe describe your setup a bit more in detail, how do you have your audio stuff routed, for example the boss loop station is feeded by what and goes into what device and so on.

Microphone and keyboard into the boss loop station, boss loop station goes into the focusrite along with headphones, focusrite is usb into my computer. Thanks in advance for reading and trying to help!
