FEATURE REQUEST: RESTORE Traktor External Mixing Mode Vol Fader Control

DJ5D

To ALL NI folks who may be listening:

In the 3.11.1 update, below this was listed as a bugfix.

"Controller channel volume malfunction
The volume faders on the S2 MK3, S4 MK3, S3 and S5 no longer affect the channel volumes when the software is running in External Mixer mode."

It's not a bugfix, it's a crippling of essential function.

In Traktor's "External Mixing Mode" section, there are options to retain control of master volume, EQ & Gain, Filter, FX- even when in external mode. Those options are there for a reason- flexibility for many situations.

Even in External Mixer mode, sometimes we are STILL using our NI Controllers to MIX with.

We might be using alternative USB audio devices, software audio cables, etc, but we still need the ability to control Traktor with our NI gear.

In my case I am using a Kontrol S5, and routing all 4 decks into separate Ableton tracks for FX possibilities that just can't be done in Traktor.

Vol fader needs to be included in the External Mixing options, or this "bugfix" removed. For that matter, keep ALL functionality whether in internal or external mode, and if someone wants to turn that off, give them the choice.

I know i'm not the only one who wants this. Upvote if you want to see it too.
