Cue Maschine with Traktor

djfuzzydaddy

I am running a Maschine MK3, Maschine Jam and I also have a S8, X1 MK3, F1 and Komplete Audio 6. My goal is to be able to use Machine and Traktor live, however, I would like to be able to cue Maschine in my headphones BEFORE I mix it in live. Is there anyway to do this on any of my devices? Thanks!

Hi Davide ...
After several attempts and after reading several tutorials without success .... I found the best way (for my needs) to do it in my configuration and it works.
I routed the audio from Maschine MK3 to the "C" channel of the Traktor S8 using a Traktor Audio 6.
Let's get to the point:

CONNECTIONS:
1 - connect Maschine to the "IN" channel A of the Traktor audio 6 with an RCA cable
2 - connect the "OUT" channel a of the Traktor audio 6 to the "C" (Line) channel of the S8 with an RCA cable

MASCHINE INTERFACE:
AUDIO Section:
1 - Set the Driver to "ASIO"
2 - Set the Device to "Traktor Audio 6"
3 - Set the Output Routings "OUT 1L" to "3: Ch A L" and "OUT 1R" to "4: Ch A R"

TRAKTOR S8 INTERFACE:
INPUT ROUTING section preferences:
1 - Set "Input Deck C" to "Channel C Left" and "Channel C Right"
2 - Set the channel C to "Live Input"

That's it ... if everything is set up correctly you should have Maschine pre-listening on the S8's C channel and consequently also use the S8's effects on the channel.

I hope I was helpful... if I didn't manage to explain myself well I could try with some screenshots.
