DJ Rig with Maschine Jam, Maschine MK3 and Traktor Pro 4

SlowboyFade

I am running Maschine 3.0 and Traktor Pro 4. Audio from Maschine MK3 routed to the S4 deck D for now, Maschine Jam plugged into USB hub on the S4. The Maschine MK3 and Traktor S4 are plugged directly into a laptop running Windows 10 and LoopBe1.

In Maschine 3.0, both Jam and the MK3 are recognized and split accordingly for fine control, but I cannot get Traktor and Maschine MIDI to sync. Not sure what I am doing wrong since I have never done this before.

Lastly, how would I use the Maschine Jam in this setup to control a Remix Deck?

Thank you, in advance.

Although using LINK might be better instead: https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/214423065-How-to-Sync-TRAKTOR-and-MASCHINE-Using-Ableton-Link

Why not use Ableton Link?

I have to try it again because I couldn’t get it to work. Am at work now so once I get home, getting MIDI to work is next on my agenda. I have the feeling that my troubles are because I am trying to use LoopBe1 and Link at the same time. Another issue is that when I set Maschine MK3 as a slave, the Play button disables.

PK the DJ; I read on this forum that using Ableton Link does not let me use Traktor decks as a Master.

I have to admit: MIDI is a big weakness with me, it was tricky even before I got the MK3. The one solution I haven’t tried is using my 20-input Scarlett audio interface and do external MIDI. But I want to try simple first before complex.
