One channel is louder than the other one

Good morning everyone,

I am using a laptop with windows 10, Traktor 4(point-zero - I am guessing at the moment) and experience the following problem. One channel is louder than the other one. No matter in which Dj Mixer (usually Pioneer in clubs) I connect my soundcard, the output 3/4 (Channel 2) has a lower volume than the other one. The sound card works perfectly, the same applies to my usb slots and all used cables as I tried to exchange every single piece already
any ideas or solutions for this problem?

Can you test if mapping a different deck to that output? If it still low it might be a hardware problem.

Or you could test to use a different software all together. Just play something on youtube and tell your OS to use output 3/4 for audio. If that still has the problem, it might be hardware.

If you find it's only in traktor, there is a pan somewhere. I think I remember a bug where people have to pan all the way to one side and back in order to fix it.

Try running Traktor in Mono mode or play a mono track, see if you still get one channel louder than the other.

Are you running Traktor hardware (S2/3/4 etc)? If so is the headphone cue balance wrong as well?

Also, the latest version is 4.1.1 so check you're up to date.

SOLUTION I had a similar problem. I noticed last night while playing OUT using Z1 and Z1. It wasn't just volume but one channel sounded fuller than the other. Just checked without equipement connected and checked all settings were the same for each channel. The problem was still there. Then turned off Limiter. Solved immediately. Turned i back on and still fine. I would be interested to see if this sheds any light on the problem and if it will return. I am using version 3.5.3
