Hello, I had TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2 MK2 with the audio box 6 to mix encoded vinyl, I switched to TRAKTOR pro 4 and I can no longer put my vinyl turntables in LINE and my external mixer to mix, can someone explain to me step by step to get it working again, thank you, eternal gratitude

In general the settings are exactly the same in Traktor Scratch Pro 2 and Traktor Pro 4 for using Traktor Audio 6 and DVS/Traktor Scratch. Do you have also installed the Traktor Audio 6 control panel? You need this to setup your Audio 6 phono preamps and startup beahaviour of your Audio 6. For me Traktor Pro 4 adjusts all settings automatically if I connect my Traktor Audio 10.

You didn't mention which turntables you use. I expect your turntables are on phono levels. If your turntables have phono preamps and therefore are outputting line levels, you have to setup your Audio 6 accordingly.

As I only have Traktor Audio 10, my screenshots reflect this model, but steps are same for Audio 6 - just two stereo channels less.

Step 1: Download Traktor Audio 6 Control Panel: NI Drivers and Downloads

Step 2: Connect your Traktor Audio 6 to your Mac.

Step 3: Setup your Audio 6 to accept phono levels on its inputs with control panel:

Make sure you also adjust the startup behaviour in Startup tab.

Step 4: Startup Traktor Pro 4 go to settings. If not already selected choose your Traktor Audio 6 as Audio Device. If you are prompted to allow access to microphones (now or later in this process) grant it. macOS considers all audio interfaces with inputs as microphones.

Step 5: Change to Output Routing in Traktor settings. Assign the outputs to your Traktor Decks.

Step 6: Change to Input Routing in Traktor settings. Assign the inputs to your Traktor Decks:

Step 7: Leave Traktor settings, click on the Deck letter (A, B, C or D) in Traktor Pro and select how to use that deck.

Select "Direct Thru" to play real vinyl, select "Scratch Control" to use timecode vinyl to control your deck. Keep in mind that the buttons beneath the play button only get active after calibration. Put on a timecode vinyl, put the needle on the record and wait a moment. Scratch Control now should work.

Step 8: If not go to macOS system settings Privacy & Security → Microphone and check that Traktor has microphone access.
