    The best I can advise is to get Traktor running well on the main Dj computer. If you can't get Obs to work with your routing on that computer. Send the audio to a different computer for the Livestream.

    Maybe post pictures of how your audio is routed from the S2MK3 to the Uca222 and into OBS. Maybe then I can get an idea of what is happening.

    Show pictures of...

    Traktor audio input and output in Preferences.

    The cables and connections of the S2MK3

    The cables from the S2MK3 to the uca222

    The audio card setup (uca222) in OBS

    Show a picture of Obs Asio and what you are trying to route? I am thinking the Obs Asio is hijacking your Traktor audio. I don't think you should be routing to Obs that way. It's hard to say. But that sounds strange to me.

    here's a video, with this setting there is sound, but no sound on the headphones in the controller.

    without the NI ASIO is not visible (WDM). here I have removed that plugin!

    Don't worry about the distortion and stuff :)

    (ahhm, the sound is down.. youtube)

    Well yeah, our idea was to use the Uca222.

    A cable from s2 to an an input of the Uca222.

    I didn't show you that, but, there's no sound there either.

    Windows does not make it compatible.

    he's also rather willful, stubborn

    If the hardware works, and the drivers are installed, you should be able to select it in OBS.

    Did you see the video. who could be? I don't see it.

    Driver: sk2mk3 is downloaded by windows, there is none in the installations. OBS works for others, but with sk2mk3 it doesn't work for others. I saw on the OBS studio someone asked, but didn't get an answer to the solution.

    Not s2 drivers. I'm talking about the uca.

    Does it work at all?

    If you are trying to add the S2MK3 driver as an audio source for OBS.

    I think you are trying to use the S2MK3 audio card as the sound source "input" for OBS input.

    What you need is an output from Traktor software.

    Which is not available because it is being sent to the S2MK3.

    You also have no output from the Traktor controller, because the only USB connection is being used is an input from Traktor software.

    Maybe I am wrong on this and I hope this isn't too confusing.

    The S8 controller did send back an available output connection over USB. It is the only controller I have used. The S5 and the S4mk3 do not do this either. I believe it has some type chip that enables this.

    The only way you are getting audio into OBs from Traktor is from an audio port output of the S2MK3 controller.

    Then that audio is into another external audio card. Or maybe the computer microphone input. Then OBS recognizes that USB port or microphone port.

    Well said, well seen!

    That's why I gave up... Thanks for your help.

    If the NI didn't want it, I won't be able to use it.

    It's slowly doing the same with its Software, it's useless live, and it composes something that's useless anyway, it's amazing...

    Yes it works, but if I put it in the controller when selected, it crashes.. or no sound, or. but it doesn't work.

    I did a bit more research.

    Option 1. You might need to try using the S2 Wasapi shared driver for Traktor. And select that same source as an "Output capture" in OBS. But I read something about Bluetooth interference and Bluetooth needing to be turned off on the computer.

    I think the only way to get the "S2 Wasapi" driver to show is by uninstalling the S2 Asio driver for Traktor. If I remember right it doesn't show both if the Traktor Asio is installed. I am not talking about the windows Wasapi driver.

    Option 2. There are also virtual cable programs usually free for download that I guess can work for creating sound source you need in Obs.

    I guess Rekordbox solves this issue by adding a feature in the program to have audio split directly from the app itself? I didn't really look into it much.

    But I have to emphasize. Running too many audio sources and routing and things like virtual cables have many issues already in the complex area of drivers and setting up the video stream. Then maybe adding video cards. Like I mentioned above Bluetooth was said to cause issues with Wasapi.

    It is a constant learning process. Me and my neighbor have spent many hours finding the best ways and still run into issues. We keep the Dj computer separate from all of that. I can't imagine running video cards somehow looping Traktor signal and that mess on the Dj computer and not having crashes or CPU spikes, etc. or having conflicts and sound quality or no sound at all.

    I honestly hope you get it running. Do some video searches on YouTube.

    Route Traktor into OBS

    Or maybe similar audio routing for Audacity might be informational with more results.
