Hi everyone, I'm about to do a show and I've just witnessed a crash as soon as I booted Traktor pro 4.

I opened up traktor, the splash screen popped up and then the program closed.

A Windows reboot resolved the issue. Please let me know.

OS: Windows 11, Traktor pro 4.0.1

    I wouldn't trust windows or a recent version of traktor for a live performance NEVER.

    Use a Mac, with a tested OS (not the latest).

    Use traktor on the last 3 version.

    Do NOT be the bug tester for OSs and DJ softwares.

    In a live performance you must be sure you've got fully tested software and OS. the latest versions never are.

    Also, trusting a windows machine for a live performance.. is a big no no.

    I get your point, getting a MacBook is one of my priorities rn. But in 3 years of using the latest version of Traktor Pro and Windows, it's been stable for me.

    Before doing a live set I always make sure that everything works and doesn't crash.

    And by the way I know Windows is just bad, but this is the first time that happened to me and (fortunately) a reboot fixed the issue.

    3 years in nothing. This is basic statitics between ALL traktor users. Your personal experience in 3 years is statistically irrelevant. and the proof is IT DID HAPPEN to you. You can get a decent mac for 500$ that meets all traktors needs.

    "reboot fixed the issue" is never a solution when it happens to you live.

    Follow those simple rules i've posted and you'll never have a problem.

    ALSO VERY IMPORTANT: get s machine just for TRAKTOR. dont install or run nothing else on it.

    A dedicated MAC traktor laptop is cheaper than a controller and its the most important piece of equipment you own.
