Traktor Kontrol S3 - Low Audio Output Problem

Good Day @Ryan_NI

I trust all is going well. I have been enjoying the new firmware update & has been working very very well, only i have picked up a few issues :

#1 - Beat Sync

> I have noticed a few times that the tempo drops back to a track's original bpm instead of keeping the current bpm of the track playing ( happens like 2 or 3 times during my sets ) , not sure why & have never experienced something like this before

#2 - Current Traktor Pro Version ( Not Beta )

> After the firmware update of the hardware, the audio levels have improved significantly ( Both for Main Output & Headphones THANK YOU ) , However, last night it happened again where the headphone level dropped again which I cannot come to terms which why suddenly, i used my new Pioneer head sets on the club's dmj350 mixer & audio level between 12 & 1 is adequate enough, as for on the unit it's back to 3 & 4 on the volume adjustment. Not sure if you need a statistic report from my setup, I will test later today using my Pioneer DDJ-T1 DJ Controller , as well as the Denon MC3000 & see if there's a difference & provide feedback.

#3 - A Possible Request for the Traktor Kontrol S3

>Perhaps it's unlikely for a request such as this but would it be possible for an audio driver to be released based on the Traktor Kontrol S3 (Wasapi Exclusive) setting. This would be great if it could be implemented once the device gets connected to the laptop, it would be ideal for this as a dj controller's audio gets auto selected using the correct audio driver. I am familiarizing myself to select the Wasapi Exclusive driver, but at times i forget to do even tho I have enough time before my set, I always try ensure that I have selected the correct settings.

For now that is all I'd like to report, I will provide feedback in due time.

Again many thanks for all you help.

Warm Regards

Good morning @Ryan_NI

I have downgraded to the stable version & audio is sorted.

I have a feeling that the profile has not been carried over to the Beta version 2.

Both master output & headphone levels are adequate.

Just thought you should be aware.

Thank You

Hey @Jaqs

Thanks for replying & looking at my thread. To be honest I doubt there will be any further attention drawn to this article. There is absolutely nothing wrong with your headsets, I use mine on the Pioneer DJM 600 mixer & works absolutely perfect, on my Pioneer DDJ-T1 & Denon MC3000 the audio output on both Master & Headphones level are satisfactory.

The problem lies within the Dev coding as I have ruled out all other possibilities & have concluded that the problem lies in the coding that I feel the development team does not seem to be any interested in resolving. I have requested for a standard audio driver for the S3 but there has not been any further communication since.

Upon the firmware release in May, during the beta time, the audio was satisfactory at the time, but then when the 1st 3.7rc was released, the audio profile never got carried over again & I have been stuck ever since.

I have given up on trying to get my voice heard for all other S3 users to assist them where voices are not heard & I feel that that is not their priority nor problem anymore. NI has been gracious enough to reply on my thread & kept me posted but eventually all silence as usual.

I have been trying to look into the dev coding myself but whatever changes I made, Traktor crashes once I launch the software.

Till this day, NI has the main focus Of Pattern player & pro plus, but nothing else being done regarding the user's requests about flickering browsers, unstable waveforms, Traktor crashes due to latency issues / volume issues users are experiencing (to name a few)

I do not have any further information or updates on this matter but if anything changes or comes up, I shall update this thread.

I do humbly appreciated you taking your time. Into reading through this thread.

Regards
