How to record Traktor in Audacity properly ?

Hi,

I can't find my answer on google or here nor in the wiki of audacity..

I'm using Beatport streaming and then you cant make use of the internal recording of Traktor. But for practice purposes i want to record my Traktor sessions so i use Audacity..

Now the thing is my Headphone cue on my Traktor S4 MK3 doesn't work when recording in Audacity.. How to fix this?

How i'm recording:

i've installed Blackhole 2ch, Created an Multi-output device in Audio Midi setup. in the Multi output device is Black hole and the S4 (the S4 as primary device).

When i go to Traktor and select Multi-output device in the Audio Setup then in Output routing my headphones disappear in the Output Monitor..

So it seems that when selecting Multi-output device as Audio setup Traktor sees the S4 only as Audio interface and not as a controller anymore..

Anyone knows how to fix this ? so i have full functionality of my Traktor s4 and i can record my sessions in Audacity?

Because the replies are probably spam.

I believe that this particular user was banned from the forum , then returned using another account and since banned gets their posts removed.

As for your Traktor question then I have no Traktor and do not know the answer.

Why not just take a cable from the output of the S4 and record that way?

6.3mm TS jack from booth out into a RCA line in on the back.

I think I already told you that on discord?

Yes, but then the conversation got lost in the new controller talking..

Ok, so then i have an audio signal coming in on channel C… How do i record ONLY channel C ?

lord-carlos

I don't know about Mac OS, but at least in Windows I can just select channel C in Audacity.

Actually what I meant was to record on something other than your computer…

Aggregate devices on macOS are not playing well with Traktor. Just use Rec out into external recording device.

Yes going to try that.. Connecting my traktor S4 to my Scarlett interface.. but need to buy cables for that.. so i was first trying to get it to work without the need of buying stuff

As far as i can find that's not possible.. i can only select the S4 as recording device in Audacity, i can't select a single channel.. so it's all or nothing..
