Hello, I found two issues over the weekend. The first one is that Traktor crashes when unplugging the headphones and none of the data (such as grids, hotcues, playlists) gets saved when it does. Second issue is that sorting by key doesn't work in any direction. Tried with multiple playlists. Other columns sorting works.

In the browser collection I would like to display column "Key" in musical format (eg Am, Dbm etc) and column "Key Text" in Open Key format (eg 12m, 5d, etc).

Traktor 4.3.0 - evidence of new hardware imminent?!
I think a new piece of hardware may be about to be announced. As with every release I do a code compare of the .qml files used to control screens on the D2, S3, S4mk3, S5, S8 & X1mk3 to see what changes I need to make to the extensive mods I made for my S8 & D2 some years back. There’s usually very little I need to change.…

Stems files disappearing on its own
I'm really getting tired of Traktor and its bugs. Out of nowhere, the stems icon next to multiple tracks disappears without the folder which contains the stem files being tampered with.

Integrating virtual instruments into Traktor Pro 4
Hello everyone! I’d like to share an idea about integrating external VST synths into Traktor Pro 4.

Time-Stretching (Key Lock) awful quality problem
When using 16 bit 44.1 kHz FLACs I can clearly hear that key lock is causing massive muddiness of high pitched transients and kick. It's noticeable even on +0,1% of pitch. Playing stems is where horror story begins. Since they are AAC on 256kbps it's so bad that I had to map pitch reset button on my S4 MK3 that I…

I REALLY love the Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3
Spent some time at Guitar Center for the first time in over a decade. Didn't know they had equipment out that you could play with from the DJ world.

Anyone know of a external twin analogue VU unit with phono in - passive - not an amp
There are hopefully a few people like me who appreciate and prefer the old school VU meters. So on my S4 I would like to use the phono out to a twin VU meter box and I assume I'd have to put the same type of box inline btween my S2 and the rig. My rig has a passive balanced single xlr out. But I want the VUs to be right in…
