Traktor 3 and S4 MK3 semi-freezing randomly
So, why can this be? Sometimes traktor stops playing, all controlls still work, but the audio doesnt work. The songs look like blurry and I have to re-start the software.

Traktor 3.9 Randomly Freezing and losing audio output
When Traktor freezes and you have to force close, does it still keep a traktor log to help figure out why it happened? I submitted a ticket but wanted to try here too.
