Tutorial: How to Sync Traktor Pro 2 & Ableton Live

Tricks, Ratschläge, Online, Reparieren, Landwirtschaft, Landwirtschaft Maschine

1. Hey! I'm using Traktor 2.11 and Ableton live 9.5 in the same computer (mac).
   
   I'm using soundflower as the output for traktor and as the input for ableton while using an Audio 10 for ableton's output and to connect to the mixer.
   
   After a while, the midi clocks get out of sync and the only way I have figured out to sync them back together is going to the ableton preferences and changing the MIDI clock sync delay parameter manually. Is this parameter mappable to a controller? Is there any better way to sync them back without having to do it manually and losing the flow?
   
   Thanks!
2. I followed everything you did in the video but lives tempo goes crazy and starts changing values radically and continuously...
3. DO IT IN PC!!!
4. Anyone knows if there are any problems using the full screen size on traktor or ableton while both are synced?? Please i have this problem. While I am using both programs synced at the same time but in a normal window, i haven´t problems. But when I change to fullscreen size one of them, after a minute more or less, the sound of inactive window crash, sounding desynchronized and faltering.
   
   Thanks 4 your tips and advie in advance.
5. hi i would like to see a video on how to connect two different mac laptops. 1 will run ableton and the other will run tractor any idea on how to sync these two together??
6. does this mean that you can record traktor on a ableton trak?
7. do it for PC!!!!
8. Unfortunately that does not work with me as the video . I use the NI S4mk2 soundcard . saw set exactly as in the video everything . with me is the option not " virtually tractor output" special " tractor s4mk2 " . but everything else the same .
   
   what can I do ?
   can anyone help ?
   
   Thank you very much
9. I already have in sync Ableton Live and a Korg Electribe EMX. Would it still work if I try to add Traktor? Thanks
10. Simple, clear and to the point. 
11. Thanks man, great vid!
12. i don't see a Virtual midi selection on the outport. I have everything matched right aswell
13. IS ANYONE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE ???
    
    My DJM-850 CRASH each time I try to sync Ableton with Traktor Pro so I got a separate 'KOMPLETE AUDIO 6' (KA6) USB Audio interface (It never crash)…
    
    Im using the first 3 Channels on the DJM with Traktor directly via the DJM USB Audio Interface but I use Ableton (with the KA6) on the Channel 4 of the DJM (via CD/Line) …
    
    But now I still receive an error massage in Ableton "The midi signal has been lost (Please check your cable connections and make sure the device sending MIDI Clock is operating correctly. External sync has been turned off)" 
    
    When I recive this message it mean to me I have to reset my DJM-850 Audio interface since I have no sound coming out of Traktor Pro via the DJM USB Audio Interface but Ableton is still playing (via the KA6) ...
    
    I Have :
    
    MACBOOK PRO OS X 10.9.03 with Intel Core (Quad) i7 2,3 GHZ 16 GB RAM
    
    TRAKTOR PRO 2.6.8 (With KONTROL F1 and 2 KONTROL X1 MKII)
    ABLETON LIVE 9.1.2
    PIONNER DJM-850 v 1.1.0 (Sample rate in the mixer in ableton and in traktor pro set to 48 KHz sample rate and buffer size set to 1024 samples was 512)
14. How do this using two seperate computers? And can one be a Mac and the other a PC?
15. my metronom does not tick ? 
16. Monitor or Master, depending where you want your cueing coming from and the live show from. (generally headphones and amps)
17. Just had the problem, but i'm using a Traktor Audio 2 soundcard; the point: Ableton would run on the channel A of my output while Traktor is a channel B, so they are on 2 separate channel, to put them in the same channel I went in Traktor ==> Output Routing ==> Output monitor and changed Both Channels from B to A. That did it for me
18. can you make a video about how to route 2 different ableton buses into deck c and d into traktor
19. When you turn the tick on, press the headphone cue button for the deck you want the tick to play out of. That may do the trick for you.
20. hey. my traktor "tick" doesn't make a sound unless my output source is set to external, which takes away some mixer features of traktor. help!
