We moved to a new shop! Head over here to see what's new.
Best place would be at the Pioneer forums for this question. There it’s much more likely you will run into someone from Pioneer 🙂 .
Having said that, if I remember correctly in the recent review on the main site here, it actually says something about not being clear if the NXS2 setup will be supported by/support Traktor.
Traktor is less and less interested in supporting third party gear (and allegedly making it harder on other manufacturers to make the option possible) and Pioneer now has it’s own RekordBox DJ software they will want to push. I am guessing it’s not very high on either Traktor or Pioneer’s wishlist, but I could be wrong.
The latest info is while the NXS2 does basically support the same HID/MIDI maps, that there still are issues with Traktor and that Native Instruments are looking into the matter to provide an updated version.
The NXS2 line is still so new, that such hiccups are to be expected.
They say the units basically work, but not all functions are available yet, maybe you can tell us more what was not working.Could you let me know how you got your DJM working with Traktor?
I have a full Nexus 2 setup which I’m effectively trying to get working as a controller.
I half-managed to get RKB DJ working via one USB from the mixer, but only one deck worked and I gave up quickly.
After a fresh PC install, I’m having a play with Traktor. With just the mixer plugged in via USB, no joy. I’ve plugged one of the CDJs in via the USB on the back and it is now working in HID mode, including hot-cues and stuff. I can’t figure out how to get the mixer working though.
Ideally I’d like to play about using a Kontrol X1mk2 and the CDJs as a complete Traktor unit.
Cancel that – I seem to have got it, everything just needs its own USB connection rather than going through the mixer’s one connection. Works a charm with 2x CDJs, DJM and Kontrol X1.
Actually though, maybe it IS using the LAN cables and switch for the Pro DJ link?
Ok it’s fair to say I’ve no idea how I’ve done it and taking it to do in a club in a non-starter at this point, but whatever I have done at home is pretty cool.
