Hi guys,

So, I know it can be done using HID Mode on a djm 850, 900 and 2k but is there a way to control Traktor using just your laptop and a xone 92?

if any of u can help out, i'd appreciate it.

thanks,
jon

i really dont know but since xone 92 pretty much is made for this type of use id start with reading the manual of xone 92 and traktor. then google is your friend - it will lead you to forums discussing this.

heres one: http://www.native-instruments.com/f...ad.php?t=166237

no, it's not possible as the mixer does not have a digital interface (unless they added one for newer models but I don't think so). And thank God for that, if I may say so.

it seems it can be done with an xone 92, according to the post clay made over at the NI forums. it just won't show on traktor.

in any case, the only reason why im asking is bc the setting at the venue where i'll be at is like that so i need to adapt, otherwise i can't play.

does the mixer needs to be connected via usb to the mac or not?

again i really do not know but im positive it needs to be connected via usb, so that u use the xone92s soundcard (if i remember it has inbuild soundcard). then you must "loop" the soundcard outputs into separate channel inputs using RCA, and then map midi somehow in traktor. read the manual basically.

edit: wait a second. does it even have USB? i might mix up with xone 2d/1d - the midicontrollers. what you are trying to do probably wont work without a dedicated midicontroller after all. i thought 92 had that, but doesnt seem so.

It only has MIDI, and that only sends a few controls from the mixer so whilst you can kind of do some control essentially the answer to your questions is no.

for this particular situation i'd only need the knobs and volume so that i can mix in and out of tracks. just basic mixing.

so my question is, when i connect it via midi what features does it include? and how exactly do u connect the mixer via midi to the mac?

sorry for the noob questions...

its not a noob question actually, i really thought it had USB but it doesnt, it only has oldschool midi output (5pin). sux. this can be connected to your PC via a USB-midi-device or a dedicated USB soundcard with MIDI included (most have that). Maybe the traktor soundcard have MIDI 5pin input? I dont know, if not you need a midicard. This is getting quite a stupid setup though, id just get a proper midicontroller instead like Xone 1d/2d or maybe one of the other traktor devices listen on their website. the midi in 92 seems really limited and oldschool probably just to control a simple hardware filter or delay wet/dry knob (or other efex). Not for traktor.

thanks clay, i was thinking about this... i have traktor pro 2, is it possible for a set up like this one to work properly:

2 x cdjs 2k
1 a&h xone92
1 x1
1 x audio 8

what do u guys think?

Get 1200's.

yes timecode from the cdjs can be used as midicontrollers via the audio 8 inputs i guess, the outputs to the xone mixer, and the usb connected to your computer you should have everything u need. also i see that audio 88 has a 5pin midi input which you can use for a few extra midi-fucntions from the xone midi output (like efex amount). again read the audio 8 manual, it says it all.

i rather just put all my mp3 on two USB-sticks and put on the cdjs instead though, and mix "oldschool"-style without a computer software.

edit: now i recall what mixer i thought about earlier: the xone 4d.
