Major slowdown when recording externally in Traktor

Hey guys, thought I'd ask this here as I know a few of you use Traktor. So I basically have Traktor set up with 2 decks and a mixer. My mixer actually has a record output, so I connect that to the channel 3 or 4 IN on the Audio 10 soundcard. I set Traktor to external recording and so far so good. But the problem is, when tracks are playing, and I send the signal from the mixer to the soundcard (to record), just slows down to an absolute crawl. Basically, the music will continue, but the screen will more or less freeze, and only when I take the needle off the record it will resume.
This is really annoying because after so long I finally have the full setup at home to do this, but it just doesn't seem to work. And the computer is PLENTY capable so it's definitely not the problem. Any advice would be great!
One strange thing I noticed is that the mix recorder on Traktor will only get the signal if the channel is set to phono, which I thought was a bit odd. And obviously I turn direct thru off. |

| Sorry, man. I'm ITB, so haven't had to record externally before. If noone that can help appears here, then maybe try NI forums or, even better, the djtechtools forum. They're ing pantsies, but there are a few guys that really know Traktor there. |

the things you say that happen to your screen look like a processor bottleneck have you tried increasing the latency?¿ Maybe recording is too exhaustive for your settings.
I've had similar experiences with other audio programmes (music slowed/pitched down, metalic sound etc...) and it was that the export settings were too high for my processor. |

| What sample rate are you running? It's probably unrelated, but I know I dropped at least 2.5 ms by selecting 48 instead of 41, and if I'm not mistaken it's the same soundcard in the S2/S4 as at least one of the NI Audio xx cards. |
