Traktor Tips #2 - How to connect Turntables to the Traktor S4 MK3

Here is a video on how to connect your turntables to your Traktor S4 MK3, so you can have that vinyl experience with your controller anytime 😉

[@davidrowan3853]

Going to follow this amd hopefully get my decka attached and working on my s4. Been trying for mear2 years and havent been a le to get them too work.

[@The2ndRavingLatvian]

Give it a test! It's very fun. Let me know if it helps :)

[@davidrowan3853]

I will do mate, I'm on holiday this weekend, but hopefully have a try this week coming.

Thank you for the vid. Do the bpm counters on the reloop rp-8000 mk2 work with analogue vinyl with no computer connected?

[@The2ndRavingLatvian]

Hey! Sorry for the late response. I just got to test it out just to make sure. The bpm counter on the Reloop RP-8000 MK2 works with analogue vinyl with no laptop. BUT keep in mind that the Bpm counter only showcases the display in percentages, whether it is +8, +16 or +50 % (when clicking +8 and +16 buttons together). It does not display the actual BPM of the track. Hope this helps!

hey :D do you know if older CDJs are compatible with S4 Mk3 and Traktor Pro3? I was looking to buy a second-hand CDJ and add it to my traktor s4

[@The2ndRavingLatvian]

Hello! The older CDJs should be compatible with Traktor Pro 3. Just need to connect them to the channel inputs on the S4 and have timecode CDs inside the players and you should be good ;)

worked....after i have disconnected the usb cable from pc and turned off and on s4mk3 :D

[@MrTonksky]

Hey:)! Thanks for the video! Can you apply filters on the sound coming from the vinyl without laptop connected?

[@The2ndRavingLatvian]

Hey! Thanks for the good question! The S4 MK3 comes with a built in filter in the mixer, where without a laptop, you can use it with the turntables/CDJs. It's only a filter though, and any other effects do not work. Hope this helps!

[@jergs9655]

Is it possible to connect two turntables and assign them to two channels whilst still using two channels through traktor pro? Essentially want to be able to mix freely between records and digital as oppose to just using the controller as a standalone mixer

[@lorenzoalbadj6220]

Thats exactly what i need as well, i guess it should be feasible, but would appreciate a confirmation!

[@digitalsoundboy83]

Wenn man Traktor auf Windows 10 hat Audio6 Interface Vinyl wenn man Kalibriert hat und Nadel aufsetzt egal wo auf Platte ist der Track immer an der selben Stelle wie kann man das ändern dass der Track dann auch woanders zB weiter hinten abgespielt wird da wo man auf der Timecode Vinyl ist

hi! it works with algoriddim dj pro??

[@The2ndRavingLatvian]

Not sure because the S4 MK3 does not work with other softwares like RB and serato. However I don't know about DJ Pro AI If you have an S4 MK2 or MK1, you might be able to make it work. But that requires a Google checkup incase it won't be compatible

[@michaelstat]

My S2MK3 works with it out of the box, no custom midi map required. I would assume S4MK3 work with it as well.

[@oscarchank]

I want to ask can use the hot cue ?

[@The2ndRavingLatvian]

Hello. There are no cue buttons on the turntables. If you are using timecode vinyl you can theoretically map the cue buttons on the Reloop RP8000s, but I haven't tried it. Let me know if you want me to record a video experimenting that. Happy New Year.
