I know, typical :| :(

My traktor is legit, have a few grands worth of equipment in a soundproofed basement / man cave and cant use any of it :(

Would be up for trying another traktor though as have explored all other avenues. :thumbsup:

Does anyone have sigmatel soundcard I could confirm the settings?

Cheers all

Mmm Sigmatel card eh?
Maybe this is the problem? Is Traktor showing the card in the control options?
Audio settings at the top, there should be a dropdown with a list of available cards,ie the laptops built in card and the Sigmatel?
If it shows the Sigmatel then you go to the second option down, Output routing.. phones are normally 3&4 and master 1&2

Im asking this because Traktor didn't detect my old Citronics card.. no problems with this Numark card and obviously any Native Instruments card would be supported

Try eliminating things

Switch mixers see if it's a mixer issue
Use an Amp and speakers instead of the Creative set up in case it's that

Play an mp3 file in winamp or media player and see if there is any delay with that - if not, won't be the soundcard output

If you have tried two different laptops then it won't be those or the O/S if they are different (XP/Win 7)

Don't use Trakktor myself so unsure of the settings but will no doubt be similar to Serato

Try enabling/disabling the 'thru' option see if that makes any difference.

media player works on both laptops.

An older acer laptop I have still plays sounds through traktor (till it cuts out as its old and buggered) so it aint the mixer or connections or creative set up.

the hp (win7) playes sounds with strange delay between headfones and mixer.

the Dell (XP) doesnt play any sound but will play what traktor records through meda player etc.

It must be separate issues in the sound set ups for the other 2 laptops :S
