    Thanks bud. I really appreciate this video as my S2 has been sat abandoned for 18mth now. Just ordered the new part and hopefully it will be here before Christmas as I want to recycle it to a Polish friend of mine who is currently using my old Behringer BCD3000 (cost me £15) which is definitely not unto the task. I am not sure he'd handle learning on my DDJ1000 + CDJ 1000 mk3s or my NS6 + NDX 500s. So thanks again. Have a great Christmas and New Year. Peace, Love and Light to you all. Glyn - C

    Hi, I got Traktor S4 Mk1 and one of jogs is not working properly, it does stop song when I touch top plate, but when I start to spin it it just stays on place or moves a little to each side (like vibrates). Outer plastic plate does nothing when is spinned.

      I don't know if there is a specific name for it but unfortunately that is the main board. All of the connections go to it and the processor is located there as well. It may also be called the soundboard or the sound card

    I just bought an S4 MK2 and 15V power supply. I plugged it in to see if it worked and all it did was flow the lights then master usb light flashes. Does it need to be connected to my laptop to fully power on or is my unit fried? I have time to return it if needed. I do not have a firewire to connect and haven't downloaded the software and updates either. New to the equipment so hope it is nothing.

    Mine was not reacting at all, and I replaced the usb port, and now it lights up, but usb light on s2 is blinking, and on my pc it says " last usb you connected malfunctioned . . . " . Any fix to that ? Reinstalled USB drivers on my pc, tried different pc, tried solutions found online, same error every time.

    • @slplssmusic
      @slplssmusic  9 месяцев назад

      I'm super late to respond to this but if you still need help, you might have either switched one of the wires somehow or possibly the solder did not form a proper connection. You can check that with a voltmeter and maybe see where the problem lies. Sometimes it's tiny and something crossed without even noticing it without a magnifying glass

    Hey ! Can you please tell me if there is solution to fix my problem. MY traktor S4 MK2 has this problem of not able to load tracks using load button right side on deck B. Also sometimes it auto loads the track into deck B. The buttons and cue tack 1 button flickers light and there is no problem whatsoever with the left side .can someone help me .

    • @slplssmusic
      @slplssmusic  4 года назад

      Sounds like the button is just worn out or possibly damaged from liquid. Look for a SPST (single pole single throw) switch and you should be able to replace it. You might have to find one that's backlit (Unless you dont care if it lights up)

    Bought the part and took apart the table, then took it to a computer repair store for the soldering. Still getting the flashing Master indicator, is this because I haven't installed the software? Or could it be that the job wasn't done well enough? My PC might be the issue but I'll be bummed if i paid for repair and it didn't fix the issue.

      You need to remove the solder if posible else get someone to help you pull the part out while you apply heat to first the big connecters at the front apply heat to both of them then pull they should pull out and the 4 connecters in the back is still in for those do the same once the two main power lines are out put your soldering iron up to the 4 place it roughtly in the middle applying heat to all 4 at the same time and pull the part should come out

    Does anybody have any experience disassembling the traktor s2mk3? My crossfader is broken, effectively deactivating the unit. I cracked it open hoping it was just an unplugged connection, and I'm waaay in over my head.
    I bought this thing brand new 3 months ago, I'm so mad that I already have to deal with it being broken.

      Hello thank you for the reply.
      Wiggling doesn't help. I recently noticed there is a extremely low sound output coming from the right output channels.
      I've narrowed it down that the soldering may need to be bridged. It's the only option left, tried everything else.
      It's strange that it's both the right channel output but from what I read they are connected.
      Their seems to be a few people in a similar situation
