Okay then folks. Here goes...

I've just forked out some of my hard-earned for Traktor DJ Studio and my initial tests are going quite well. I like the way it organises tracks in it's collections and the extra fine control you get over how you play your music.

However, I do have one little problem that I hope one of you guys (or girls!) may be able to help out with.

When a track loads, I want the pitch setting to stay at neutral - ie 0. Not -, not + just 0. However, when the tracks load, the pitch setting often sets itself to extremes on +/-. This is not what I want. I'm really not too fussed about making the perfect mix. I'm a wedding DJ and I want my music to play out the way it was recorded. I don't want Robbie Williams to sound like Barry White or Bryan Adams to sound like Pinky and Perky.

So, ultimately, I want every track to load in at a level pitch. Any help would be gratefully received as I'd like to be taking this out on the road with me in the next few weeks.

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the advice, lads, but I can't find such an option in Prefs (or in the manual for that matter!). Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm using Traktor DJ Studio 3.

I have found the Auto play feature, though, so that's one task less! :)

EDIT:

Found it! It's the Synchro Start feature! Got it working well now!

Thanks for the help, lads! :beer1: :beer1: :beer1:
