The level of the audio recording can be controlled with the GAIN knob.If the external audio source is already active and everything is set up properly, the level meter in the Mix Recorder will show an amplitude.Open the Mix Recorder by clicking on the tape symbol close to the upper right corner of the TRAKTOR main screen.Now the external audio signal can be recorded. In our example this is Input FX Send (Ext). In the menu External Input, select the channel assigned to the input channel of your audio interface.Select External to configure the Mix Recorder for recording an external audio signal.In order to record the incoming signal, the input source needs to be directed to the Mix Recorder via the TRAKTOR channel we assigned in the previous step. If the external audio source is active, the level meters next to the corresponding channel will now show an incoming signal.However, we recommend the use of Input FX Send (Ext). Note: You can also assign your input source to any Input Deck *Deck letter* if you are not using that Deck to play back your tracks. In this example we will be routing the input signal of channel A ( Ch A Left and Ch A Right) of the TRAKTOR AUDIO 10 into the TRAKTOR channel Input FX Send (Ext). Choose a TRAKTOR channel pair to assign your input source to.Go to TRAKTOR Preferences >Input Routing.In order to send the signal from the input channel of the audio interface into to the Mix Recorder, the input source needs to be selected. Note: the input channel MAIN ( IN 1-2) on the TRAKTOR AUDIO 10 only accepts Line level. Set the Input Sens to Line if you are connecting a CD player, DJ mixer or other source into the input channel.Set the Input Sens to Phono if you are connecting a turntable directly into the input channel.Set the input channel to the appropriate input level ( Input Sens) by going to TRAKTOR Preferences > Audio Setup and clicking on Settings to open up the Channel Setup menu in the Control Panel.In this example we are using the input channel A ( IN 3-4).

Connect your external audio source to a free input of your audio interface.Make sure that the audio interface is connected and recognized and then launch TRAKTOR.In this example we are using the TRAKTOR AUDIO 10. The external audio source needs to be connected to a physical input of the audio interface. This setup requires an audio interface equipped with at least one input channel. This article explains how to record an external audio signal in TRAKTOR PRO 2 using the Mix Recorder.
