Need help setting up XDJ 1000s w/ 900NXS & Traktor

How's it going, fam? So, I followed everything on the tutorial (at least, I thought) and I cannot seem to get the correct routing of the signal as both decks are playing through the same channel on the mixer. 

What is the correct routing supposed to be in Traktor? Can someone assist with the appropriate connection for 2 XDJ 1000s with the 900NXS and Traktor? 

Def appreciated!!

The most important thing to note here is that the XDJ-1000s will not be producing sound–they're acting only as MIDI controllers. If you're using a MacBook Pro, purchase a quality AC powered USB hub and connect your XDJs to it. Connect your mixer directly to your MacBook Pro via USB.

1. Make sure your version of Traktor is up-to-date (or a recent version that natively supports XDJ-1000 HID, 2.8 was the earliest I believe).

2. Ensure your DJM and XDJ have been updated with most recent firmware. Ensure your XDJ preferences for MIDI/HID is set to Advance.

3. In Traktor, go to Preferences>Controller Manager and select XDJ-1000 under Device tab.

4. On the XDJ-1000, press the "Link" button. Then press the rotary knob to select "USB MIDI." Select a deck for the XDJ to represent (A,B,C or D). I'd recommend having one as A and the other as B to keep things simple.

5. Now we have your units connected, but we need sound. Go to Traktor Preferences>Audio Setup. Select the DJM-900 as your audio interface.

6. The important part: routing. Go to Preferences>Output Routing. Be sure mixing mode is set to External.

7. On the Pioneer Mixer, adjust the Channel Switches for Channel 2 and Channel 3 to USB. Note the respective numbers (3/4 for Channel 2, 5/6 for Channel 3).

8. In Traktor's Preferences>Output Routing, change Output Deck A routing to DJM900nexus 3 and DJM900nexus 4. Change Output Deck B routing to DJM900nexus 5 and DJM900nexus 6.

You should be all set. If this doesn't work, create screen grabs of your preference settings or create a video so we can better understand your setup.

Cheers.

This couldn't have been any more clear!  So on point!  Honestly, this is the best explanation that I've heard.  Much love!

Nice! Glad you got everything up and running. :-) Enjoy!

 

P.S. If you press and hold the rotary knob you can switch the Deck Assignment so you can essentially control the four decks using only two XDJ-1000s–though things can get confusing rather quickly if you're not paying attention lol. ;-) Cheers.
