Map the S8 to control 4 different group channels in Ableton live. The Apollo has built-in CPU chips x2, which helps, but most USB $200ish cards will not have this capability. So the system becomes less awesome for live-drumming, live-keyboarding via ableton, for example. 48,000 seems to force higher buffers, higher latency. The S8 runs at 48000khz, which stinks, because Ableton/Apollo/other DAWS (I have found, in general) run better with less CPU hits at 44.100. Keep in mind, running two IOs can tax your system, depending on the specs and settings. It does sync pretty well almost 100% of the time. Yes, ableton Link is now compatible with traktor. S8, Apollo, and one controller (Push 2, in this case) on the 2016 MBPro = no hubs required. I used the UA Apollo to accomplish this, as it's a thunderbolt IO, to avoid USB hubs in my setup. I do not like this idea for a mobile setup, personally. This requires an investment and some extra wiring. You can feed the audio into FX modules, use the faders, etc. That deck needs to be in "pass thru mode" to work. This allows you to control the audio signal as if it were another deck in Traktor. You can run two sound cards and feed Ableton into the S8 as an ANALOG signal to any deck you wish. So here are my discoveries as of late with the S8 and Ableton/Traktor: Has anybody done this or had any experience with this kind of performance setup? Unfortunately, I'm unable to secure a loaner S8 anywhere and this isn't really the kind of thing you can figure out in a retail store w/ a floor unit. Does Traktor offload any processing to the S8 hardware, or is the S8 purely 100% controller and all the processing is CPU-bound? Nothing too CPU heavy, but load is certainly a factor. The goal here is to have Traktor playing stereo files from our albums, with say, one remix deck going at times, and then have Ableton locked to Traktor's tempo and spitting out MIDI clock to Live and then setup Live to have a couple instruments going over any given song. Would I route that out to a separate sound card and then into the S8's mixer or is there a way to route that audio from Live internally to the S8?

Has anybody here done this? Is it as easy as it looks from the directions on NI's site or the youtube videos out there showing how to do it?Īlso, re: audio from Live. If I wanted to run Traktor and Ableton Live on the same laptop, I'm assuming that the sync between them is as easy as it looks settings-wise, and that it's easy enough to dial in negative latency on Live to compensate for latency.
