Yeah, I bought Pro in Oct 2008 but won't gig out with it, sticking with Traktor non-pro until they sort out the problems.

woops, it seems NI has some major QA issues on the TP team.... the fact that it took so long to simply add 14bits midi support, and even more the fact that all kinds of stupid bugs came up that weren't there in the first place shows me they don't have a decent continuous build and automated unit testing setup in place, which is a huge issue for professional software development, as we all can see now ...
That's not the half of it, either. Frustrated users continuously crank out new forum threads on what's wrong, some other users are (rightfully) complaining that the forum threads are evolving into bash/flame NI parties (when the frustrated users need to (rightfully) vent). Even the moderators are taking some of those frustrations as personal digs against themselves which has resulted in at least one accusation of censoring when a thread becomes locked.
We need an intervention. :eek:
I am really surprised how buggy and imperfect 1.1.1 is.
I mean all this time and beta tests and final testing stages and makes me wonder how many people are on their beta testing team..? Maybe 5?
I'm thinking of just going back to Traktor 3.4
VCI-100 Black SE/ FW 1.3 / VCI-300
Traktor Pro 1.1.2 / Serato Itch / SL3 / Ableton Live 7
Korg NanoKontrol / KRK V4's
NI Audio 8 Dj / Pioneer DJM-600
Macbook 13"/ 2ghz
From what I've gathered, it seems that the beta testers have caught alot of the issues we are experiencing.
The problem seems to be the developers don't immediately fix the issues when caught, they instead mark them to be fixed on the next upcoming release.
Just a flag. I started yesterday with TPro 1.02.. Doesnt seems so buggy for the moment... I'll give a deeper try tonight in order to be sure It won't crash on saturday night
DJ rig : MacBookPro 13"/2.26 (10.6.4) + Echo Audiofire 2 + VCI-100 SE (3.5.1 tsi) + Traktor Pro (1.2.6)

Maybe it's just me and Slooney but I've never had any problems with Traktor Pro.
