Traktor F1 and STEMS

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hi guys,

I'm thinking of creating my own STEMS with MAschine MK3 and then exporting them as STEMS with Stem Creator.

I then would like to buy a couple of F1 to use live STEMS.

I saw there are 4 faders to select each of the 4 instruments, but the 16 PADS can be assigned to 5 STEMS track? Or can I assigned more pads to more tracks?

How does it work?

Thank you!!!

@Eclectic Lily hello there.

Each 4 pads in vertically direction, is assigned on the fader on top.

So, there are 4 channels with 4 pads each.

Hope my English make sense. Cheers!

I'm playing around with similar concepts atm having just bought a used F1. Bought 'Kitmaker' a while back, having bought an MPC as I wanted to convert my Machine expansions. I was actually wondering if it would create 'Remix sets', given it is all based on a 4x4 grid. Given that most of my life experience is pre-computer it's all a bit hazy to me, but I was thinking of combining loops and one shots from various sources, Machine, sample packs, Loopcloud, Splice etc etc. Maybe best to stick to manual one slot at a time kit construction. Can't see how creating stems from Maschine should be a problem though. Good luck with it and the F1 is a whole lot of fun.

I think you are getting confused re the 5 vs 4 thing. There are 4 seperate tracks. The 5th track is the combined 4 tracks. IE: The total mix. I assume that's so you can load it into a track deck. Using that, you could offload the remix track to a track deck, thus freeing up your remix deck (and F1) for the next remix.

Also, while it would be nice to have 2 F1's, One alone is pretty useful as it's pretty quick and easy to reassign the deck to which it is assigned.

Hello @Eclectic Lily,

I made a post about the stem creator, watch out if you are on PC the audio quality of your stem file won't go beyond 252kbps if you make it through Stem Creator:

At this time I do not have any solution for you to propose unfortunately I'm still trying to find one.

Hopefully it will help you!
