Kontrol S8 or D2 hardware sort by Title,Artist, and Bpm only ?

D2Lover

Hi everyone, I'd like to reduce my sorting options on my S8 and D2's is anyone aware of a mapping or a solution to achieve this? is there a way delete code in the software so i wouldnt have to cycle through Key Rating and Import Date ?

Thanks in advance

Open the file '…\Native Instruments\Traktor Pro 3\Resources64\qml\CSI\Common\Deck_S8Style.qml', line 1195

Change this:

  AppProperty { id: browserSortId;   path: "app.traktor.browser.sort_id" }

to this:

  
  AppProperty { id: browserSortId;   path: "app.traktor.browser.sort_id";
    onValueChanged: {
      if (value == 1 || value == 3) {
        value = ++value;
      }
    }
  }

This will jump over browserSortId value 1 (and 3) directly to the next value (2 or 4). Plug in the numbers you want to jump over, i just arbitrarily chose 1 and 3. Value 0 is the standard playlist sequence by #.

If you do it like this, you can only turn the encoder in a single direction (incremental), since the other direction (decremental) will always always loop back to the next highest number.

I leave it to you to find out, which number is what sorting class.

Edit: This may impact the manual sorting of the Traktor GUI.

Hi

Thank you so much for your response. I've sent you a coffee via paypal.

You can simply remove the unwanted items from sortIds and sortNames in Screens/S8/Views/Browser/BrowserFooter.qml (line 20 and 21)

Cool, i didn't know that. Since this was an 'AppProperty', i had assumed Traktor managed this internally. Thank you! :)

Thank you! Please get back to us with results. @ErikMinekus has another solution as well. I haven't tested this at all and if you run into trouble, we'll find a way. :)

Taking @ErikMinekus' advice.

Return the code to it's previous state:

AppProperty { id: browserSortId;   path: "app.traktor.browser.sort_id" }

Then open the file '…\Native Instruments\Traktor Pro 3\Resources64\qml\Screens\S8\Views\Browser\BrowserFooter.qml', line 20+21

readonly property variant sortIds:          [0 ,  2     ,   3     ,  5   ,  28  ,  22     ,  27          ]

readonly property variant sortNames:        ["Sort By #", "Title", "Artist", "BPM", "Key", "Rating", "Import Date"]

and replace with

//readonly property variant sortIds:          [0 ,  2     ,   3     ,  5   ,  28  ,  22     ,  27 ]

//readonly property variant sortNames:        ["Sort By #", "Title", "Artist", "BPM", "Key", "Rating", "Import Date"]
readonly property variant sortIds:          [0 ,  2  ,   3     ,  5   ,  22 ]

readonly property variant sortNames:        ["Sort By #", "Title", "Artist", "BPM", "Rating"]

I hope this works. Gonna get out my D2's later to test.
