Hei, just got my Z1 MK2 and TraktorPro 4 license this week and I have some questions as a complete newcomer to Traktor and DJ-ing. For the foreseeable future I see using this equipment at salsa socials events where the only mixing I want to do is have crossfade between tracks and use the Z1 MK2 mostly to control the volume and occasionally pre-listen to songs. I understand that this equipment is very overkill for what I want to do but in the future I want to explore more options. So this is the picture.
I've been playing with the Preparation playlist and I can get tracks playing from there in sequence but I would like to add a 2-3 seconds crossfade between songs. The only option I found is using the Cruise mode but this also uses Deck B but I would like to keep Deck B clean and only occasionally pre-listen to tracks. So is there a way to only play from Deck A and add crossfade between tracks?
