Create stem folder

JohnBKD

is there a way to make a stem folder in traktor’s tree?

Nope not possible. It's a disgrace :(

Create a Smartlist:

JohnBKD

Thanks very much for your reply :) …I think I tried that but the word 'stems' wasn't visible (or maybe I didn't see it), I'll give it another try and let you know.

JohnBKD

OK….so you're absolutely correct but I didn't clarify which type of stems. You're referring to original Traktor stems

I'm referring to stems that I've generated from tracks; is there a way to create a smartlist of those?

JohnBKD

…and there's no option to sort by tracks (generated stems has it's own icon). That would make it easier to sort and just drag them all into a new folder with playlists

As a workaround: When I create Stems with Traktor, I write #Stem in the Comment 2 during the process. Then it also works with a Smartlist.

JohnBKD

yes…I had actually considered that previously but I started generating stems from all different genres and different years. I thought it would be more intuitive not to have to search for generated stems for hours.

but thank you for your input, much appreciated 😊

ErikMinekus

Ah ok, I thought you could make a smartlist for generated stems based on this, now I see I misread.

CHANGED All Stems tree node 

The All Stems tree node has been removed from the browser to prevent confusion of purchased legacy stems with the new generated stems. This folder can be restored by creating a Smart List searching for ".mp4" in the file name.

I think I understand. I’ll give it a try.

Identical conditions? The same type of smartlist as pasted at the top? And using mp4 instead of stems.

ErikMinekus

It won’t work, because the generated .mp4 files are not in your collection as separate tracks, they’re internally linked to a regular track. So NI indeed would have to add a new condition for tracks that have linked stems.
