Integrate Recommended Tracks function to Traktor Pro

Hi all,

Hello Native developers,

This is something I've been waiting for since 2015 and I really hope you can integrate it into Traktor Pro.

For years I've been using Traktor DJ (first edition) on iPad next to Traktor Pro. It has this amazing function Recommended Tracks on the right side of the screen when browsing through the playlists (see pic). It is amazing especially when I play multiple styles. I've been able to do whole events by just using "Recommended Tracks" Function.

Example 1: when playing Hip Hop, it easily shows me any tracks that fit the BPM AND the Key tone +1 up and +1 down. When the track I'm playing is 93 bpm, key 7m it shows all between 90 to 95 with 6m, 7m, 8m and 7d. And it shows at the top the tracks I've mixed multiple times with this one. So I easily can move through, Hip Hop, Funk, Disco, 80s, Trip Hop, whatever. It mainly gives me so many ideas looking at the tracks that are being suggested, that sometimes, seeing a track there, makes me think of another track which I wouldn't have tought of.


Example 2: When playing Electronic, i can make a mix so flavoured from DeepHouse to trance, Progressive, Tech House and back again. Especially with stuff that has melodies, this function is amazing because, it helps to find tracks that fit, especially because of the baselines that match in tone. Without any preparation I can just mix away.


The more I mixed on the Ipad the better the suggestion got, because the algorhythm was learning from every session. So you can imagine what you get after 5 years using this system.


You have the code, you've proven it works on traktor DJ, please can you bring it to PRO? I would even pay for subscription for this function.


A big traktor fan since 2008.


Love J.

    That was one of the best features from Traktor DJ 2. Can you imagine this with a very good real time stems and flexible beat grid?

    I'm also rather flabbergasted that this feature in the FREE software that I've become dependent on is NOT in the PAID software! I have an S4 and I want to use PRO so I get all 4 decks, but I've become so reliant on the Match feature for exactly the reasons you outline, that its hard for me to graduate up.

    Its really frustrating. Please add the feature NI Devs!

    We just have to keep pushing this issue. If thez would understand the marketing value, for openformat Djs, Wedding Djs, and Hobbz Djs who just wann have fun and not FAFF around with hundreds of Playlists before they cna play afround. Now that they've released Traktor 4 they should see the potential for this feature.

    Just imagine the Advertising:

    No more preparation, no more thinking what to play next, let yourself be inspired by TRAKTORS NEW Algorythm that will give you full access to tunes you forgot you even had! How about mixing Hip Hop into 80's, over to Reggae, Funk and then Soul, without prep, without switching through all the playlists and running out of time. And if the beat is too shaby, use the pattern player to beef it up. And later Live Stemsseparation, which will blow up the whole thing :-D

    Can't believe a independet developer did this for MAC users. I haven't tried it but I thought i'd post it here

    What update? And where to?

    Also, i will remove your double posts. There is no need to send the same message 2 or 3 times, but if you haven't posted much already it will take a bit before the first one appears. The posts of new users get checked before they appear to prevent forum spam getting through.

    I've been using Traktor since about 2002. I totally agree with the need for some tools to help mix from a big library on the fly.

    Much of my DJing has been long bar sets or parties where preparing a setlist is not an option and you really have to go with the flow.

    I thought it'd be amazing if you could favourite pairs or combinations of tracks, so that any time you stumble across a good pairing, you just hit a button. Then any such tracks could appear in a 'recommended' panel when you're playing.

    So it's still discoveries that you've made yourself, but you have the advantage of those recommendations just coming up in context - and it also gives you a super simple way of saving those great matches on the fly - just hit one button!
