Messages from TRAKTOR

Hi. I know there are others mappings/mods for kontrol s4 mk3 but I really would like to see an NI update for s4 so we can change the effects in global section fx units with the controller. That's why I use a controller, not to use the mouse... I don't want to install other mods. For me is ok how it is, except what I said above!

Thanks, best regards!

Aaaa... oh ! 

Anyway... Mapping a midi controller in traktor was not a problem for me, but the s4 mk3 was not showing in the devices list for mapping. Now that I loaded a simpre mapping from djtt it apears. Like magic ! I don't know, maybe it was there all the time... (silly me, if that is the case 🤪 ) The mapping I loaded modiffy the "only browser" function to deseapear when a track is loaded and in that mapping I made the mapping for the effects to be selected via the fx knobs ! 😁 😉

All good now ! Maybe I'll also add more functions if I feel the urge...

BTW... I saw that the "loop"and "move" encoders transmit touch sensitive midi message ! I have some ideas... 😁

What are the possibilities of being able to add vst in the master out? like compressors, corossover, aural exciters. Useful tools for mobile djs.

They have said soon for the drum machine add on. I presume that would mean Traktor Pro 4 as well. What ever soon means is anyones guess. They seem to post a bit then go all quiet. Seems to be their way of communicating. Hopefully not too long.

When? Waiting

Yes I think we’re getting close to the TP4 Pro drop. Bit of activity building.

After testing rb and return to traktor, I find a fing I'm missing. The wave form preview in browser and the easy way to prepare next set. Just click in the preview waveform here and there and decide if the track is good for next set.

I know, I know... 🤣 I just mapped to keyboard to make it easy in traktor. That's why I love it, I can customise it how I want...

I hope the upcoming updates would be more focused on their customers (us, Traktor DJs) and not only for the company's financial gain.

I wasn't able to participate in the survey but if they will push thru with the Subscription Model, they better give us a good number of reasons to why we should stay with them and not to migrate to other DJ Softwares (who are already very ahead in terms of new features).

My wishlist:

1. Live Stems Separation (for live remix, mashups, scratch, wordplay, tone-play)
2. Music Video Playback (for clubs who require DJs to play Music Videos and for Mobile DJs who use Music Videos in there DJ Services)
