Traktor Pro 3: Deck-Focus didn´t change the letter (A-D) to orange? o.O

hi there

next "problem" compared to manual: there stands that the focused deck will change the Deck-letter (A-D) to orange (p.20 in german version, vice-versa in english, too, I think)

neither I know how to configure it as focus (think that the active playing is the focused one) nor see I the change the letter-color from white to orange at any deck at any situation 🤷‍♂️

    If you have an S4Mk1/2 connected and you set Hardware in preferences, you will get (on both sides) UpperDeck (Blue) or LowerDeck (White):

    If you have it set to Software, then you get a single deck in orange, which one depends on this assignment you can include in any of your mappings:

    If you set it to None or to Hardware without an S4Mk1/2 connected, you will get no colour at all.

    I do not have S4, but focused probably means what deck each side part of controller controls. Each of them controls two decks and one has to switch/focus between them. You will do it using Deck Select buttons in each side section.

    I'd check if Focus is on "Hardware" setting. If so, sfitch back to "software".

    thanks @Stevan and @Sûlherokhh , that was the failure by me: I used the last days only the software (without S4) cause I only wanted to learn TraktorPro3 and sorting tracks, so I let the S4Mk3-controller off 😔

    shows again, how good & helpful the Traktor-community is here at the forum 👍️
