Thank you Sir for the awesome video, fiddled with my settings and have a gig tomorrow!! was stressing that I messed something up! this tutorial really helped me understand the settings a lot better as well as restore my confidence for my gig! Again.. thanks so much! all the best..
Wish I had started off with watching this instead of diving right in to playing without fine tuning my preferences. Glad to have it all sorted now though! Thanks for the great walk through!
Late comer to the DDJ world!
Bought my first set of 1210s in 1991 and had been buying vinyl since around 1985. Recently woke up to this new fangled approach to DJing, the digital realm. Ooooooh, you lucky, lucky bastards!!!
Bought a second hand S4 mk 2 yesterday to dip my toe in and see if I like what looks incredible to an old school spinner.
These videos, and the series, look incredible for someone starting out. Thank you so very much for sharing your obviously hard-earned knowledge for free here on CZcams. I think, with your help, this could all very well start making an awful lot of sense! Kudos DAVE, massive respect!
Thanks for the comment and respect for you for turning to digital as well as vinyl. If you check out thd point blank, crossfader and ADSR channels as well. I am on there with other tips and tricks. If you ever need any advice just shout.
Fantastic. Just what we new S2/S4 users needed.
Thank you so much for doing this video.
Very informative and easy to follow along with step by step. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
You’re more than welcome Charlotte and glad it helped. 😊
Thanks a lot of you for sharing this video.
Thank you so much and looking forward next video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You are welcome Anthony? 😊
Thank you so much for doing this video.
Just got myself an Kontrol s3 & noticed you were saying about CUP (Cue Play). If you press shift and cue it works in the same way.
Thanks Dave for the great video.
Thanks for the comment and glad you liked it.
Danke, Ihre Tutorials sind sehr gut, ich setze immer noch Traktor und ich werde gerne Hilfe erhalten, du bist gross
Very usefull video, tks for the share Dave.
Thanks Femin and glad it helps
Thanks Dave! Greetings from Brussels!
You’re welcome Diego and hello 👋🏼 Brussels.
26:10 I have filter there because the effects bar uses the effects in the order you have them. Thus you can decide whether you wanna have the filter before or after the other effects.
More s4 mk3 stuff, just basic beginner stuff, there isn’t one on CZcams or anywhere on the internet! You would be a saviour 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I’m on it Will 😊
I just watched your video... brilliant 👍🏾.
Great lesson! Thanks)))
Thanks a lot mate =) in top of that u allow me to practice my english skills so its perfect
Awesome glad it helped 😊
Very helpful, thanx a million. :)
Brilliant! Thank you!
great video thanks
Don’t quote me (and I know this was 4 years ago and perhaps older version) but I think play count and the played marker are different attributes. The play count is a total ‘ever’ since you added the track to your collection, so you can see which tracks you play the most etc. the tick only shows you if you’ve played it in your current session. Both are very useful but for different reasons : )
Good job, you got a new sub!
Thank you. Much appreciated
great vid
Thanks Greg.
GRACIAS!!
Wow so amzaing this video i relly like it
Really good video , can’t wait for you next one on remix decks sample decks I just got the s2 mk3 and and would love some help figuring out how to configure the pads to trigger loop samples just once by holding the button and perhaps pressing the pad below to keep it looping on and off
Thanks Lee. I will definitely be covering that in the next few weeks. 😊
can you use the bottom row of the buttons to activate loops, or you can only use them to mute? because in NI introductory video, the presenter used buttom row buttons to mute the top row ones... Thanks!
Awesomeness !!!@@DAVEDigitalandVinylExpert
I’ve done a custom mapping I’ll try put a short vid up I think the mapping could be enhanced more tho where the echo freeze disallows you to load onto the deck side until you deactivate it wish I could figure that bit out
Great work. Looking forward to seeing it.
Good video
Essential !
Nice video
Thanks for the video! (Y)
thank you ! :)
Hey ! Can you please tell me if there is solution to fix my problem. MY traktor S4 MK2 has this problem of not able to load tracks using load button right side on deck B. Also sometimes it auto loads the track into deck B. The buttons and cue tack 1 button flickers light and there is no problem whatsoever with the left side .can someone help me .
I’m having real trouble setting up the K2 with traktor pro 3
thx!!!!!!
Hi, @Dave, big thanks for this review! Could you tell me how to speed up or speed down track in tracktor when i use HID integration with CDJ-2000? Cause when i play using usb flash cards its fine, but when i using HID and CDJ i couldn't speed up or speed down track normally. I want to use CDJ as CUE, Play, speed up with jog wheels.
Thanks Sergey, Thy don't work in HiD mode? That's weird because they should. Would you mind sending me a little video of you settings and it not working to dave@digitalandvinylexpert.com and i'll try and help :-)
Hello. I've recntly got a Traktor Kontrol S2 Mk1 and am installing and learning the various software. I'm running the Traktor Kontrol Pro 3 Demo and don't really know what i'm doing. Still trying to get everyhting working.
Base speed is for dvs (digital vinyl system), for example, if your turntable is at 33 you want traktor to be at that base speed too.
Great vids btw!...Id really love to see one with the fx section and on a Z2 mixer, Im struggling atm😲
Thanks Crab. Check out czcams.com/video/e4ksXwYaebs/video.html I did for Crossfader and see if that helps and feel free to email with questions to dave@digitalandvinylexpert.com on the z2 and happy to help 😊
how do i import my apple music into the i tunes store? thanks in advance!
Dave been a while since we last spoke, my Traktor setup and DJ’ing is going really great! Just a qq for you - a DJ friend of mine is frustrated when he comes over with usb because his pioneer playlists don’t show up in Traktor and he has to scroll the folders to sort his music, is there a way through the settings or something that Traktor can read Pioneer playlists from a usb?
Glad to hear it’s going well :-)
So rekordbox folders can’t be seen unfortunately so I’d advise him looking at recordbuddy2 where the software can see rekordbox, serato and traktor cue points etc.
What I do personally is make a crate in rekordbox and export as a playlist and then as songs so I can see them.
hi thanks for the video! really helpful, you said somewhere in the video about looping.. where can i find this video? Thanks. D
Hi Miss Coby, thanks for your question. TBH I can't find the part about looping. do you know what time in the video it was please?
is there a way to turn off the auto que point 1 when I load a track? this is driving me crazy .. i don't want my first que point to be where they put it... Thanks
Brilliant video! Subscribed, even though I don't have traktor yet... Trying to figure out if it is good for me, and I see that it doesn't suggest tracks based on the track that's playing. Or does it? Do you know if it will?
Thanks for the sub! And unfortunately no suggestions as of yet.
23:45 "remix decks are being liked", i dont understand much about my new (used) s2mk2, but even I see the potential these babies will be having. never was it easier to just "obtain" good loops :D
In the newest Traktor 3 preferences, there is "Apply Headroom to Channel meters" in Mixer > Internal mixing mode section. Do you tick that option? Why? Thanks for all awesome videos Dave!
Thanks Won,
Applying headroom is like a limiter so instead of it going to 100% and then clipping and possibly distorting, it will stop at say 80% leaving it safe to push up full.
Does that help?
@@DAVEDigitalandVinylExpert Yes, I guess that means if I need to apply those to channel meters as well. (Wasn't 100 % sure if just having one limiter (on master output?) is enough.
how can I return from stutter mode to play mode the hotcues in traktor pro 3
11:47 - is there a button to change the tempo range on the S4 MK3? I've recently bought it (for 4x deck mixing and DVS) but have kept my XDJ-RX - all Pioneer gear has a dedicated button to change the tempo slider ranges so would be surprised if Traktor didn't. I don't want to touch the laptop when DJing and also it seems a bit silly to have to go into the settings each time you want to change the tempo range (particularly if an open format DJ).
Hi Science. Good question but unfortunately no. You could midi map 2 buttons to do it for you though so there is a work around.
@@DAVEDigitalandVinylExpert hmmm. Thanks for the response, and great video too - really informative and very helpful.
Hello sir,
Do you have a video showing how to setup the time code turntables?
I have focusrite 2i2 as my sound card and Traktor Z1 as my mixer and 1 Stanton STR8-60 turntable. Please help with setup 🙏🏾
Thank you in advance.
Hi i don't unfortunately but it would be better in this setup to use the z1 as your soundcard so you can hear the headphone cues. Happy to talk you through anything as well.
hey, let me know, is it Traktor mixer eq cant full kill the sounds of song? if can, let me know how.. im running at numark mixtrack pro fx.. thx
Super
HI Dave, can you please make a video on how to set up Traktor with a mixer Pioneer 750 MK2 or any links that can help. My low, mid and high work on the mixer but my channel fader, crossfader, effects, color control and ... don't communicate with my Traktor. Thanks :)
Hi Juan, I would definitely but I don't the 750 mk2 unfortunately. However I may be able to help you. Did you install a mapping for it? if so I can help you map the other parts if you wish :-)
Hi quick question. I am running the pioneer djm t1 and when I go into my audio output in traktor. It won’t let me bring the sample rate down to 44.
Unfortunately not. Same as the S8. It’s held at 48.
Thanks for the great tutorial! However I still can't find where I have something set wrong for the following issue: "CUE'ed track wont play until I press Grid"
These are the steps I follow:
* I load track onto deck
* I then Cue track using Jogwheel and hitting "CUE"
* I then hit "Play/Pause" when I am ready to play the song and occasionally (+-50% of the time) it starts playing
HOWEVER:
* Occasionally (+-50% of the time) when I hit "Play/Pause", the play button lights up green on the traktor pro 3 panel, but the song doesn't actually play.
* I then found that if I hit "GRID" the song will start playing only after this.
I wonder why this is? I didn't have to use the GRID key in the past, only after reloading the software on a new device after a few months off.
Hi Allen that’s very odd. You have to make a grid cue or anything to play the song. Out of interest if you turn sync and quantise off does it make a difference?
@@DAVEDigitalandVinylExpert thanks for the message. It happens whether sync and quant are on or off, that makes no difference.
I see someone has this issue 10 years ago with Traktor Pro 2 and this thread explains EXACTLY my issue, but no solution: www.native-instruments.com/forum/threads/super-weird-behavior-traktor-pro-2s-deck-b-wont-play.161579/
How to use beatport with Traktor
In perfences havent stream service!!
Hi I noticed that when you playing the deck A the phase meter is moving without playing any song on deck B. Is there any way to stop it from moving? Thank you!
Hey Robert
You can go to preferences and hide the phase meter if you wish ;-)
But what is your audio device haha ^^ the real hack in the begenning of the video :)
Hi Dave, I have a Traktor Control S3 which I absolutely love. What's baffling me is while watching some of the top DJ's sets on CZcams, you never see them using the pitch control but always see them nudge the jog wheels. My DJing originally comes from the good old SL-1210's where you cannot get away from using the pitch. I've seen Fatima Hajji using the pitch before but not many others. What are these DJ's up to?
Hey I still rock my 1210’s they are the best :-)
So a lot of people now will process their tunes in their chosen software like you would in traktor and obviously then you can use sync if you want. Meaning all you need to do is nudge the job wheel if needs be to align them but no need to change pitch.
Also a LOT of ‘pro DJs’ warp their tunes so they are all the same speed. Therefore leaving the pitch on 0 and then just using nudge platter again to align.
Fat Boy Slim is famous for it as he admits he’s not the best dj in the world.
Lastly too many ‘djs’ make their mixes in a DAW and then mime 😞 so they touch things to look like they are doing something.
@@DAVEDigitalandVinylExpert OK that makes sense. I don't personally see anything wrong with that, but I guess there'll be DJ's out there who would condemn such a thing, also like using sync, which again I have no issue with because you still have to know that art of blending soundscapes together to make your performance sound the best it can. Thanks Dave :)
💯 I am one who protects people’s right to use sync as in some cases it’s absolutely necessary. It’s when people only can use one thing do I then recommend them learning other aspects incase it goes wrong. Trust me in 28 years of djing a lot has gone wrong with my djing and luckily learnt from it 😂
@@DAVEDigitalandVinylExpert Not gonna lie, having began my DJ journey some 30 years ago on the venerable 1210s, I would have openly scoffed at sync users. However, I have seen the light. It would be the same as condemning every digital photographer who uses manual mode on their DSLR. The technology exists. If the tech helps you be better, then to simply brand the user as something less than those who don't is narrow-minded in the extreme. You do you, just have fun doing it, and be proud of the results.
Hello. How can i see player-state on tracks? after last update, i cannot see it in traktor.
Thanks for the Video still like Traktor better than Serato sound quality. But where is the new Z2?
anyone using traktor pro 3 with s4 mk3 ? on windows 10 home my headphones dont play the next track inside headphones mix what can i do to make it work?
I do. What do you have selected in the audio setup ?
Hi Dave,
I've got the S4 MK3, and now you can modify in the controller manager the mapping, so I'm in a trouble maybe you know how to solve it.
When you select Channel A in TT mode, can move the pitch, and get 150bpm. Now change to C, and if you move pitch, and is in a different position than A channel, when you come back to A, is going to be a difference with the pitch.
I know how to adjust it not to move if you don't get to the previous position, the matter is that when I map this, Channel A pitch in S4 appears in traktor (computer) as channel C, and channel C appears like A. It's crazy, but I don't know how to solve or map this....
Do you have any idea how to do it??
Thanks in advance!
Sorry for the delay.
Have you got soft takeover selected? That makes it so it doesn’t jump when you move the fader in different states
thx;)
You’re welcome 😊
Useful video... But as I can read reviews on some forums, all Traktor MK3 series, have problem with MASTER VOLUME?! Its very low. You must open it from half and more for get some "good" sound and even that its not very loud (satisfied)... #NativeInstrumenst got something very bad about this... Any answers or suggestion about this...? btw I get my S3 before 3 months ...
Hi and thanks for the comment. I personally haven’t had an issue with the sound output of the S4 mk3. I’ve used this for big gigs and it’s been fine. I’ve used it alongside other mixers and decks and stood up well.
Oh great about the s3. Hope you enjoy
For whatever reason when I right click on a file in the browser window the Preferences menu pops up. Is there anyway to make this stop? I have a feeling that I inadvertently changed a setting but for the life of me I can't figure it out.
That’s really bizarre. Feel free to send me an email to dave@digitalandvinylexpert.com with a video of it and we will get to the bottom of it 😊
What does platter scope do? I use dvs, but still learning!
Hi David
Platter scope shows (or hides) a few different icons in your deck. A platter turning, a calibration signal and a minimise button. :-)
Dave, what do you recommend setting the master level on Traktor Pro 3 to? I find that 0dB is actually causing distortion and does not equal to 0dB on my external mixer. Therefore I find that a level around -8 to -10dB on my Traktor 3 software usually gives me a nice green signal with no distortion and I can then manually set the trims on the channels of my external mixer to mix at 0dB master level..
Hi Ankur, it all depends on the quality and volume of each song but I have mine so it’s just under the orange and all green and then I use the trims on each channel to keep it all in check so no nasty red lines :-)
Great video man & thanks. I just got a MK3 today and the day has been long in regards to setting the up.
I would love some help from anyone please.
My original setup is: two turntables, a DJM600 mixer & Traktor Audio 10 DVS . I would like to create a hybrid setup where I leave the original set up in place, the clip my Traktor 4 MK3 on top to use either or.
Then I can take the MK3 to gigs or loan it to a friend and have the original setup. I'm not sure it is possible or do I just sell my DJM600 as now it's in the way?
Sorry I forgot to mention the problem: No matter how i try to hybrid the two systems. The head phones on the MK3 will not work and the DVS signal is very low. I would appreciate any help guys. Thanks
PS. Only one request for your next live-stream. Could we get it in 1080p. It's a little hard to read the text for who lack 20/20 vision.
Otherwise it was great info.
Hi Marc thanks for the message. If you want to send me an email to dave@digitalandvinylexpert.com with some more detail and maybe a diagram I will try and help you.
1080p? Is it too small in 4K?
I'm having serious issues with the headphones output. It's not working at all.. I've tried re installing traktor pro 3. (3 times)
It's like the signal is not mapped to the controller.. :(
Hi Brandon. What’s the volume on the software at. Next to mix?

At 256 its same load and crackle and pops
At 1600 rate its a little less and a bit more stable although slow

I cannot scratch with the right jogwheel when music is playing... any idea?
What controller do you have and what settings are they on?
Hello, if i download all of my tracks in WAV what is the best sample rate to use?
thank you
Hi
Tbh 48000 would plenty good enough. With the S8 it defaults to that anyway.
Hope that help
How did you get the custom logo for the jog wheels?
They are actually stickers for the middle on your vinyl. You can get them made anywhere that does vinyl stickers. Shout if you get stuck.
Where are the other videos you mentioned? I was unable to find them in your video selection
Unfortunately they are still in the making due to work life getting in the way.
@@DAVEDigitalandVinylExpert No worries brotha. I had to return my S4 MK3 right after I got it because a jog wheel was defective. So hopefully today I get the replacement. I would very much like to hear your opinions on this new controller. Cheers!
It is a frustratingly great. It’s overall a great piece of kit but with the way I dj it’s not without its flaws.
How have you found it?
@@DAVEDigitalandVinylExpert I have been using an S2 for 5 years, so there is some muscle memory that I will have to overcome. Other than that, I still havent really had a chance to dive in because of the defective unit. So I have a gig this weekend, I plan on warming up at home prior.
I still love and use my S2 mk2 and won’t be getting rid of it at all.
If you need any help with the new unit just shout and good luck on your gig.
