How about you also give us a portion of your earnings? I mean if we have to do all the answering, spoon feeding and giving advice, why not reward us with a little $$$?

Because we try to help others too , and then they help us and it goes like this, that is how a forum works. a forum is not for making money (except if your job is in the forum). After all i am not forcing anyone to help me, it's voluntary.

Totally agree with this one can we set up a contract with the topic starter?

The Quantize feature means you can only skip around the track in quantized units, which is the distance between two grid bars. Loops can only be an integer number of bars, and Traktor will match the phase of your tracks when using any of the cue functions.

Can someone elaborate on the above quote--> i.e.: can you force traktor to skip around the track to always the 1st beat of a 1 2 3 4 measure? I'm also certain the iphone traktor dj app does this by default. so how do i make tractor pro 2.6.2 (demo) do the same? Thanks, i've been trying to get an answer to this for weeks.

There is no phase sync in Traktor as far as I know. You can enable a counter that can tell you how many beats/bars there are until the next cuepoint.

For such an advanced software program, shouldn't this be standard? ..or maybe it's my naiveté, i've picked up djing only a few weeks ago. Correct me if I'm wrong but doesnt Ableton and the FREE iphone traktor app have this feature. Am I crazy to think it's a deal breaker?

'BeatSync' mode forces phase sync and tempo sync of the slave deck to the master.

Sorry, I meant phrase sync.
