    Default help with loops

    Hi, i have a total control and i use it with traktor pro, i dont know how to snap the loop in and out... traktor have something like snap to? i found a snap to beat option but it doesn´t do anything....
    i know that i can adjust the grid, but how can i snap the loop?

    the other thing is how can i map this button, i already try everithing on loop section.

    Top of the lay out should be a small blue button with 'snap' next to it, try that.

    loop size + set is the option you're looking for.

    set it as;
    button
    direct
    and select the loop size from the drop down

    "Active" works like this

    If you're playing a song, and you create a loop, you also need it to be "Active" for Traktor to respond be staying inside that loop. Consequently, if you're in a loop and you toggle "Active" off, you will leave that loop and continue playing out the track.

    If you are playing a pre-cued track from start to finish with "Active" on and halfway through the song, Traktor comes across a "Loop" it will enter the loop and not exit until you move to another cue point, or toggle "Active" off again.

    very handy as a shift function to the loop size + set function

    *waits for question about creating a shift button/function....*

    i already try that map, but the control doesn´t work to me... when i
    conect the total control doesn´t appear like total control, shows me "emulated
    midi control" or something like that... it works fine, but i dont know what im doing wrong....

    i´m using the numark tsi file from his site... already change some buttons, but this is the only thing that didn´t work (loops)
