Just made the switch to digital from CDJ1000's.
I have mapped a UC33e, Novation Zero SL MK2 and DJ Endo's TSI for Maschine. I have a few newbie questions:
1. In the Controller Mapping preferences how do i set the MIDI in and OUT Ports correctly. Right now all units are set to ALL PORTS as i do not know which ones i should select in the preferences.
2. In the drop down list, There are 2 settings for Maschine, one is DJ Endo's, the other one i think is the default Maschine comes with. I have the UC33e and Novation Zero SL mapped under Generic Midi, should these be separated to set the Midi ports independently ?
3. I have selected ADVANCED deck layout. But everytime i export my settings and relaunch Traktor, the decks do not show the advanced tabs like Active, Grid/Cue etc. I think this may have to do with DJ Endo's GUI settings which are also exported along with mine. Or i am doing something wrong.
Please help!
4. Super Newbie question: I am so confused between CUE, Loop In and Hot Cues!!
Coming from a CDJ in CD Mode, i find the first transient of beat one and Hit Cue. Now everytime i hit CUE it goes back to my Cue point and when i hit play it plays from there. That is how i would like to use Traktor, at least for now till i get more used to it. How do i manage this in Traktor. I set my first Cue point and Hit play. Then when i hit Play agin it pauses and if i hit CUE again it drops a new cue point at that place. I would to return to my first cue point and then play form there. I hope i made sense. What is the correct Traktor method of doing this, what is the command called so i can map it .
Thanks you so much, this is my first post and this seems like a fantastic community!!
Cheers
