**Does anyone know how to add a real brake function into traktor pro 2…Numark 4Trak**

I have a Numark 4trak controller and traktor pro 2 version 2.1.2. I really need to be able to map a key on my controller to work as a real brake. I know there is a brake effect in the FX in traktor but that is no good really in real time mixing. Any help would be really appreciated as I love the controller and traktor but the lack of a brake is a major issue for me. Thanks.

I use dry/wet trick for brake effect. Invert button to set dry signal while TTFX is buffering.

D/W / button - direct / value=1  
D/W / button - direct / value=0 (check invert in button options for this entry)

If you map this correctly you’d be able to hold a button to send Wet signal for the brake effect to apply and set Dry soon as you release the button.

Yes. Add a toggle type modifier and assign values to play/stop the track in direct mode.

I’m afraid not. The flux mode isn’t meant to ring any effects.
