Going from Traktor 3 to Pro
Ok so I think I’m about to make the switch. What are the best advantages of Pro?
It looks like the effects operation is way different. I just got a midifighter and I really like the cue point chords that Ean came up with, but I don’t really think that it’s possible to do in 3.
If I install traktor pro on the same computer as traktor 3 will I be able to use them both (not at the same time, of course. just if I want to go back to 3)?
Yes, although they will use different collection files (you can import your Traktor 3 one into Pro, not vice versa).
You wont go back to T3 after a jam on Pro mate.
but what exactly is the tits about it
Better bpm counting
8 cue points
MUCH better MIDI implementation
Modifiers instead of those god awful MIDI Pages
TONS more effects
Four Effect Banks
Advanced and Chained effects
better MIDI clock management
better time stretching
better GUI
to start
things I like about pro. 21 effects. beats the crap out of 5 in 3, and you can use these in chained mode, which means 3 per channel. There are are least 6-10 effects I really like
Verb
Echo
Delay t3
Beatmasher
revg
beatslicer
Gater
are all kinda great for me. I also Like the gui.
I’m having a bit of trouble getting the mapping down. How exactly do you set up cue points and loops in this. I have an akai lpd8 that I’d like to set up for the 8 cue points for each deck. Also for the loops I’m trying to make 1 button start the loop and another button half it each time I press it.
Any help would be appreciated. Also is there anyway to make the pitch bend jogwheel scratch?
Also does anyone know how to make an endless knob scroll through the track list one by one. I keep assigning it as different things. And it either wants to jump by like twenty tracks or just go to the top or bottom of the list.
