Hello! I just got the Traktor S4 less than a week ago and I’m a complete beginner to DJing.
I wanted help identifying all the effects being used in this Porter Robinson & Zedd beatport set from 2011. It looks like Porter is only using 3 effects on FX1 throughout the whole set and it sounds good. Being able to play something similar to this set seemed like a reasonable goal to achieve in a few months for a beginner. Especially at around 13:15 I’d like to produce effects like that and it seems like a beatmasher2 or beatslicer but when playing around with Traktor I can’t seem to emulate that particular sound.
(Also I realize while Porter is playing Zedd is feeding effects in off the other mixer to the right of the S4 however I’m only interested in the FXs being produced by Traktor.)
The beauty of Traktor is that with beat gridding and sync, a complete novice could string this set together after a few days practice given the tracks where all prepped right.
I can tell you how to get the effect at 15:00. Run the newest version of Traktor with a more than adequate set up.
actually wanted to make a thread on this, i wanted to know how do they make those vocal cutoff effects while the track is still playing. For example when zedd played one more time, the vocals would go ‘one more..’ then cut off with a swoosh effect. I know you can do this with vsts, but how would i do this with traktor live?
