How to do precise piitch fadding with Traktor Scratch Pro 2.6?

I want to test some editing I did on tracks but don’t wanna keep burning CDs to play on my CDJ-200s, But when I use Traktor 2.6 on my notebook I can’t use pitch faders with the precision of the CDJs (0,02%), I can just adjust to a maximum precision of 0,1%, which is ridiculous for old school mixing. Is it possible to raise the pitch fader precision on Traktor? So I can simulate things I would do on CDJs.

(please don’t mention Sync, that is not the point)

(If it’s not possible, should I try Serato?)

Tranks :smiley:

Change the pitch control percent, your probably on 100% or 50%. Turn it down to 8%

3

The range is not the problem, It still shows 0,0% and when I raise it, for exemple, it changes to 0,1%. I needed it to change to 0,02%, like a CDJ would.
Or, even better, I needed to type the value I want, instead of grabbing it and pushing like it really existed lol

4

the percent isnt that important tho? you should just be using the bpm which goes to the .01 when your pitch fader settings are at 8% instead of 100%

You’re talking about the percent off key right?

5

No , nothing to do with key man. Pitch faders work with %. CDJ ones have maximum precision of 0,02%. But the maximum precision I can archieve manually on Traktor is 0,1% which is preety much useless for really mixing.

I wanna know if there is a way of achieving a precision of 0,02% with Traktor. If not, does Serato has this precision?? (Everything manually, no Sync)

I’m just surprised to realise how an expensive software like this can’t simulate what a CDJ-200 does..

6

smaller range, smaller % inclines..

7

This. think about it

8

I’m not sure if we’re being trolled or not. My Traktor works in increments of 0.01 no problem and I use the 8% range

9

Mine doesnt, it jumps from 0,0 to 0,1 to 0,2, how do i change that?

i ALREADY TRIED RANGE

I think he is saying that the decimal points on the percentage only show the first decimal, not the second. What I would suggest is a proper grid and sync, otherwise, stop worrying about the decimal point on percentage and look at the decimal point on the bpm. That is more of an exact representation.

11

You are right about the decimsl points, but I don’t need an exact mix. If I needed to virtual mix I would hit “SYNC”. Thats not the point.
I need to test the editing I did on some tracks. Which I will play with just CDJs in the future (OLD WAY). And to test it I would need to use a CDJ. But my CDJ is a 200. That means I need to burn CDs, which is a pain in the ass. So I want to simulate a CDJ-200 on Traktor. NOT JUST MIX, I NEED TO MIX WITH THE PRECISION OF A CDJ.
There are not decimal points on CDJ-200s BPM counter. The only thing I care is the percentage of the pitch faders.

why not just edit all your tracks to exactly 130bpm…

13

Because I already do that, now I’m trying a new editing.

Does anybody here knows how to use Traktor or just hit sync?

14

woah man easy there.

Obviously, this is easy to figure out.

Traktor really does not have this precision. Because its really not a production tool.

I recommend upgrading your cdj’s, friend.

15

It does have the precision, or else it wouldn’t be able to make sync happen.
I just wanna access this precision.

And thanks for the tip of buying better CDJ, if you would like to send me the money thar would be an even bigger help :smiley:

16

Would I be able to make 0,02% pitch fading with SERATO?

17

Yeah, quite the insult saying that we don’t know how to use Traktor. Apparently WE know how to use it just fine.

18

Nobody answered my question yet, everyone wants to give tips and show thats knows more.
I want to simulate a Cdj-200 on a recent version of traktor, if it is not possible say “it is not possible” instead of saying “buy better cdjs”…
you are insulting me, i live in brazil and here a cdj-200 cost the same a cdj-2000 would in usa

please someone close this thread, i will find the answer somewhere else

19

The old way is to beatmatch by ear, not to count percentages and insult people on the internet. :wink:

20

Yeah, if you’re going to basically ignore / push aside any help that people are trying to offer you, and then insult them whilst their doing it, then please, be my guest and go ask somewhere else.

And on a side note: Everybody in a thread will read you first post, you don’t have to repeat your question over and over. It’s the same as shouting the same question over and over at somebody. They’ll get sick of it, because it means you think they’re stupid, and will not answer your questions.
