I have a lot of sample packs full of oneshots and loops. The only problem is when I want to use them in traktor I can’t find them. Where can I import them from a folder to work in traktor.
Also, Is there a way to cue the loops in my headphones while i’m browsing through them?
Cheers!
I made a playlist, called samples, with other subplaylist divided by genres for my samples (and every sample in the name as bmp note and type)
You can cue them while browsing using the preview deck (you can also assigns a button of the keyboard or of a midi controller for load it in the preview deck and play, then stop and delete from preview deck)
It also helps a lot to do some preparation work: Only import the samples which you think you really need which doesn’t meen 100s of kicks for example. Up to 5 kicks should suffice for one DJ set. Probably only one would work either.
If you are using S4 you can go into browse mode and listen to the sample much like you would a normal tune by pressing down the browse knob… I use my loop buttons to search through the files - no custom mapping - this is all out of the box
There are a couple of ways of doing it… you can sample it in the normal way or use the D deck to control them… I think (he says writing this at work) that you can cue the samples separately on the D deck
