Traktor 2.5, How to set one shots as loops?
Hey all,
in the older Traktor I was able to set my custom wav files as loops in the loop deck. In the new remix deck it defaults them to one shots. How can I make these wav files loop? I can’t seem to figure out how to change this. Thanks.
You have to set the deck to advanced mode (like you would to set a grid on a new track) and select the sample you want to have the change applied to, there you will find a button to toggle between the two modes.
Another alternative is to map “remix deck>slot play mode” to your keyboard/controller.
those buttons can also be use “live” they change icon to tell you what they are doing at the time. There’s another little button that plays the samples backwards ! great for vocal drops and SFX.
I’m having trouble with my sample lagging when I hit the button to start button on my S2. Traktor 2.1 sample deck seemed to work better… easier to operate. Is there a way I can tweak 2.5 so that the remix deck/samples start right on cue.
yeh i had the same problem, it’s an easy fix something to do with the quantize you need to turn it off or set it to 0.
Hopefully this will answer the question for future users.
The method I found for changing a track from one shot to loop may not be the best option out there, but it’s how I did it. Hopefully you guys will have some luck with it!
First, I had been trying to get a drum loop that I made in Ableton to be a loop in Traktor. In the browser I navigated to the location I saved the file and loaded it into a sample deck slot from there, there were no options to make it loop. 
I randomly imported that file to traktor’s library, (right click, import to collection, as looped samples) then loaded the file into the sample deck from traktors collection instead of it’s previous location in the browser. 
Good luck out there guys!

if you have traktor f1 press shirt and type and tirn the knob till it says pl (playback mode) then press the pad you want to swap for 1 shot or loop then save remix set. hope this helps.
