What does Traktor 2.6 mean for us s4 users?

What does Traktor 2.6 mean for us s4 users?

I have read a comment that states the default mapping is now able to be overridden. True?

Anyone implemented flux control into a mapping?

Is post fader fx an option or just standard now?

Cheers
MMM

ps … can’t search for “2.6” so please don’t go nuts if there is another thread already.

Post FX can be toggled

the S4 mapping is updated? or you must make your own? (for one knob FX?)

You don’t need to update anything. The macro effects can be loaded into a regular effect slot… control the parameters with the FX knob and dry/wet just like a regular effect.

like it! now THE question, compatibility issue with usb 3? they have solved it?

Can anyone confirm the fact about the default mapping?

Itching to get home and get downloading now!

What’s the compatibility issue?

I thought all USB 3 ports backwards compatible with USB 2… Just curious

Nope it still crashes with the Audio4, Audio8 and S4 plugged into USB3. It’s the exact same fault too …

…thats all i can test …

you just turn on FLUX for each deck you want it on, no mapping required.

You can also route the FX to post fader in this build.

yep with the beta drivers no problem, but i don’t know with the new 2.6, and i have a gig in a few hours xD, no way… for the next time

Please do not go to gigs with 2.6, test it in your studio for a week…

Do you mean there’s already a button on the s4 that has been set to do this then?

Mapping Flux

It’s very inconvenient to manually change the Flux parameter with the mouse.
Iv’e already did a few gigs with it. You’ll often find yourself switching between the On/Off for Flux.
For example: if you want to juggle the hotcues - it can’t be done in Flux mode (staying within a loop is also impossible within Flux).

I personally overridden the “Load” Buttons of each deck and mapped them to toggle between the Flux On/Off.
I do not miss the original state of those buttons, simply because it’s easy loading a track using the headphones “CUE” burron while in “Browse” mode.
Iv’e attached the TSI mapping file for you to enjoy.

Goodluck to you all,

I’m curious how did you get a copy before anyone else (to do a couple of gigs)?

nice one, thx!

Hum and you can only change song on browse mode then?! Right?!

You can only load in Browse mode, unless you cancal the Override.
I did a few gigs already because Iv’e worked with the prerelease of the 2.6 BETA version as well as the full release :slight_smile:

I don’t use channels C and D so I mapped those buttons to toggle Flux mode. The loop-length push knob works great for playing with loops for buildups etc. I mapped the jog wheels to control the effects and the jog touch also activates bass kill so that I don’t end up destroying bass bins or ears. The effect buttons under the effect knobs now cycle through the available effects.

This is the perfect setup for me. The override feature combined with flux mode, post fader effects, and the new macro effects make 2.6 an outstanding product IMO. It is pretty much perfect. I have no idea what they have planned for Traktor 3.0 :expressionless:
