Free Updates for Traktor Bible

Firstly, I would like to thank you for buying the Traktor Bible. Without your support I would not have been able to spend as much time as I did, working hard to provide you with this, the most precise and comprehensive resource about Traktor that is available to you the Digital DJ.

As I said in chapter 1 of the book, I will keep the information in the Traktor Bible up-to-date in several ways:

  • Bible PDF Update
    These are free updates available for owners of the book. You can download them with the following links.
  • Updated Editions of the Book
    Because so many things have changed in Traktor from version 1.1.2 to Traktor 1.2.1, I decided to update the book as well. There is no need to buy a new book. You will get all new information included in the Second Edition of Traktor Bible, for free in the form of the PDF updates mentioned in the previous bullet point.

This page informs about all available and planned updates for Traktor Bible. To download the updates select the book you own and answer the two questions at the end of the page.
Then click on Go To Updates.

1. List of Updates

No  Info For Status
1 LED Output
This update shows how to use the LED output features of Traktor. The PDF starts with a simple tutorial, explains the output-only MIDI commands, and shows how the settings for Controller Range and MIDI Range impact the output.

LED output was not covered in Traktor Pro Bible. This update is an extract from Traktor Bible, Second Edition, where LED output is explained in chapter 6.

3 New and Changed
This update is an extended and re-worked version of the PDF I made available during the Public Beta Test phase for Traktor 1.2.
This new version of the PDF is based on the relased Traktor versiopn 1.2.1. The PDF lists chapter by chapter what has changed from Traktor 1.1.2 to Traktor 1.2.

If you haven't updated yet it is worth reading the PDF before you make the switch to 1.2.1.

4 Tempo-based Automation of FX Settings and other Deck Parameters
This PDF shows one of the undocumented features of Traktor and explains how to implement some kind of tempo-based automation by clever use of the mapping possibilities.

8 Traktor and Maschine
A tutorial about the integration of Traktor and Maschine was the most frequently named topics in a survey I made some time ago among the Traktor Bible readers.
Currently a little tutorilas series about Traktor and Maschine is planned. And it will be available beginning of 2010.
I am currently researching if it makes sense to wait until Maschine 1.5 is released, because this version will include some improved mapping capabilities that are useful for Traktor as well.
