The fader start feature can be implemented for any MIDI controller available. As you will see in this tutorial you can map fader start either to the cross fader of your controller or to the individual channel/volume faders. You will see also why this does not work when using Traktor Kontrol S4 in its native NHL mode. Continue reading

What is new in Traktor 1.2.3? This update explains all changes and new features available in Traktor 1.2.3. Tags and MP3, FLAC and WAV files There have been some small and and big changes how Traktor handles tags. This PDF shows where Traktor stores the tags and how it integrates with iTunes and where problems can arise. 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. I won't tell more now, all details and and example will be available in this PDF. New and Changed in 1.2.1 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. Hotcues and Quantization This PDF shows how Traktor calculates the target position for quantized jumps to hotcues. 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.
