User Manual

▪
At the top center of TRAKTOR, the MAIN level meters should show some activity. If not,
check that the MAIN knob is raised.
If you see some activity on the
MAIN
level meters but don’t hear any sound, then double-
check the audio setup and audio routing in the Preferences following the Setup Guide.
Please note that, with TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO/DUO 2, the master out knob/fader on your
external mixer works independently from TRAKTOR’s MAIN knob. Adjust both carefully for a
clean, loud signal, which is not clipping.

how to mix in a second track. On the way, you will learn a few basic mixing tasks that ev
ery digital DJ needs to know: how to pre-listen tracks, synchronize tracks, start the play
back at the right position, and mix the tracks together using the crossfader.
Prerequisites
