Sample Hotkeys
Much more versatile than using the mouse is the use of Keyboard Hotkeys. One single key
stroke can trigger the following actions:
▪ If the slot is empty, a sample is loaded from the Deck above it.
▪ If the sample is playing, but muted, it gets unmuted.
▪ If the sample is playing unmuted, it gets muted.
▪ If the sample is stopped, it starts playing.
▪ If the sample is playing, press and hold the key to stop and reset the sample.
The Hotkeys for the individual sample slots from left to right are on Deck C: [Z]/[X]/[C]/[V]
— and on Deck D: [B]/[N]/[M]/[<].
Please note that these are the Hotkey mappings for an English keyboard layout. In case of a
non-english keyboard layout, the key labeling will vary.
Unloading a Sample
If at any time you’d like to clear the contents in one of the slots of a Sample Deck, simply
press [Ctrl] + [Z], [X], [C] or [V] for Sample Deck C and [Ctrl] + [B], [N], [M] or [,] for Sam
ple Deck D — and it’s gone.
→ The Sample Play button turns back off.
15.9 Using the Loop Recorder (TRAKTOR PRO 2 / TRAKTOR SCRATCH
PRO 2 Only)
Earlier we saw how you can use Sample Decks as a means for triggering one-shot and
looped samples. this is all based upon existing audio material. The Loop Recorder, on the
other hand, allows you to record new material on the fly!
