User Manual
▪ Pulsating in color: the Sample associated with that pad is about to play — typically when
quantize is on and you've fired the Sample (by hitting the pad), but the Quantize Value
hasn't been reached yet and the Sample is not yet playing.
▪ Bright white: this only happens in special cases, such as with the Overview function (see
also ↑4.2.7, Encoder Knob).
▪ Dim white and pulsating in white: these are also "special-case" states, and described in
↑4.2.11, The Pads.
▪ Off: no Sample is loaded.
Mute (STOP) Button Illumination
The Mute (STOP) buttons have just two illumination states: lit (orange), and unlit. When the
button is lit, you can hear the corresponding Sample Slot. When the button is unlit, the corre-
sponding Sample Slot is muted.
You can adjust the levels of the on state and dim state brightness of the F1's buttons
and pads in the Traktor Kontrol F1 section of TRAKTOR's Preferences. See ↑5, F1 Pref-
erences for further information.
