Welcome to the TRAKTOR KONTROL F1! Document Conventions 1 Welcome to the TRAKTOR KONTROL F1! Dear Native Instruments customer, Thank you for purchasing the TRAKTOR KONTROL F1, and for your continued trust in Native Instruments products. The TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 is a dedicated add-on software controller, specifically designed for using the TRAKTOR Remix Decks. The TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 offers the best possible level of control over the Remix Decks, allowing you to quickly load, set up, and tweak Remix Sets.
Welcome to the TRAKTOR KONTROL F1! Names and Pet Names for Software and Hardware Furthermore, the following formatting is used: • Text appearing in (drop-down) menus (such as Open…, Save as… etc.) and paths to locations on your hard drive or other storage devices is printed in italics. • Text appearing elsewhere on the screen (labels of buttons, controls, text next to checkboxes etc.) is printed in light blue. Whenever you see this formatting applied, you will find the same text appearing on the screen.
Welcome to the TRAKTOR KONTROL F1! The TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Documentation at a Glance The TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Manual That's what you are reading right now! After reading the Setup Guide and following its instructions, you should be ready to go. The next step is to read this document, the TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Manual. The Manual gives an overview of the Remix Decks and how the F1 is perfectly tailored to operate them.
Welcome to the TRAKTOR KONTROL F1! The TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Documentation at a Glance For most people, the best way to learn their way around the F1 is to work through the tutorials while at the same time referring to relevant sections in ↑4, TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference. Above all, don't forget to try things out for yourself and to have fun! 1.3.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview About Remix Decks 2 TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview On the following pages, you will find a summary of the most important aspects of TRAKTOR's Remix Decks and the TRAKTOR KONTROL F1. First of all, you should know that as the proud owner of the F1, you have the ultimate controller for manipulating and performing the Remix Decks. Although you can use the F1 as a MIDI controller, it was designed principally for one thing: controlling the Remix Decks.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview About Remix Decks A Remix Deck in the TRAKTOR software. The Remix Deck is a proper Deck: It is completely independent with its own tempo, timeline, transport controls, sync, and can be scratched using Timecode. A few more specifics: • A Remix Deck can hold up to 64 Samples: This is provided by the new 4x16 Sample Grid, which is the "playground" area of the Remix Deck.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview About Remix Decks 2.1.1 The Remix Deck: A Full-Featured Deck Flavor A Remix Deck behaves like a Track Deck: you can pause, play, cue, loop, and scratch with Timecode control. You can also beat-match Remix Decks manually or let TRAKTOR do the work for you via the new SYNC and MASTER buttons. 2.1.2 Remix Deck Terminology With the new Remix Decks, we need new ways to describe things.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview Hardware Overview • Sample Cell: Each Sample Cell can hold one Sample, and has its own playback settings. You can load the same Sample into different Sample Cells, and give them unique settings so that the Sample plays back at different speeds, direction, or pitch in each Sample Cell. • Operating Modes (or just "modes"): The F1 controller offers various modes for configuring settings of Sample Cells, loading and manipulating Remix Sets and Samples, etc.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview Hardware Overview The top panel of the F1 with its three main areas. (1) Sample Slot Filter Knobs and Volume Faders: The four Filter knobs and the four Volume faders make up the upper part of the F1's top panel. The functions of these controls do not change in the different controller modes! For example, even when changing a Sample's speed in Speed mode, you can still tweak the Filter knobs and Volume faders in each of the Slots (read about the different controller modes in ↑4.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview Hardware Overview (2) Browsing and Modes: The central part of the KONTROL F1 consists of the Browse and Mode buttons, along with the SHIFT button and the dual function encoder knob (rotary and push). The MODE buttons are all dual-function. The function written on the surface of the buttons is the "main" mode that occurs when pressing them, while the name of the "secondary" mode (when pushing SHIFT at the same time) appears just below the buttons.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview Hardware Overview With the exception of the SHIFT button, the F1's buttons have two states, which means that they have both a primary and secondary function. The secondary function is attained by pushing the SHIFT button at the same time as the targeted button. In this manual, each button is named by both functions, with the secondary function written in parentheses. For example, the top-left button in the middle section of the F1 is called the SYNC (MASTER) button.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview Hardware Overview The four Sample Slot Volume faders at the top of the F1 control the volume levels of the four Sample Slots. Usually you will want them all the way up, but if a Slot (or just a Sample that is playing in that Slot) is too loud, you might want to bring the Volume fader down a bit. See ↑4.2.2, Volume Faders for further information on the Volume faders. SHIFT Button The SHIFT button.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview Hardware Overview The encoder knob has several functions, e.g., scrolling through the Sample Grid pages of a Remix Deck, or changing the controllers focus from one Remix Deck to another. The encoder knob is an endless rotary potentiometer. By turning it, you can dial a value for the parameter relatively to its current value in the software. The encoder knob has a step-by-step (incremental) movement.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview Hardware Overview The pads are obviously where you'll be triggering your Samples and building up your remixes. But they also have secondary function, which is activated by pushing SHIFT. The secondary function names are written along both sides of the Pad Matrix. See ↑4.2.11, The Pads for further information on the pads. 2.2.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview Hardware Overview • 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.
Tutorials and Workflows Overview 3 Tutorials and Workflows 3.1 Overview In this chapter, the idea is to walk you through a number of typical workflows that you'll need for getting proficient at using the F1. We've organized this from the very basics — such as navigating and loading — to more sophisticated manipulations for masterful live performance using your F1. We'll also show you how to build, set up, and save your own Remix Sets and give you a general overall feel for using the F1.
Tutorials and Workflows Preparations 3. 4. 5. Load in a Sample or entire Remix Set (see ↑3.4.1, Browsing Through the Tree and Loading the Tutorial Remix Set). Trigger the Sample, making sure that volume is up on that Sample's Sample Slot. Once you've done that, come back to this tutorial section to learn more. 3.3 Preparations At first, we need to prepare a few things to: • enable a Remix Deck in TRAKTOR, • and set the F1's focus to it in order to control it. 3.3.
Tutorials and Workflows Preparations 2. 3. 4. While continuing to hold SHIFT, turn the encoder knob to the left or right one notch — the Pad Matrix is divided into 2x2 squares, and the square representing the current Remix Deck begins to flash. At the same time, the 7-segment display indicates the current Deck: "dA" is Deck A, "dB" is Deck B, and so on.
Tutorials and Workflows Preparations The display showing "db" and the upper right quadrant of the Pad Matrix lighting up to indicate focus on TRAKTOR Deck B. If you just want to check what Deck the F1 is currently controlling, press and hold SHIFT. The display will show the Deck as explained above.
Tutorials and Workflows First Steps With the F1 3.4 First Steps With the F1 Now you're all ready to go! Of course you don't need to use the Remix Sets that we provide for you — the idea is also to build your own, once you get your chops. But for now, it's a good idea to gain some experience with a pre-built tutorial Remix Set so that you can get a feel for using the F1 to quickly and easily navigate and load the Remix Sets as well as individual Samples. 3.4.
Tutorials and Workflows First Steps With the F1 → Congratulations! You've just loaded a Remix Set into a Remix Deck! Make sure the Deck speed of the Remix Deck is 130 as this is the speed the tutorial Remix Set was designed for. 3.4.2 Triggering the Samples In a Remix Deck: Start and Stop Playback For the sake of this tutorial, we will refer to the F1's 16 pads as a grid with four columns (corresponding to the Remix Deck's Sample Slots), A, B, C, and D. We'll call the rows 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Tutorials and Workflows First Steps With the F1 The F1 pads as we will refer to them throughout this tutorial section. To start playback, proceed as follows: 1. 2. 3. Hit the first pad in the top row (upper left corner), pad A1. It should start playing. Hit a few more pads, this time in the other Sample Slots. Notice that only one Sample can play at a time in any given Sample Slot (e.g., in any of the four columns A, B, C, D).
Tutorials and Workflows First Steps With the F1 4. 5. Let's start the Deck again by hitting pad A2. Now hit the pad just below it on the same slot, pad A3. Notice there is a slight delay before the pad starts playing. This is because Quantize is on to ensure that your loops start in sync with each other, according to the phrase (quantization length) that is set for them. Only one pad (Sample Cell) can be playing at a time in a given Sample Slot! 3.4.
Tutorials and Workflows First Steps With the F1 Tapping the QUANT (EDIT) button once will toggle the Quantization on/off. ► Press and hold the SHIFT button, and then press the four Mute (STOP) buttons below the Pad Matrix one by one to stop all Sample Slots and reset all playheads to the Sample start positions. 3.4.4 Muting, and Tweaking Volume and Filter To mute Sample Slots, and tweak volume and filter settings: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. → Hit all four pads in the third row (pads A3-D3).
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid ► Press and hold the SHIFT button, and then press the four Mute (STOP) buttons below the Pad Matrix one by one to stop all Sample Slots and reset all playheads to the Sample start positions. 3.5 Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid In the following section, we are going to concentrate on the second page of the tutorial Remix Set ("Remix Deck Tutorial"). First of all, we'll need to put the F1's focus on to page two of the Remix Set.
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid The Page Selector on the left side of the Remix Deck also shows you are on page 2 of 4 of the Sample Grid. 3.5.2 Changing Pad Colors Notice that the second page of our Sample Grid is colored differently than the first. There is a clear pattern of red pads alternating with other colors. Each of these non-red colors is unique to a row of pads. All looks fine until our eye catches the pad in the lower-right corner of the Pad Matrix (pad D4).
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid Using the Encoder Knob to Change Colors In many cases, it might be easier to use the encoder knob to change colors. This might be especially true if you want to match the target pad's color with another pad's color by keeping the assigned colors in view. To change pad / Sample Cell colors with the encoder: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Enter Color mode as before, by hitting: SHIFT + REVERSE (COLOR). Press and hold the target pad.
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid ► You can now release the REVERSE (COLOR) button and the Sample continues to play forwards. Changing Back to Reversed Sample Playback If you actually preferred reverse playback for this Sample, it is just as easy to change it back: 1. 2. 3. 4. Push and hold the REVERSE (COLOR) button. Push and hold the target pad. Release the REVERSE (COLOR) button. Release the target pad.
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid 3.5.4 Fixing Pitch Now that we have repaired the color inconsistency of pad D4 and the reverse playback of pad A1 on page two of the Sample Grid, things are starting to look (and sound) better. But there are still some things that need to be changed. Let's start with pitch. First, make sure that Keylock is on for all four Sample Slots of your Remix Set: 1. 2. 3. 4. Make sure you are on page two (P2) of the Sample Grid.
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid all of them; but this is not the case, so just hit the pads (while still holding SHIFT) to toggle them on (bright orange). 5. 6. 7. 8. You'll propably notice that the third pad in the top row (C1), containing the "Bubble Gate" riff, is not in the same key as the rest of our Remix Set. Press SHIFT + TYPE (PITCH) to enter Pitch mode — both SHIFT and TYPE (PITCH) start blinking. Now push and hold the third pad (C1) and look at the display.
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid 3.5.5 Getting Size Right Another problem can be seen and heard, if you hit the second pad in the second row (B2). You'll notice that there is a lot of "empty space" (silence) where the Sample just doesn't play, before looping back to the beginning. You can also see in the Remix Deck waveform display on the TRAKTOR software that the actual audio material takes up half the length of the display area.
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid 3.5.6 Setting the Right Playback Type Things are slowly beginning to take shape. But we're not finished yet. There are still some pads that aren't playing right, or don't seem to be triggering like they should. This is where we will turn to Type mode, where we can determine whether or not a Sample is set to One-shot or Loop mode, gated or latched, and synced (with the rest of the Remix Deck) or not.
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid 4. Turn the encoder knob until the display shows "tr" for Sample Trigger Type. 5. The pads are now all purple except for one, which is yellow. All of the purple pads are latched, meaning that once they are pressed, they will "latch" on and stay on until another pad is pressed in the same Sample Slot.
Tutorials and Workflows Fixing the Second Page of the Sample Grid 3. 5. 6. To focus your ear on this Sample, mute all the other slots by pushing the Mute (STOP) buttons in the first, third, and fourth Sample Slot so that we just hear the playback in the second Sample Slot. Press the second pad in the last row (pad B4). It plays through the Sample and then stops. The pad turns dim white, indicating that the Sample is still armed to play, but it has stopped playing after having been triggered.
Tutorials and Workflows Making Your Own Remix Set 5. While continuing to press the pad, rotate the encoder knob two notches counterclockwise so that the display shows "1." This means that the play back speed is 1x (normal playback speed). → Congratulations! You have just repaired a number of wrongly set parameters in the tutorial Remix Set. You might want to take some time and practice making other changes to the set before coming back to these tutorials. 3.
Tutorials and Workflows Making Your Own Remix Set → We now have a fresh Remix Deck. On the TRAKTOR software, you'll notice that the name is "New Remix Set." 3.6.2 Loading Some Samples For the purposes of this tutorial, we will limit our choice of Samples to the ones that are already in your Collection as a result of loading, playing, and repairing the "Remix Deck Tutorial" as described in the previous section.
Tutorials and Workflows Making Your Own Remix Set 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Instead of pushing the encoder knob, we'll hit the pad where we want the Sample to go. Let's take the last pad in the first row (pad D1), on the far right. After a quick Pad Matrix animation, you'll see the chosen pad lit up dimly now, indicating that it contains a Sample, but is not yet playing.
Tutorials and Workflows Making Your Own Remix Set 3.6.3 Name Your Set! So far, so good. But we need a name. This is one thing the F1 can't do for us so we'll need to use the mouse and keyboard: 1. 2. Double-click on the name "New Remix Set" in the header of the Remix Deck. Type something like "My First Remix Set" and then hit [Enter]/[Return] on your computer keyboard. 3.6.4 Save! Although you have named your set, you have not yet entered it into your Collection, so it is not yet saved.
Tutorials and Workflows Making Your Own Remix Set 1. 2. Press and hold the SHIFT + CAPTURE (DELETE) buttons. While continuing to hold either one of the buttons, hit the pad that you want to "unload" (delete containing Sample). That's it! Page Deletion To delete an entire page from your Remix Set: 1. 2. 3. Press and hold the SHIFT + CAPTURE (DELETE) buttons.
Tutorials and Workflows Making Your Own Remix Set 3. While still in Edit mode (and in the Copy and Paste sub-mode) hit the pad containing "OctaveUp Perc." The pad now flashes and the display indicates "PA" for "Paste." 4. Hit an empty pad (for example, just under the pad containing our Sample). A copy of the Sample is pasted here. To make further copies, just repeat the process (hit the source pad, then the target pad).
Tutorials and Workflows Making Your Own Remix Set 6. 7. Exit Edit mode by pressing QUANT (EDIT). Play the Samples to get a feel for the shifting feeling you've created. Nudge Nudge is similar to Offset, only you are moving the starting position of the Sample by fractions of a 16th note. This is excellent for fixing small timing problems between Samples in your Set. 1. 2. Re-enter Edit mode, as described above. Turn the encoder knob until you see "nU" for "Nudge." 3.
Tutorials and Workflows Making Your Own Remix Set 2. While continuing to hold the CAPTURE (DELETE) button, rotate the encoder knob. You will see a Pad Matrix animation that will graphically indicate which of the four decks (or the Loop Recorder) will be the focus. At the same time, the display indicates the source names as well ("cA" for capture Deck A, "cB" for capture Deck B, and "cL" for capture Loop Recorder). Make sure the display reads "cA." 3.
Tutorials and Workflows Importing Remix Sets to TRAKTOR Making sure Snap (S) is active in the MAIN area of the software. Wait for a moment shortly before a downbeat in the track of the capture source Deck, then: ► Push the pad where you want to capture the loop. → A Sample of the previously specified length will now be captured from the Track Deck into the pad. 1. 2. 3. Push CAPTURE (DELETE) to exit Capture mode. Now hit the target pad to get it to start playing.
Tutorials and Workflows Using F1 for Stem Deck Control Make sure to check the website from time to time for additional Remix Sets provided by Native Instruments! 3.8 Using F1 for Stem Deck Control In this tutorial you will learn how to load and play back a Stem File, and how to perform on Stem Decks. Stem Files allow you to interact with four different musical elements of a track independently while DJing.
Tutorials and Workflows Using F1 for Stem Deck Control When a Stem File is played back using the F1 controller, the Pads will function as level meters for visualizing the output volumes of the Stem Channels: as the Stem Channels become louder the more the Pads will illuminate. If a Stem Channel provides no audio signal the Pads remain unlit. In addition, the Slot Volume faders and Filter knobs of the F1 control the four Stem Channels of the Stem Deck. 3.8.
Tutorials and Workflows Using F1 for Stem Deck Control 2. Hold the SHIFT button and rotate the encoder for navigating along the Browser Tree and select the All Stems folder. 3. 4. Release the SHIFT button. Rotate the encoder for navigating within the Browser List and select a Stem File. 5. 6. Push the encoder to load the Stem File into the Stem Deck. Push the BROWSE button to leave Browse mode. → The Stem File is now loaded into the Stem Deck. 3.8.
Tutorials and Workflows Using F1 for Stem Deck Control → The Stem File is now playing back similar to a conventional track in a Track Deck. During playback you will notice the Pads light up indicating the output level volumes of the Stem Parts. Adjusting Volumes of Stem Parts To adjust the volumes of key elements from the music: ► Move the four Slot Volume Faders downwards or upwards. → You will hear the several volumes of key elements change.
Tutorials and Workflows Using F1 for Stem Deck Control Preparation 1. 2. Route FX Unit 2 to the Stem Deck. Enable FX Unit 2 in the TRAKTOR software. Applying FX SEND On the F1 controller: 1. 2. Hold the SHIFT button. The four Pads with the FX parameter light up. Now press one of these Pads. You now hear the FX of FX Unit 2 applied to the Stem Channel.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Introduction 4 TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference 4.1 Introduction This chapter is your go-to reference for using the F1 to control your Remix Decks in TRAKTOR. For learning how to use the F1 in everyday situations, please see ↑3, Tutorials and Workflows. If you are "diving right in" with this chapter, you still might want to work through the tutorials in ↑3, Tutorials and Workflows. There you will learn the very basics of loading and playing the Remix Decks. 4.1.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Introduction In this Manual, we always refer to the buttons with both mode names. The primary mode is written without brackets, and the secondary mode with brackets. For example, the top-left button in the middle section of the F1 is the SYNC (MASTER) button. The secondary function (Master mode) is always achieved by pressing SHIFT + the Mode button. 4.1.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Introduction You can toggle the four Sample Slot parameters for each Sample Slot on and off using the SHIFT button. The Sample Slot parameters also become visible in the Remix Deck when pressing SHIFT on the controller.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode 4.2 Performance Mode Performance mode is the "default mode" for the KONTROL F1. It is where you navigate the Sample Grid, trigger Samples, mute and stop Sample Slot playback, edit Sample Slot parameters, and adjust the Volume faders and Filter knobs. You will certainly be spending most of your time in Performance mode, so it's a good place to start.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode The F1's Filter knobs are always active and work independently of the mode the F1 happens to be in. ► Rotate the Filter knobs to the left (counterclockwise) for low-pass filtering and to the right for high-pass filtering. Notice that the Filter controls on the software move as you move the F1's Filter knobs.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode The F1's Volume faders behave just like the Filter knobs and control the corresponding Remix Deck faders on the software's user interface. If the Volume faders in the software have been moved so that they don't match the position of the F1's Volume faders, when you move the faders on the F1, the faders on the software will snap to the hardware faders' positions.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode 2. When the Sample is loud enough, release SHIFT and move the Volume fader back up to increase the output level of the Sample Slot. The important thing here is to realize that when moving the Volume faders with SHIFT pressed, you are moving the Sample Cell volume in the opposite direction of the actual gain of the Sample.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode When the Deck's Sync is engaged, the SYNC (MASTER) button (and therefore the corresponding button on the software) will be lit up. When Sync is turned off (either by pressing the button on the F1 or by clicking on the SYNC button on the TRAKTOR GUI) the button will be unlit. ► Press SYNC (MASTER) to toggle the Sync state of the Remix Deck. Master To find out if the Remix Deck controlled by your F1 is TRAKTOR's Master Deck or not, press and hold SHIFT.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode In most cases, you'll want your Samples to be triggered in tight synchronization to the rest of the tracks and probably also the other Samples playing in one or more Remix Decks. Quantize is the way to do this.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode • On the 7-segment Display, you will see the Quantize Values of a quarter-beat (sixteenthnote) to 32 beats; when the Quantize Value is between 1 and 32 beats, only the numbers will show on the display. For lower values, a decimal point appears at the upper left corner of the display followed by a number.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode → The Quantize Value will also be displayed next to the Deck tempo in the software. 4.2.5 CAPTURE (DELETE) Button The CAPTURE (DELETE) button on the F1. Press the CAPTURE (DELETE) button to enter Capture mode, and SHIFT + CAPTURE (DELETE) button to enter Delete mode. For further information, please refer to sections ↑4.4, Capture Mode, and ↑4.5, Delete Mode. 4.2.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode The encoder knob next to the F1's display. Turn the Encoder to Scroll Through the Sample Grid By rotating the encoder knob, you can scroll up and down through the four pages of the Sample Grid, with each click changing the page up or down, depending on which direction you turn the encoder knob. Each time you change pages, the F1's pads will be animated to clearly show the change.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode Toggling Waveform and Grid Views If the current Remix Deck is in Small Size mode on the TRAKTOR software, you can toggle between Waveform View and Grid View by just pressing and releasing the encoder knob once. A Remix Deck in Small Size mode with Waveform View active. A Remix Deck in Small Size mode with Grid View active.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode A Remix Deck in Large Size mode. Double-click the upper border of the Deck in the software to skip through the Viewing modes. ► Press and release the encoder knob once to toggle between Waveform and Grid View in the software (works only when the Remix Deck is in Small Size mode). Saving a Remix Set If you have made changes to the Remix Set loaded into the active Remix Deck and you want to save those changes: ► Hold SHIFT and press the encoder knob.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode Assigning the F1 to a Different Remix Deck / Changing the Focus on the Controller You can change the Remix Deck controlled by the F1 with the encoder knob: ► Hold SHIFT and rotate the encoder knob. Note that this is only possible if there are two or more Decks set to Remix Deck.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode The 7-segment display, and the lower-left quadrant of the F1 indicating that Deck C is the Remix Deck currently controlled by the F1. Note that a pad quadrant will only flash if the corresponding Deck is a Remix Deck. If you've set Deck C to be a Track Deck, for example, then the lower-left quadrant of the Pad Matrix will not light up when you rotate the encoder knob. This is because the F1 can only control Remix Decks.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode er of Sample Slot 2 is halfway down in newly selected Remix Deck, the "full on" position of the physical fader won't represent the actual value in the Remix Deck. In this case, the software controls will snap to the position of their counterparts on the F1 once that you move those.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode With the F1, you can activate reverse Sample playback either as a temporary, gated action (in other words, as long as you press the Sample Cell's pad), or as a "permanent," latched action (in other words, the reverse playback continues even after releasing the Sample Cell's pad). Reversing a Sample Temporarily For a gated (temporary) reversal of Sample playback: 1. 2. 3. 4. Press and hold the REVERSE (COLOR) button.
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode You can hold more than one pad in order to reverse the direction of multiple Samples. 4.2.10 TYPE (PITCH), SIZE (SPEED), BROWSE (MIDI) Buttons These buttons allow you to enter their respective modes, depending on whether you press them alone, or in conjunction with the SHIFT button. They will be discussed later in this chapter under their respective headings (↑4.7, Type Mode and ↑4.8, Pitch Mode, ↑4.9, Size Mode and ↑4.10, Speed Mode, and ↑4.3, Browse Mode).
TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Reference Performance Mode It's a good idea to stick to a single color-coding scheme for the Samples in your Remix Sets. The choice of colors is, of course, entirely up to you. Some users prefer to use colors to indicate basic parts to a track: Bass might be red, drums might be yellow, leads may be blue, and one-shots and crescendos green. Or, you might want to use cooler colors (blues and greens) for lower sounds and warmer colors for higher-pitched sounds.
