User Manual

For the FX Unit assignment, press the left or right button to assign this channel to the FX Unit 1
or 2, respectively. The button lights up when the channel is routed to the corresponding FX
Unit. When activating both buttons on the same channel, FX Unit 1 and FX Unit 2 will process
the channel’s signal in series.
For a description of the FX Units on your S4, please refer to section 6.5, The FX Units.
You can activate two additional FX Units in the Preferences of TRAKTOR. Using four FX Units
instead of two implies a few changes in the FX routing scheme. Please refer to section 7.4.3,
Using Four FX Units for more info.
For the crossfader assignment, press SHIFT when using the buttons. This allows you to choose
the crossfader’s side to which the current channel is assigned (and thus, its corresponding
Deck too):
Press SHIFT + FX Assign 1 or 2 to assign the channel to the left or right side of the
crossfader, respectively.
The resulting assignment is shown by the Crossfader Assignment indicator (the little arrows), at
the bottom of each channel (see description at the end of this section).
You can also unlink a channel from the crossfader by pressing SHIFT and the FX Assign
button corresponding to the side it is currently assigned to. This way, that channel won’t be
affected by the crossfader position.
