User Manual

▪ The jog wheel allows tempo bending (outer rim) and scratching (top plate) of the Remix
Deck including all Sample Slots.
▪ The Hotcue button under each Sample Play button will also function as a Play and Cap-
ture button. As a shortcut, if the Sample is already playing, the Hotcue button will retrig-
ger the Sample.
▪ For any playing Sample, the Hotcue button’s brightness follows the Sample’s rhythm.
▪ It is also possible, to skip through a Sample Slot's Sample Cells by pressing SHIFT + a
Hotcue button; however, this is dependent on whether the Hotcue buttons are set to Re-
mix or Legacy mode in TRAKTOR's preferences. See ↑7.3, S4 Control Options for further
information.
For a more in-depth description of the Remix Deck and its capabilities, please refer to the
TRAKTOR 2 Manual.
4.6 Adding FX
Now that we have seen the basics of playing tracks and Samples on the Decks and mixing
them together, let’s see how to add effects—or “FX” in the TRAKTOR terminology.
TRAKTOR has an extremely powerful effect section. By default, there are two different FX
Units in TRAKTOR, which can be assigned to any of the Decks. These FX Units are directly
mirrored on your S4 above each Deck:
