5.1.1 Browsing & Loading Tracks
Follow the below tutorial to quickly familiarize yourself with how to use the S4 to browse
through your music collection in TRAKTOR DJ and load tracks accordingly.
1. Press the BROWSE encoder to reveal the music file tree in TRAKTOR DJ.
Here your music will be categorized into either Songs, Playlists, Artists, Albums, or Genre.
2. Press the BROWSE encoder again on Songs to enter into your song collection.
3. Turn the BROWSE encoder to scroll through your track collection.
4. Press the LOAD button on the chosen S4 deck to load the track.
The viewing mode in TRAKTOR DJ immediately switches back to Deck view mode. The
LOAD button on the S4's deck will now become backlit orange to indicate that the track is
loaded.
5. Trigger playback on the track.
6. Press the BROWSE encoder again (or press the LOAD buttons) to locate another track in
TRAKTOR DJ.
7. Turn the BROWSE encoder again to locate another track.
8. On your selected track, press the BROWSE encoder again.
TRAKTOR DJ's Recommended Tracks will be revealed. The app makes these recommen-
dations on the basis of Key/BPM. If you wish to navigate your way back up a tree node at
any point, you can do so by pressing a SHIFT button on the S4 whilst turning the
BROWSE encoder. To navigate back up to the group level (Songs, Playlists, and Artists)
hold SHIFT + press the BROWSE encoder.
9. Load your next track into the available S4 deck. You'll notice that the LOAD button on the
track already playing is flashing orange.
Paying attention to a Deck's flashing LOAD button will help avoid loading a new track on
top of an already playing track.
