User Manual

Note that you can also stop the playback (by pressing the PLAY button) before you seek an in-
teresting point with the Jog Wheel. Once you have found the point, you can release the Jog
Wheel—since the Deck is not playing, you won’t lose the point. When a downbeat arrives in the
other track, press PLAY again on the left Deck.
Stripe Navigation
When a track is playing in a TRAKTOR DJ Deck, you have the opportunity to engage Stripe
Navigation. This function allows you to visually preview any point in the track without altering
the current playback, and at your choosing jump to that position of the track. Activate Stripe
Navigation via:
►
Press SHIFT + press and rotate the Jog Wheel on the currently playing Deck.
→
You can now navigate through the track to visually preview.
To jump to a desired position on the track:
►
Press the CUE button.
To exit from Stripe Navigation view:
►
Press the MOVE encoder.
Mixing Manually
The S4 allows you to control TRAKTOR DJ's decks in a similar fashion to conventional turnta-
bles. With the SYNC mode off, you can nudge the Jog Wheels to bend the tempo. This may be
the preferred DJ workflow for those who like to utilize manual beat matching.
With SYNC mode and KEYLOCK off, you can Pitch Bend.
With FLUX mode engaged, try experimenting with scratching the Jog Wheels, and triggering
HotCue buttons.
