Turn each EQ knob clockwise to emphasize the corresponding frequency band, and coun-
ter-clockwise to attenuate this band. At center detent position, the knob does not alter
the signal.
TRAKTOR provides you with various types of EQ, each of them having its own “personality.
“ You can choose the EQ type in Preferences > Mixer > EQ Selection. For more info, please
refer to the TRAKTOR 2 Manual.
7.7.3 FX Assign Buttons
The FX Assign buttons.
The FX Assign buttons (labeled “1” and “2”) below the GAIN/FILTER encoder allow you to as-
sign the channel and its corresponding Deck both to the desired FX Units (normal layer) and to
a particular side of the crossfader (Shift layer).
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  S2,  please  refer  to  section  ↑7.8,  Using  the  FX
Units.
