8.3 Other Settings of Interest
This section describes a few other settings of the TRAKTOR Preferences that affect the way
your TRAKTOR KONTROL S2 reacts.
8.3.1 Switching the Deck Flavors
Switching Deck Flavors is not advised for when using TRAKTOR in combination with the S2
controller. Decks A/B in Track Deck mode, and Decks C/D in Remix Deck mode is the only rea-
sonable setting for controlling TRAKTOR with the S2 controller.
As explained in section ↑6.1.1, Decks, you can control Decks C and D via your TRAK-
TOR KONTROL S2. However, Decks C and D have to be set to Remix Decks. To do this, go to
Preferences > Decks Layout > Deck Flavor.
The Deck Flavor section allows you to select another flavor for each of the lower Decks C and D.
In this section, each menu represents a Deck and is labeled accordingly.
