This will automatically add a loop at that position in the track.
The Loop size will correspond to the number on the Loop section in TRAKTOR:
The Loop Size Display.
►
To change the size of the Loop, just turn the same LOOP SIZE encoder until the display
reads the number of beats you’d like the Loop to be.
Note that you can adjust the Loop size either before or after you’ve set the Loop! When do-
ing it beforehand, it will affect the next Loops you set.
Setting a Loop Manually
You can also manually set loop start and loop end points. To do this, use the LOOP IN and
LOOP OUT buttons in the Loop section:
The LOOP IN and LOOP OUT buttons.
1. Press the LOOP IN button to set the Loop In Point.
2. Press the LOOP OUT button to set the Loop Out Point.
As soon as you hit the LOOP OUT button, a Loop is set and the track will start looping.
We already introduced the Snap mode in the previous tutorial (see ↑4.2.4, Setting a Cue Point
as Starting Point). This mode also affects the Loop In and Loop Out Points, so that they will
automatically be positioned directly on the beat.
Of course, you can also change the size of manually set Loops via the LOOP SIZE encoder
as described above.
When setting a Loop manually, the Loop size displayed in TRAKTOR’s Loop section might not
always match the actual Loop size.
