4.5 Using Samples in Your Mix
As previously mentioned, the TRAKTOR software provides you with four virtual Decks, each
of which can be operated in several modes: Track Deck mode, Remix Deck mode, and Live
Input mode. The left and the right physical Deck on your S2 controller generally control the
upper Decks A and B in the TRAKTOR software. In combination with the S2, these Decks
should always be in Track Deck mode. Additionally, the S2 provides functionality for con-
trolling the software's lower Decks C and D with the CUE/REMIX SLOTS sections. In combi-
nation with the S2, these Decks should always be in Remix Deck mode. Setting up your S2
controller and the TRAKTOR software with the separate Setup Guide, this is how your soft-
ware will be configured.
To control TRAKTOR's Remix Decks C and D with your S2, you need to switch the CUE/REMIX
SLOTS sections to Remix Deck mode. This is done with the A/B buttons below the REMIX
knob.
The A/B buttons in the REMIX section.
The REMIX knob controls the volume of both Remix Decks together, it's a combined channel.
Once you switch the CUE/REMIX SLOTS sections to Remix Deck mode, the buttons 1 to 4 con-
trol the upper Sample Slots of Remix Decks C and D, instead of the Track Decks' Cue Points.
