When a TRAKTOR DJ deck is in the Half-Sync state. The SYNC symbol of the TRAKTOR DJ
deck will be lit red, and the corresponding S2 SYNC button will flash orange.
To reset the SYNC function:
►
Press the S2's flashing SYNC button.
→
You will immediately hear the tracks align again. The S2's SYNC button is no longer
flashing orange, and TRAKTOR DJ's SYNC is lit green.
BeatGrid Edit Mode
Pressing SHIFT + SYNC engages TRAKTOR DJ's BeatGrid Edit Mode on a corresponding Deck.
Whilst in this mode, you can manually adjust a track's Beatgrid via:
▪ Moving the jog wheel to adjust the waveform/fixing the grid's phase.
▪ HotCues 1-4 can be used to select the correct downbeat you wish to use.
▪ Rotating the Loop MOVE encoders will scan through a track in increments of 4 beats.
5.2.4 FLUX Buttons
Pressing either of the FLUX buttons located above the TEMPO faders will engage TRAK-
TOR DJ's Flux Mode on the Deck. Flux mode lets you jump to cue points and loops without
losing the overall phrasing of your tracks.
5.2.5 HotCue Buttons
The HotCue buttons are located as part of the CUE/REMIX SLOTS area on both of the S2's
transport sections. Each CUE/REMIX SLOTS area contains 4 HotCue buttons (1-4). These RGB
backlit buttons directly reflect TRAKTOR's cue button coloring:
▪ Blue: Cue point
▪ Green: Loop
▪ Yellow: Load
▪ Orange: Fade In/Out
▪ White: Grid Marker
