If you didn't learn aligning Decks on turntables, this behavior may not make sense to you. In-
stead, looking at the waveform, you think in terms of moving the playhead position within the
track. Also, you want Tempo Bending to be consistent with Seeking:
Swipe to the right to move the playhead ahead
Swipe to the left to move the playhead back.
Inversed Tempo Bending Direction
To achieve this, uncheck the Invert option in: Preferences> Traktor Kontrol S8>Touch-
strip>Bend Sensitivity.
Sensitivity
S8 comes with a Sensitivity setting which should accommodate most users in most situations.
You might, however, find that the touch strip doesn't react immediate enough to your input or
just the opposite, it may recognize input where there was none intended.
You can adjust the Touchstrip's Bend Sensitivity and Scratch Sensitivity separately in: Prefer-
ences> Traktor Kontrol S8>Touchstrip.
