6.1 Restore Default
This button recalls all factory default settings for the TRAKTOR KONTROL S8 and lets you
choose its basic deck configuration via the Setup Wizard.
6.2 Touch Controls
A number of controls are sensitive to touch. TRAKTOR lets you activate touch functions, which
will save you the dedicated press of a button for a few features.
▪ Auto Open Browser on Touch: If activated, touching a BROWSE knob will open the Brows-
er, after letting go, it will automatically close. If deactivated, press the BROWSE knob to
open the Browser.
▪ Auto Open FX Panels on Touch: If activated, touching the FX knobs overlays an FX panel
with information about the knobs' parameter values, as well as the adjacent FX buttons'
functions. If deactivated, you can still control the parameters, but no panel is opened.
▪ Auto Open Performance Control on Touch: If activated, touching the Performance knobs
below the display overlays a Performance panel with information about the knobs' parame-
ter values, as well as the adjacent Performance buttons' functions. If deactivated, you can
still control the parameters, but no panel is opened.
If FX Units 3 and 4 are activated, touching the Performance knobs opens the FX panel
for FX Unit 3 and 4, instead of the Performance panel. The Auto Open Performance
Control on Touch setting activates the touch sensing of these knobs, no matter which
function they control.
6.3 Touchstrip
Touch technology relies on the electrical properties of your skin, which differ from one person
to another. The default value will work for most people under most conditions. However, if you
feel the touch strips should react more sensitively, or start registering too soon, you can adjust
the behavior here.
