VDJ to Traktor, making the journey.

Hello Dave 🙂
Apparently (so I have just read); all you have to do is;
‘Turn On Snap On Master Panel’

The Solution can be found here:
Snap To Loops

Ooo oo ooo im a traktor nerd… See the s and q buttons besides the big master knob in the top bar… If you click the s that is snap the q is quantise which if you want to do some cue juggling will drop song perfect on beat for live mashups :),

Either way what emma posted is still correct just I know when changing over to traktor 2 I felt like they missed out these controls till I click them on my controller and seen them light up (I had all these mapped in traktor 1)

If you have any more traktor based question feel free to ask :), Ive tried out vdj in the past and always thought it would be a hard jump since traktor does stuff a little different

Haha well now you know, with traktor 1 they were all labled there were 6 buttons, now to clean up traktor they just put letters which was a bit less obvious.

I am So Pleased you have More Experience in this matter my Friend :);
I moved from Traktor DJ Studio 3.1 to Traktor Pro 2; and have it on my Laptop; but have yet to use it 😳

Having learnt on VDJ, I thought traktor would to it automatically..

Didnt see your post till going back to it :), the reason traktor let us select it ourselves is because when we set cue points we might be looking to get a precise word or noise… With snap turned on we just jump to the closest beat, so for cue point setting turning it off may help you 🙂

Im the same mine stays on most of the time, quantise goes on and off, if you want to drum a cue point fast or play a beat using a few you can only play to the tempo of the song with quantise on so with it off you can mess around a bit more freely.

And as for the snap, when setting cue points is the only time I may turn it off since I can then zoom right in on a noise and get it perfect, but this goes straight back on for looping 🙂 means i dont have to have amazing quick reflexes.
