Great vid answered all my questions thanks!!

[@digitaldjtips]

Awesome, you're welcome!

[@johncaybould3022]

Hi, sorry, but how can you start a cue point by only pressing it once and not needing to hold down the button? Because when I let go if it, the track stops. In the end of this video, you only pressed the que points once, and not having to hold them down. How do you toggle that? Thanks

[@retafuy]

Try the "cup" button !

[@NEWBITOFFICIAL]

Thank you!

[@AtilioEscobar]

Question. Why sometimes on Traktor I try to set a que point, and it will not set it exactly where I want it. For instance it will set it a little behind or a little foward. It really frustrates me at times.

[@digitaldjtips]

You likely have snap/quantise turned on (turn those off while setting cues), also your grid is likely off/analysed wrong, so you'll want to reset the grid markers to start on the "1" beat :)

[@BrentStrathdeePehi]

Hi there hoping you can help - why does Traktor often throw in random cue points (that light up white) and also, even though I have snap turned off, my cue points are no longer reacting quickly and its as if they only want to play on the beat or in time with the tempo. I use a Traktor Z2 mixer. Thanks

[@3millionways]

Hello. I just moved from traktor Pro 1, and many things changed in settings, like the cue here. In the prev. traktor everything was perfect (plug and play) but here some cue points were wrong...even they were perfect in Tp1. And i found out the Snap function might cause awkward situations while settling the proper cue point. Also can u please tell me which version of traktor pro using on this video?

[@digitaldjtips]

Hi :) Honestly it's been a long time, don't remember which version this was

[@MatthewNolan101]

Do you have the key map file you mentioned you would have for download?

[@raphaellopes6219]

I have a problem. Create a Cue point . When I copy the same track to another folder or another computer cue points disappear . Is there any way to get the cue point saved when the audio track is copied to a folder or another computer?

[@andreaspaul8915]

Hi Steve, you said that via the keyboard all eight hotcues could be controlled. How do you control HC 6-8 on the left hand deck, since 6 is aleady HC 1 on the right hand deck? Could never figure that out ...

[@digitaldjtips]

Andreas Paul Yep, it's via mapping. Only cues 1-5 for each deck on the standard mapping :)

[@andreaspaul8915]

***** Thanks !

[@LeonPhythian69]

I have a question, its bugging me know so I hope you can help. Traktor seems to be randomly moving the start Cue point on one deck only. and every Cue I try to insert on that deck (deck two of the S2) it places at the first Cue point no matter where the play head is in the track. its driving me up the wall.

[@digitaldjtips]

Not sure on that one Leon could be a bug, ask on the NI forum it's very active

[@vicentequemasda]

[@Yariclouw]

[@digitaldjtips]

🙌🔥

[@davidhong846]

keyboard working but cant assign hot cues with it (1,2,3,4,5..) . HELPPPP

[@digitaldjtips]

Sorry you're having troubles - Best place to ask such questions is on the Digital DJ Tips Forum (www.digitaldjtips.com/forum), where the whole community can see your issue and hopefully help you out :)

[@MzOrstin]

i dont have the hot cue points on my screen. what do i need to do

[@digitaldjtips]

Under where it says "Active" on each deck, there's a little arrow you can click and that should give you an option for hot cues (make sure 'Cue' is selected on the left side)

[@Retrobom57]

Do i need to change the deck always to internal ? Because i can't set cue points in scratch mode its so annoying to keep switching.

[@alois_deadround]

can someone give me a link for this mapping ? mine is fucked up :(

[@digitaldjtips]

Check on Traktor Bible or DJ TechTools for mappings :)

[@redicoyote]

Where is that??????????

[@rubetubeable]

i love traktor...but why cant you colour code the hotcues? so u can remember what hotcue does what? its easy to forget when there all the same colour....

[@digitaldjtips]

Well not all DJ software has all features, it's true... it's something I imagine will arrive for Traktor at some point though. what else do you like/dislike about this, Rubester?

[@rubetubeable]

Like I say I love the software , pro 3 is out and I’d like to think they are going to input this simple feature. Color code the hotcues please . From a longggggg standing NI User

[@digitaldjtips]

Let's hope it's coming Rubester!

[@alexanderfdj]

I want to change my cue point colors on my pads!!! HelpHELP

[@digitaldjtips]

You can't (last I checked)

[@ggb0y231]

Thank ypuuuuuyyyy

[@digitaldjtips]

No problem!

[@air_rue23]

Omg it seems so outdated compared to serato. Is it just me?

[@digitaldjtips]

Traktor is certainly due for an update, folks have been asking for a Pro 3 version for awhile

[@stevepee]

Digital DJ Tips Any dj Software should be able to analyze tracks properly , something serato cannot do., traktor and virtual dj are miles ahead in terms of this category. ........serato has a faulty beatgrid, no one should compare it to traktor or virtual dj at this point .some of you might be wondering what has beatgrid got to do with this,....if you have beatgrid set for all track, the cues and everything setup, you might not need headphones most times
