Traktor Cue Point Strategies: Reference and Performance

[@djskizzle1]

thanks for the videos! getting to know my mk2 x1. much respect!

[@nickynarco2020]

Another awesome video brother, thanks for all the easy to understand helpful tips and tricks.

[@OtherJesus]

After I've set this up, how do I lock them? It seems that even after I've hit the "lock" on my track, that I'm still accidentally setting cue points or overwriting cue points. Thanks for the tips.

[@SoniaAnastasiaaa]

how do you create cue points that are not beat gridded to the track? I turned the quantize and snap mode off but that didn't work. I want more creative freedom

[@LaraPietersMusic]

love the midi fighter uno in the background on the shelf :)

[@bskdopeboy]

This is for pre-arranged sets and shit; not for everything you have. 90% of the time I mix on the fly, but for a few tracks I have with short intros/outros, unusual arrangements, etc, it's awesome to be able to put markers and cue points so I don't fuck up in front of a crowd.

[@JerryGreenhouse]

Your BACK!

[@MarkobieWan]

Awesome! Really gave me some ideas!

[@armandolarios9382]

Great job!

[@JamesMesidor]

you have any videos on how to roll back to a older version of traktor?

[@Kwipper]

This is my method for organizing cuepoints in songs. (beatgrid is NOT stored as a hot cue) 1.) Load Marker at the first beat of the song 2.) First drop of the main song 3.) End of 1st Breakdown 4.) End of 2nd Breakdown 8.) Last beat at the end of the track Make sure you set up a "Beats to Cue" in your Deck Header section.

[@ATOnetwork]

Is that a real midi fighter uno in the back!? AMAZING haha

[@DjGreWu]

In what version of traktor we have those colored cue/hot points?

[@jal187]

The single Dislike must be a Virtual DJ user...

[@ArseneGray]

Can you do this video also for Serato DJ?

[@abhij33t]

what is the name of the track which he plays with push the feeling on(Sax-A-Pella) Thanks

[@bboymac84]

Great video!

[@Proscooterer]

Great videos im studying all these techniques on dj tech tools for when i finally have enough money to buy my midi fighter :D lol looking at all the ones in the background are soo torturous i want one hella bad

[@VladWooD]

What is the best mixing program ? Why ?

[@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?

[@faroukr]

Very good video, thank you!

[@256k_]

perhaps someone could clarify something, in another ean video he talks about manual beatgridding and how you gotta find a perfect hit to place your beatgrid cue point on it.... but more often than not, it's not in the beginning of that track. so is there a way that after i fixed my beatgrid i could remove that beatgrid cue point? or move it to the begining? the reason why im asking is because i want to use the phrase counter so i can read how many phrases (i usually set it to 8 bars from settings) are in between each cue point and having the beatgrid cue point kinda messes that up... some clarification would be great thanks :D

[@andrescalderon119]

Question. This is nice tutorial but can you teach how can we mix when to mix a song with vocals?

[@jlabeats]

thank you! to many more magical moments =) cheers!

[@JamesMesidor]

Awesome tips!!

[@feroz77777]

Good advice!

[@CanadianRoulette1]

Great video, but how do you upload or download songs into Traktor Pro without running into a "file cannot be played" message do to copyright blocks? If anyone could help out that'd be great.

[@SanialDropB]

The issue is the file's permissions (normally) make sure that Traktor can access the file :)

[@CanadianRoulette1]

I figured it out, I had to download Quicktime so the songs could be shared with third party programs. Thanks though.

[@SsgtHolland]

It's "I could be the one" by Avicii vs Nicky Romero

[@TheAdtrix]

Let's say I have a track on A deck with fade-out point, mixing in track on B with fade-in point as soon as A reaches its auto point. BUT, when I have "more than one" fade-outs on track A, and A progresses to the next fade-out, it messes up the B and make it jump back to its first fade-in. Any way to prevent that?

[@djd4586]

Traktor does all the thinking for you. i use VDJ and traktor

[@TechnoMusicFreaks]

Nice Video!

[@koycdjartage2571]

Is there a file that holds all my cue points to play from another computer ?

[@fightfairfightfair]

Your cue points and beat grids are stored in your $COLLECTION.NML file. You can right-click your collection and export it to a USB stick (check the 'copy tracks to destination' box), then import it on another PC. I do this all the time.

[@DJRAFI85]

can anybody explain how to setup cue point between beatgrids lines ?thx for answer

[@EarnestMazique]

Dj Rafi Turn off the snap function in the mixer section. You'll see an S and a Q under your main volume. If the S is lit up, that's what is keeping you from placing your points where you want. GLHF.

[@DJRAFI85]

Earnest Mazique thanks for the answer mate! i was confused after upgrading how to change this lol but now is fixed thanks lots again!

[@christophersebring9401]

Just helped out my early Sunday mix!!! Thank you!!!

[@zoommair]

Traktor Pro 2, because Awesome.

[@AriSanX]

oh ean u jokester, they actually made the midid fighter uno!!! lolol

[@freedinner886]

LOVE YOU BRO

[@djlopez4995]

can you do this with virual dj

[@MusicMighty]

get traktor virtual dj is if you just want to make simple transitions.

[@J-FEN]

Traktor pro 2 and above

[@torsion2]

on the area he is talking about at 34 seconds etc, how has he turned off the white markers that traktor sets every 32 bars? I have no need for it.

[@fightfairfightfair]

Those are minute markers. You can turn them off in Traktor's settings.

[@subigyatuladhar2274]

thumbs up can anyone help me where i can find tracks for my mix :P

[@Ryan-cn7yl]

I use the website 8tracks . com. U can pick any genre of music and users have compiled custom playlists for that type. I just leave it playing while im doing nothing important and whenever I hear a good song I look up the artist

[@subigyatuladhar2274]

thx man

[@nuutx]

i love you so much

[@WuRealhero]

nice

[@Daniel_de_lux]

only a few hot cues.. seems that u leave the music play 4 a long time in ur mixes..

[@officialkalinox]

I am the 7,000 one ! Bang!

[@ArmorKingEmir]

I agree with what you said, in fact i have a controller myself, but the thing is that 90% of the digital "djs" do not use it as you described. right now sync is not being used to its advantage, it is being abused. the art , the skill, the soul of mixing is vanishing cuz of those things and people who abuse em

[@dnolan2000]

I like your hair.

[@OfficialAceDaBass]

Nice,the only prob is that I have a shitload music.I'm not gonna set cue's and grid to all of them.

[@RedstoneProduction]

Traktor / Serato. Google is your friend

[@AndreasHeck]

shit i was about to say that

[@valdelu]

What´s wrong with his back?!

[@SeanFlotre]

What the what? Your hair!

[@martinabr9551]

[@faroukr]
