Why not just use the metronome? Surely it's easier to hear a click more precisely than a bassdrum being mixed into a track with another bassdrum.

Wow I don’t know what this guys doing but 99% of the time if you’re analyzing electronic music tractor gets it just fucking fine. There is no need to zoom in that close and waste your time. All you need to do at most, is reset the very start. Which for some reason it gets a little ahead or behind. Minus a very small percentage of tracks the only thing you’ll need to do is either around the BPM to an even number, as in for some reason it reads 123.02 when it should just be 123 BPM flat.... “It should be noted that sometimes it needs that extra .02 so use ears, kk“ or resetting the very first beat marker.

Painstakingly slow process if you're dealing with 50,000+ tracks. Honestly, if the beats are a bit off during a mix, manually put them into sync, that's what the platters on your controller are for! The more you practice, the quicker you'll get those beats into sync.

what if the beat grid end up half beat off (sneer), can you set a cue and the grid auto lines up, i also have alot of music and i dont think traktor is not going to allow me to play un beat grid music, dont tell me your going to do beat grid editing in live performances hehehe, it suck i cannot set a cue when no grid lines are aligned on it, i have to go through the process of going to the grid and delete what it auto processed to allow me to set a cue and new grid the developer should allow the dj to set the cue first before the auto feature starts. make cues master in editing, not the other way around, just to set a cue that the software made a wrong grid mark, i have to go to the grid and adjust, not all dj come prepared with the music in that event, someone can give you a music that you can instantly mix and not go through that auto grid just to set a cue point. developer,. make cues master edit, the grid auto grid should follow the set cue point, dj knows better than you software, it can auto grid after the first que has been set or stored, make no sense when the auto grid make a half beat of grid and you have to manually set it lol

All mixing software has problems with their beat algorithms. It's not really the fault of the software, but the way some tracks are made. Tracks with double kicks for example can through a beat grid way off. But if you've been DJing with decks, then getting the beats into sync manually will be a piece of cake for you.

For the same reason we chose cars over a horse and cart. Technology has continually revolutionised music. Computers democratised and fed into the punk ethic of anyone should be able to make music without having to have the privilege of being able to spend ridiculous amounts of hours mastering some very basic skills in order to express themselves. Computers allow anybody to have an entire orchestra at their finger tips. Why should Djing be any different, its the essence of dance music culture - DIY

Great video. For me personally, I DJ at such a variety of parties I could not possibly attempt to go though this for every track (of which I carry approx 40,000). I always make sure my tracks are analysed as a minimum because previous Traktor versions have crashed when analysing tracks (particularly ones with periods of silence in them!) so I am ultra paranoid about that. I find that although Traktor will sometimes place the markers slightly before / after the beat, the BPM calculation itself is usually spot on. So the grid sometimes needs to be shifted but I have never needed to 'stretch' it. (not for electronic or produced music anyway). If anybody started with Vinyl or even CDJs, you will be used to 'nudging' tracks into sync. That's all I do with Traktor. If you press the sync button it will match the BPM, but if you hear in the headphones that the cued track is a tiny bit ahead / behind, then you can just knock the sync button off and use the jog wheel to bring things into sync the old fashioned way. Note, after activating 'sync' on a deck the BPM will be adjusted. If you turn off sync, the BPM will revert back to what it was. To turn sync off and keep the 'matched' BPM you need to play the track first then turn sync off : )
@joaofezasvital85218 жыл бұрын
Problem is I don't have jog wheels (I use a midi controlee with only knobs and faders to control the decks and fxs and an external mixer to do the rest) I find it really hard to keep tracks in sync with buttons (I also have cdjs but they don't read usb and I'm tired of burning cds.. Guess I'll sell the whole mixer/midi controller/ audio2dj soundcard set up and just buy a pioneer ddj sb or something like that
