[azido]

Love this series, Traktor and the S4 are capable of so much I didn't know!

[DjDenisOfficial]

Every time I finish a tutorial I'm sorry that it ended so quickly even though I watched some that were over an hour long⌛

[gianhart]

That 90s track is better off alone, Alice Deejay - instant recognition haha awesome

As a brand new DJ and with a new Traktor S4.... this is a LOT to digest. Thank you so much for the breakdown. I will be referencing this video A LOT!

[spooforbrains]

I've been using Traktor for many years but I've just sprung for an S4 mk3 and finally made the leap to Traktor Pro 3. This series helped catch me up with a lot of the stuff I have missed out on up til now

[oriolmusicgroup]

I appreciate these lessons so much! What a great resource to the Traktor community. I'm just hoping there will be a part 4.

[kcirenim]

I wish these videos existed years ago! Crazy there’s things I never knew! That map button in cue points to avoid losing a pad to just hold the grid I had no idea!

[Arthur]

i never understands the flux mode untill this video. will definitely use it more in my gigs
thank you for such great series

[djmoxiecali]

Flux-mode baby! Fun stuff! Thanks for sharing:)

[mikesam]

Thank you so much Endo for doing this series! 🤗🤗🤗So needed! I hope you’re able to do more Traktor tutorials in the future! 🙏🙏🙏

[XanderEwald]

Excellent tutorial, can't wait to try all these techniques with my S4 :)

[terrydunlin]

Again another brilliant video I do hope there will be some more especially covering stems and remix decks 👍🏻🙌

[Q-hz]

I mapped Pad 6, 7 and 8 to High kill, Mid kill and Low kill.Its great for EQ swapping 👍🏾

[fraicheness]

Very very good! The copied deck Beat juggling, hiding the Grid cue and Flux Cue jumping tips were my favorites.

[bluntink]

Thank you so much for your video I knew I made the right choice when I brought my s4, I have learned so much more .

[rainbowbearmusic]

The Song is Better off Alone it was a hit in the 90's and I really dance this song in the 90's

[eespecialeventsdj]

Great video Endo!! Awesome as always!

[puresoundstudios]

Traktor is the musician’s DJ ecosystem. Love it so much. And if we get the Izotope stems and elastic beatgrids, there is nothing better. Still…its good for me as it is. Thanks for this Endo.
