S2 users and the Traktor loop recorder Posted on: 28.05.2013 by Denna Bracamonte Being the student that I am, I didn't have enough quiche to invest in a Kontrol S4 for myself; had to go for the S2. One of the things I really want to leverage in Traktor is the loop recorder section, but the S2 has no hardware dedication for it. My question for other DJs using the S2 is:What are some of the best controllers (NI or otherwise) that you've found for effectively controlling the loop recorder in Traktor? | |

| Gaynell Rydberg 07.06.2013 | Denon MC3000 I believe? I could never figure out how to use it. And I'm not a remix deck guy. |
| Sheldon Dieckmann 06.06.2013 | On the s4 there is only 4 buttons to control the loop recorder (I believe..) so you could just map those 4 functions to your keyboard, and save yourself a bit of money. The loop recorder's quantise feature means you don't need the most responsive/playable buttons, so it could work nicely. The only problem I see with doing this way is not having a dry/wet, you could possibly re-map a knob on the S2 you don't use often, or set up a modifier? |
| Kellie Myrum 29.05.2013 | I use MIDIfighter Spectra to control Loop Recorder in my setup. Got d/w, size, rec, play, delete, undo and eight beat position display. For just Loop Rec control any simple controller can use... It's just which can fit to your budget. |
| Kecia Wnukowski 29.05.2013 | I don't have a s2 but here's my take: the loop recorder doesn't have that many functions and all are mappable (I thiiiiiink...) so any controller with a few buttons and a fader or knob would accommodate those. And if you don't want to invest in another controller but you do have a smart phone, use it with touch osc (cost a few euros/$) and that will be great. |
