Pads in Loop Mode
Looping
▪ The first row of pads (green) allow you to loop a part of a track. By default the pads are
assigned common loop sizes1/8 of a beat, 1/4 of a beat, 1/2 of a beat, 1 beat.
You can change the loop sizes in TRAKTOR's S8 Preferences:
Preferences>Traktor Kontrol S8>Loop Mode Sizes > Loop
For more information, see the TRAKTOR manual.
▪ If Quantize is activated, TRAKTOR will loop from the next beat.
▪ If Quantize is deactivated, looping starts immediately when you press the pad.
The behavior of the pads changes when you activate FLUX mode. While FLUX is deacti-
vated, the loop will play back until you press that pad again. With FLUX activated, loop-
ing stops as soon as you release the pad.
