5.1.2 Touch Strip
By default the X1's Seek behavior is set to Seek on Stop, which means that, by touching the
Touch Strip, you are able to seek through a track only when a track is stopped. Seek Always is
the other option available to you and means that even when a track is playing, dragging the
Touch Strip will seek through the track.
This can be a preferred setting for those who wish to use Scratch Control.
Split Mode: By default, TRAKTOR's preferences are set to Adjustable, which means you can
switch between Split Mode and Single Deck assign mode. Selecting the Fixed option here
means that the Touch Strip area will only operate in Split Mode.
Assignment: By default this is set to Enabled which means that you can use the Touch Strip to
assign a Loop, or effect to the Touch Strip area. Selecting Disabled means that you are unable
to perform Touch Strip assignment for either loops or effects.
Bend Sensitivity: By default, this is set to 50% and refers to the sensitivity the Touch Strip will
respond to motion in performing pitchbend on a track. Increasing this percentage therefore
means that the Touch Strip will respond more sensitively to motion, and vice a versa.
Seek Sensitivity: By default, this is set to 50% and refers to the sensitivity the Touch Strip will
respond to motion whilst performing the seek function on a track. Increasing this percentage
therefore means that the Touch Strip will respond more sensitively to motion, and vice a versa.
The Invert Bend direction checkbox provides you with the opportunity to change the direction
of control within the Touch Strip. Thus, for example, moving the Touch Strip to the left will
slow down a track, and likewise to the right will speed it up.
Checking this Invert Bend Direction option might be the preferred intuitive option for some
DJs. It is recommended that you take some time to experiment with which setup is best
suited for your style.
Checking the Invert Seek direction checkbox will ensure that the Touch Strip reverses it's seek
direction when touched. Thus, for example, moving the Touch Strip to the left will seek for-
wards through the track, and likewise to the right will seek backwards through the track.
