Traktor Kontrol S4 - magnetic jogwheels or not?
Posted on: 22.11.2010 by Birdie Vogeli
Hi guys,

Just got my S4 today. I absolutely love it and everything works like a charm, except maybe one thing. The jogs work fine, but there's been a lot of talk about the magnetic tech built in to emulate a spinnin platter.

Take a look at about 1:05 in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1EVo8v3OG8 and you'll see the platter spinning backwards slightly after he releases it. I've also seen this in Ean's videos.

Mine doesn't do this. My jogs stop exactly where you expect them to according physics law, like any spinning wheel would. No spinning back.

Have you received your S4s? What's the behavior on your units?

Well it's kind of obvious if you look closely in the video.

my best guess is that they move from the motion of scratching with it. wiki wiki pull wiki wiki push?

Actually I thought the same originally. So you're not alone!!
Doesnt' mean what was I expected was true anyway ^^.

Mine just stops. I believe what your seeing is Shiftee and Ean slightly pushing it just a tad.
