| Marshall Aby 08.11.2010 | @kdelca It's setting the automatic beatgrid. You can choose to have the beatgrid not be one of your cuepoints in the preferences. You can adjust the grids and cues and delete them from the GUI, or probably from the controller I should imagine. Anyway, have a look at the manual. It explains how your product works |
| Ethelyn Biley 08.11.2010 | im in the UK and ordered this online through a music shop in Surrey http://www.andertons.co.uk/ i ordered about mid-early october and i believe i managed to get one of their last pre orders. I usually use dolphin music but all of there first and second batches had already sold out in october anticipation is killing me!!! |
| Archie Ynoa 08.11.2010 | Can someone please HELP!!! When i load a track into my S4 (either deck) its automatically setting a cue point in #1 and i cant delete it???? i only get 3 cue points |

| Ethelyn Biley 08.11.2010 | im new to posting on here but have been viewing for a while now, some really cool tips etc getting dished out so thanks !! my s4 is shipping tomorrow according to the latest 'track my order' status (i have only checked it 19 times a day since it was ordered) !! ill get some pics/vids up once im rolling and no doubt be in need of some advice |
| Ruby Jaeb 07.11.2010 | Well I got my S4 on friday. I rang up digital village and they said it was in my local store and had been since the monday but had forgot to ring me it would seem :-/ Still I have it now and it is fucking incredible xD |
| Lorita Leazenby 06.11.2010 | That was it, cue volume had to be all the way up in the software. |
| Marshall Aby 06.11.2010 | You can adjust the cue volume on the GUI independent of the hardware cue. Adjust this until there is no volume difference. |
| Lorita Leazenby 06.11.2010 | I'm loving my S4, and everything is working perfectly, didn't even have to calibrate the jogs out of the box (did it anyway though.) However I'm having a tiny little problem with the headphone cue. Whenever I turn the mix knob from cue to mix there's a huge drop in volume on the headphone, so I have to turn up the HP volume. Then when I go back to cue, the volume goed back up, and have to turn down the HP volume. Now this isn't a lot of work, but it gets very annoying. Could it be a problem with one of the settings? |
| Kristian Buneta 06.11.2010 | Okay. So I've been playing around. Last question I swear. Where is the location on the default S4.tsi layout so I can back it up. I want to delete it or rename it so I can map certain functions to be more effective. |
| nayit ruiz jaramillo 05.11.2010 | Should do. It saves them into the actual file if its supported. |
| Kristian Buneta 05.11.2010 | Alright. So I have one more question. Will traktor automagically save my cue points? I was working on my favorite track, Tik Tok, and it didn't save them for some odd reason. |
| nayit ruiz jaramillo 05.11.2010 | LOL that video made me piss myself with laughter WTF !!! Like really WTF... hilarious, i cant turn it off !!!!!!!!!!! |

You might find it best to set the software knob to about 4oclock (just backed off) and push the hardware knob as the headphone out can distort if pushed in the software. Also the crackle could be the hardware knob if it feels tight. It will loosen and the crackle will go, mine did. |
| Kristian Buneta 05.11.2010 | I also believe the encoder on the headphone or cue volume on my S4 is broken. When I turn it it does not show changes in the Traktor S4 GUI. Can anybody confirm this? |

Oh and this crackling sound when using the headphones jack on the S4 is annoying as hell. I'm almost positive it's the software because when I said the affinity to real-time priority it is a very consistent, almost rhythmic crackling. Always at the same intervol. Does anybody else have this problem? |

| Janina Droze 04.11.2010 | My pre-order with musiciansfriend was supposed to ship 2 days ago. Now its December 4th. This, after 2(!) calls verifying stock. Un-pleased. Nearest GC with stock is ~300miles from me, and I don't drive :\ |

| Irvin Cee 04.11.2010 | What is the S4's pitchfader range ? for example if you set it to -/+ 4 %, what is the smallest variation ? and at 8 % ? thanks ! |
