Traktor Pro - S4 - Fast Beatgridding with Keyboard Only
Posted on: 20.08.2012 by Kristie Grosskurth
What's up guys. I was inspired by Scamo and DJTT to try to create a custom mapping to speed up everyones least favorite Traktor activity: beatgridding.

Here is a link to the mapping:

I'm uploading a youtube video explain how to load and use the mapping but I'll go over it here as well.

Be sure to turn on snap to grid mouse control in the transport section. Load the TSI using the ADD button in the controller management section. Be sure to turn off your current keyboard map and, not surprisingly, turn it back on when you're going back to mixing.

Once you have a track loaded use the mouse to navigate to the first downbeat. Click M to set a beatgrid marker. You can use X/C to jump forward or back in the track, useful for songs with ambient intros. Click and hold N to cue play to verify it's the right spot. If it isn't click shift-M to delete the market and find another spot. After you've verified the track is gridded correctly click B to lock the grid. Finally press V to load the next track on your playlist.

This mapping is specifically for EDM tracks that have no drift during playback. Once you get the hang of the mapping you can really churn through the playlists quickly. Let me know what you believe and thanks for checking out this mapping!
