Traktor Kontrol X1 FX Tutorials Part 3/4: Loop Synth

Controllerism guru Ean Golden of http://www.djtechtools.com reveals a few advanced performance tricks for getting the most out of the Traktor Kontrol X1, controlling Traktor Pro's effects suite.

In part 3 of 4 in this series, Ean is using three chained FX to turn micro loops into playable synth lines. Using only a loop, any DJ can turn every song into a playable synth using the built in controls on the Traktor Kontrol X1.

So you can not use this stand alone?

I only wanna make some loops and mix around with some songs!

[GermanTechnoBoy]

@SeventHHender Yes, you can and even more!

Once you bought the S4, what btw I did, you don't need anything else anymore ;-)

You can do A LOT (!) with the S4 e.g. the things you've seen in this video, but not only for two but for four decks!

[SeventHHender]

and my question is.... can't you do these things with the S4 too? so why am i supposed to buy the X1?

Omg this is sexy (L)

@teqlab hit shift and move the browse knob it cycles through the track..

@420helladank You can load, sync and press play and skip around but you cannot use it as controls to scratch or pan through like you can with turntables or turntable controllers. There may be a hack or something I'm not familiar with but out of the box the knobs don't move the track like you would hope.

@magermax000 right now on djdeals.com if u buy an x1 you get traktor pro 2 free

[magermax000]

@420helladank right, I bought my x1 with the kontrol s2 just today

[420helladank]

I'm having a bit of trouble undertanding if you can spin with just this. it seems as if its just something to have more control over traktor along with some great affects am I right?
