Yeah, "endless possibilities!" Absolutely! I've had the S8 for 3 years now, and while I know how to use the remix decks, there are still things about the S8 that I'm just "discovering" that are very useful! For me the screens are extremely useful! I would not have gotten into the remix decks (F1) if there had not been any screens! Thanks for a great tutorial! It has been very helpful!!!
Thank you for sharing this information. Just bought this but been using Traktor for some time now and these three videos got me so hyped to see what I’m gonna be able to do. Small steps at first, but you’re right, endless options! So stoked.
WOW this mixer is on point I've had it 1-1/2 year it's by far the best mixer I have ever had. 3 Numark 1raido shack 3rane mixers and just before this one and it as well blew me away Z2 ...
Great vid as always Liam! I had to watch the end a dozen times as I couldn't get my sample decks to record more than 4 beats. In your vid you set your capture loop time to 16, but your sample ended up being only 4 beats as well, so I figured the loop time needs to be set in the SOURCE DECK, in this case DECK B, and not the remix deck, then it worked like a charm. I also found that you can overwrite existing remix pads with new audio on the fly (from DECK B in this case again) by holding capture and a pressing a remix pad.
Thank you So Much ! You had to make me choose that controller instead of any others : that remix deck sounds to me not only interesting to have but excellent to play with, on or not on the fly !
Thank you!!! Is it possible to set Start cue point (white one) via controller (without using laptop) if deleted with shift+first? Or is it possible to change cue type from blue to white?
I can't seem to find a single video or site or in the manual how to delete a sample from a remix cell slot. Either in the Traktor Pro 3 software, or on the s8 controller. Can anybody please help?
no - he created a remix set. that means that he first added individual sounds and plays all the samples individually. no need for other software apart from traktor pro you could also play stems with this. the difference is that with a stem file you can only control that tracks elements and they are glued together. so to speak each element is the entire length of the track and you can't loop individual elements only everything together
Here is one question nobody wants to answer, an u change sample type with this controller from loop to one shot using only the s8, now here's why this product is a waste of money, U can do everything u can with the f1 that u can with this plus more maybe if traktor layout was better u would not feel the need to get remix decks on seperate displays, these people that are clearly biased giving reviews are meant to be pros I know point blank aren't giving reviews on this aint having a go at u guys other people tho are not stating out this piece of gear is a waste of time if only ni concentrated better on their software layout u wouldn't shouldn't need this

This to me is the soul of the whole S8/Traktor rig. Nice demo.
damn this guy has some chops, great tutorial

Thank you for taking the time to post this video.
Great Job!!
Great videos guys. This made me wanna get one now even more than before.

i think if you have a selected say 16 beat loop and tell it to capture 4 it will. but if the loop is only 3 you cant capture 32 if you get me
I learnt something new, the proper way to reset the beatgrid on the fly using tap!!
fantastic videos and tutorial traktor S8 :)
Thank you So Much ! You had to make me choose that controller instead of any others : that remix deck sounds to me not only interesting to have but excellent to play with, on or not on the fly !
Excellent job Liam. Thank you
How can you set it to make one shot hits off the pads like you did for the snare and kick?
I like the capture, I haven't played with that function yet, I assume it is automatically saved to the remix set you have loaded?
djthumpa81 You can choose to save it as part of the remix deck yes!
Excellent video!
thank you.
Still don't understand
Thank you!!! Is it possible to set Start cue point (white one) via controller (without using laptop) if deleted with shift+first? Or is it possible to change cue type from blue to white?
is anyone actually using remix deck playing live? i mean thats a lot of buttons to think about.
Carl cox was using it so
yes bud .. a lot to handle
Yes, I have done it live, but prefer to have samples preset as a remix set. It is easy to grab samples live to add to a remix set
With the right controller it feels really natural. I have 2 F1s and it’s amaze balls.
Remix Decks are amazing!!! No more AbletonLive messing my mixes!!!
Didn't get it completely. You can break down all Tracks or only Remix Tracks wich support Stems ? thx.
fantastico
Can you monitor each remix deck cell through headphones?
To browse the samples press Remix and turn Loop recorder.
Can you use as step sequencer ?
Hi, you do not explain how to delete the loop on the S8?....What if you accidentally capture a wrong part of the track 🤷🏻♂️
how do you get the samples in your remix deck . if I load samples in it it doesn't match ?
I can't seem to find a single video or site or in the manual how to delete a sample from a remix cell slot. Either in the Traktor Pro 3 software, or on the s8 controller. Can anybody please help?
For the separation of the track elements did you create a Stem track?
no - he created a remix set. that means that he first added individual sounds and plays all the samples individually. no need for other software apart from traktor pro
you could also play stems with this. the difference is that with a stem file you can only control that tracks elements and they are glued together. so to speak each element is the entire length of the track and you can't loop individual elements only everything together
My deck A Bpm won't move on the S8 hardware but on Traktor pro software is there any way of changing that if u know
how do I delete a sample off the remix deck on the s8?
on mac press alt + CMD + click on the sample you want to delete
hi. i didnt udnersntad. are you using STEM files in video or usual mp3?
neither, it's a traktor format called remix deck, you can buy a whole title in this format in beatport or make your own from different parts of songs
So it is possible to use simple samples for example or they have to be in a format which you have to buy from beatport as you are saying or NI ?
Definitely selling my xone:92 in exchange of this beast!
NOOOO dont sell the Xone. Buy some d2´s and f1´s :(
Can someone tell me the track id of the first 30 seconds in this video?
;-) 3. The Raw L (Original Mix) - Cera Alba - 2014 - Take Control EP [GRU034]
One Question: how can i delete a sample cell in the remix deck? (with the F1 it is shift capture)
on mac press alt + CMD + click on the sample you want to delete
dont understand why the fucking loops don't continue looping by me just pressing the pad alone as he does-_________-
The Music is a bit to loud to understand you 100% as german 😅
