Native Instruments Traktor 3 Tutorial DVD

If you want to understand the TRAKTOR 3 user interface better and follow techniques directly in the software, this DVD offers a video workshop lasting several hours. The Native Instruments Traktor 3 Tutorial DVD covers the software in the context of live DJing and combines feature explanations with tips from DJs such as Chris Liebing and Kabuki.

The eight chapters take you through decks and the mixer, looping, effects and tempo synchronisation. Other key topics include MIDI functions and controller integration, beatgrids and advanced mixing techniques. This lets you learn about individual functions as well as follow how they work together in a DJ set.

One chapter focuses on using TRAKTOR 3 in a live setting. The DVD also includes excerpts from live performances by well-known TRAKTOR DJs. According to the product description, the video workshops contain more than four hours of material.

Tutorial tracks are included so you can follow the examples. The music tracks for the exercises are provided on the DVD with cue point information, allowing you to follow the demonstrated workflows in TRAKTOR 3. A PDF guide to the track database also explains how you can organise playlists and extensive music collections and prepare tracks for use in a club.

The DVD is suitable for TRAKTOR 3 users who want to focus on the software’s features, mixing techniques and preparing their track collection. The video workshop, practice tracks and PDF guide cover both working with the software and using it live.
