Optimized User Interface and TruWave
With an easy on the eye interface, including Essential View and the new TruWave hi-res colored waveforms, TRAKTOR software is now easier to use than ever.

- The overview of the whole track ("stripe") clearly displays the track's arrangement with full detail
- New layouts, including Essential View for maximum ease-of-use when using TRAKTOR with external mixer and controller(s)

Sample Decks
With the innovative Sample Decks containing four slots each, you can enter the world of live remixing and editing in ways unimaginable before.

- Grab and layer your own loops or use the included loop content. Create one-shot samples or use the included DJ Craze scratch sounds
- Grab loops live out of a running deck, store your favorites in the loop library, and develop your own arsenal of beats and sounds
- Layer up loops in perfect sync with the decks
- PRO versions only: Tweak the volume and filter for each Sample Deck slot separately
- PRO versions only: 2 different sizes for the Sample Decks; each of the 4 decks can be switched from track deck to Sample Deck and vice versa, on the fly

New Effects
TRAKTOR PRO 2 adds 4 stunning, much-requested new effects, taking the total to 32, all syncing to track or master tempo.

- Tape Delay, Ramp Delay, Bouncer and Auto Bouncer join the arsenal of professional DJ effects, taking the potential for sound mangling to the extreme
- With a multi-channel audio interface such as the TRAKTOR AUDIO 10 you can now use TRAKTOR effects as an independent send / receive effects unit

Included Loop Content
TRAKTOR 2 software includes amazing loops and sounds from in-demand sound providers for use with the new Sample Decks.

- 40 original loops and 10 full tracks drawn from Loopmasters' new DJ Mixtools series, plus additional scratch sounds by DMC Champ DJ Craze
- Drum, bass, percussion and synth loop in dubstep, minimal, house, techno and trance styles
Grab loops from any playing track in seconds, and save them in the loop library

Loop Recorder
With the brand-new Loop Recorder in the PRO 2 versions of TRAKTOR, you can record live loops from any channel (single or multiple), the live input feeds, or the master output.

- Trigger the recording using a foot pedal, a DJ controller such as TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 or a keyboard hot key
- Overdub on top of the running loop in real time, creating additional layers and heightening dramatic FX buildups and peaks
- Works like a 5th deck. You can transfer the layered loop into a Sample Deck slot instantly, freeing up the Loop Recorder for further use
