into the mix in sync with Deck A.
Note that you should always adjust the tempo of the track that is not audible to the audience!
4.2.4 Setting a Cue Point as Starting Point
You will
probably want to have more control over which particular part of the track you mix in.
For example, most of the time, not only the tempos but also the downbeats of both tracks
should match. Using a particular point in a track (for mixing in, triggering, etc.) is called “cue-
ing.“
TRAKTOR KONTROL S2 lets you mark points for cueing — we call them Cue Points. This no-
tably allows you to re-use these points at a later stage, or in a later session.
The four unlit CUE/REMIXSLOTS buttons.

On the right Deck, whether or not the track is playing, simply press one of the unlit CUE/
REMIX SLOTS buttons 1-4 on a downbeat — let’s say the CUE/REMIX SLOTS button 1.
→
The button lights up in blue: you’ve just stored a Cue Point that you can return to, simply
by pressing the same button again.
