4. TRAKTOR KONTROL S3 OVERVIEW
This section introduces you to the TRAKTOR KONTROL S3 and all its control elements and con-
nectors.
(1) Decks: You can use the Decks to control tracks and Samples, similar to DJ turntables or CD
players but with additional features. TRAKTOR controls four virtual Decks and each of them can
be operated in several Deck Types.
TRAKTOR provides you with four virtual decks. The two Decks on your S3 hardware controller al-
low you to control the four software Decks A, B, C and D in TRAKTOR: the left Deck on your S3
controls Decks A and C in the software. The right Deck on your S3 controls Decks B and D in the
software. For more information on the Deck control elements, refer to Decks.
(2) Mixer: You can use the Mixer to mix the audio signals coming from the Decks. The Mixer sits in
the middle of the TRAKTOR software as well as on your TRAKTOR KONTROL S3 controller. On
the S3, the Mixer consists of the four Mixer channels A, B, C, and D which receive the individual
audio signals from the corresponding Decks. Each Mixer channel contains controls to modulate
the audio signal and to adjust the outgoing volume before the audio signal is sent to the MASTER
output. Furthermore, the Mixer provides a crossfader to let you fade between the audio signals in
the Mixer channels.
For more information on the Mixer control elements, refer to Mixer.
