3.2. Haptic Drive Modes
You can operate the Jog Wheels on the S4 in three different modes, called HAPTIC DRIVE
MODEs. Each HAPTIC DRIVE MODE provides you with different control functions for the Jog
Wheels.
• JOG mode: The JOG mode lets you control the playback of your tracks by spinning the Jog
Wheel. Depending on the playback state or if you touch the top plate or the outer rim, the be-
havior differs accordingly. In JOG mode you can use the Jog Wheel for tempo bending and
nudging, to cue beats and scratch tracks, as well as seeking within tracks. Furthermore, you
can adjust the tension for the Jog Wheel using the JOG button as well as in the Preferences.
Furthermore, you can enable a tick felt as haptic feedback in the Jog Wheel in the Preferences.
For more information, refer to Using Jog Wheels in JOG Mode.
• TT mode: As with the JOG mode, the TT mode (turntable mode) lets you control the playback
of your tracks. The difference is, the Jog Wheels rotate during playback. This enables you to
control your tracks as you would on conventional turntables. In TT mode you can use the Jog
Wheel for tempo bending and nudging, to cue beats and scratch tracks, as well as seeking
within tracks. Furthermore, you can adjust the base rotation speed using 33.3 revolutions or 45
revolutions per minute. For more information, refer to Using Jog Wheels in Turntable Mode.
• GRID mode: The GRID mode lets you correct faulty Beatgrids for tracks directly on the S4 us-
ing the Jog Wheels and the CUE channel on the fly. For more information, refer to Correcting
Beatgrids of Tracks.
3.3. Pad Modes
You can operate the Pads on a Deck in three different Pad modes. Depending on selected Pad
mode the functions differ accordingly:
• HOTCUES mode: In HOTCUES mode, the Pads let you store and trigger Cue Points and
Loops in tracks and STEM Files as Hotcues. On Decks A and B the HOTCUES button lights
up blue whereas on Decks C and D the HOTCUES button lights up orange. The HOTCUES
mode is the default mode for Track Decks and STEM Decks. For more Information on using
HOTCUES mode, refer to Playing with Cue Points, and Playing with Loops.
HOTCUES mode is not available for Remix Decks. When a Remix Deck is focused,
the HOTCUE button is disabled.
• SAMPLES mode: In SAMPLES mode, the Pads let you control the Samples on the Remix
Deck. The the upper row of Pads give you direct access to the first Samples in the Sample
Slots. When the Deck is focused on a Remix Deck, the SAMPLES mode is enabled by default.
You can enable the SAMPLES mode on a Track Deck and on a STEM Deck as well. This way
you can control the Track Deck or STEM Deck together with the Remix Deck, without switching
the Deck focus to the Remix Deck. For more Information, refer to Playing with Remix Decks.
• STEMS mode: In STEMS mode, the Pads let you control the individual STEM Parts in the
STEM File. With the Pads you can adjust the individual STEM Part volume levels, filters. The
