3.8.4.2 Combining Sounds of different Stem Decks
While the Stem Files are playing back on Deck A and Deck B, you can now perform the follow-
ing actions for mixing both Stem Files. We assume here that the Stem Parts of both of your
chosen Stem Files are using the same naming and coloring scheme e.g. Stem Part 1 for
drums, Stem Part 2 for bass, Stem Part 3 for melody, and Stem Part 4 for vocals.
Combining Sounds
To combine the Sounds of the Stem File on Deck A with the Sounds of the Stem File on Deck
B:
Slowly move Channel fader B to maximum position. Both Stem Files are now audible in the
mix.
1. Lower and raise the Stem Part volumes of both Stem Decks to combine the sounds of
both Stem Files.
2. Slowly move Channel fader A to the minimum position. You now hear the sounds of Stem
File on Deck B only.
3.9 Working with Beatgrids
TRAKTOR recognizes a track's BPM precisely and sets the Beatgrid. Some tracks, however,
need manual correction e.g. a track with a complex rhythm or with uneven timing, coming from
a tape machine or warped vinyl, and the S5 provides you with the controls to do this.
3.9.1 Checking a Beatgrid
To guarantee that all Tempo, Loop and Move controls work as expected, you will have to verify
the Beatgrid for your tracks:
