For detailed information on the Touch Strip's preferences, refer to section 6.3, Touch-
strip.
Direction of Tempo Bending
In TRAKTOR's default setting, swiping your finger on the Touch Strip has a similar effect to
speeding up or slowing down an LP with your hand:
▪ Moving to the left speeds up the LP.
▪ Moving to the right slows down the LP.
If you didn't learn aligning LPs on turntables, this behavior may not make sense to you. In-
stead, looking at the waveform, you think in terms of moving the playhead position within the
track. Also, you want Tempo Bending to be consistent with Seeking:
▪ Swipe to the right to move the playhead ahead.
▪ Swipe to the left to move the playhead back.
To achieve this, uncheck the
Invert option in: Preferences> Traktor Kontrol S5>Touch-
strip>Bend Sensitivity.
Sensitivity
S5 comes with a Sensitivity setting which should accommodate most users in most situations.
You might, however, find that the Touch Strip doesn't react immediate enough to your input or
just the opposite, it may recognize input where there was none intended.
You can adjust the Touchstrip's Bend Sensitivity and Scratch Sensitivity separately in: Prefer-
ences> Traktor Kontrol S5>Touchstrip.
