4. Press an empty (unlit) Cue/Sample Trigger button.

The button lights up green, to indicate that a loop is stored there.
Both the loop start point and the loop length are stored this way. When you trigger a stored
loop, you can change its current length while it is looping, but the actual markers will re-
main unchanged. If you want to change the actual markers (the start point and loop
length), you will have to delete the loop and then reset it with the desired position and
length with the Cue/Sample Trigger buttons. For more details about loops, see the TRAK-
TOR manual.
To delete a loop stored to a Cue/Sample Trigger button:
►
Press SHIFT and then the corresponding Cue/Sample Trigger button.
→
The button will now no longer be lit and can be used for another loop or cue point.
With TRAKTOR's new Flux mode, you can trigger loops / cue points while preserving the
track's phrasing. See ↑4.4, Flux Mode for further information on Flux mode and how it af-
fects cue points and loops.
You can change the behavior of the Cue/Sample Trigger buttons' secondary functions in
TRAKTOR's preferences. See also ↑5.4.5, Cue/Sample Trigger Section (1, 2, 3, 4).
4.3.4 Controlling Remix Decks
When the Deck Flavor is set to Remix Deck, the Cue/Sample Trigger buttons function as Sam-
ple Slot triggers and show the color of the focused Sample Cell within the Remix Deck.
You can change Deck Flavors within the TRAKTOR software by pressing on a Deck's Deck
letter and selecting your Deck Flavor of choice. Please refer to the TRAKTOR Manual for
further instructions.
When you load a Remix Deck, the top row of samples in the four Sample Slots will be control-
led by the Cue/Sample Trigger buttons. If the Deck is stopped when a Remix Deck is loaded,
hitting any of the four Cue/Sample Trigger buttons will trigger the Sample Slot and start the
Deck. Once the Deck is playing, repeatedly pressing the buttons will toggle the Mute state of
the Sample Slot on and off.
Triggering a Remix Deck and toggling mute/unmute:
