Snap and Quantize Modes
As you probably remember, we already mentioned the Snap and Quantize modes in the tutorial

4.2, Mixing In a Second Track
:
▪
The Snap mode ensures that any Loop or Cue Point you set in a track will snap to the
closest beat.
▪
The Quantize mode ensures that any jump you make within the track will retain the phase
sync — may you jump to a Loop, a Cue Point or a beat.
Both Snap and Quantize modes can be enabled/disabled in TRAKTOR by clicking the corre-
sponding buttons in the Mixer on the software interface:
The SNAP (S) and QUANT (Q) buttons allow you to activate/deactivate Snap and Quantize mode, respectively.
Depending on what you are about to do, you can decide to enable or disable them at any time.
