4.11.5 Sample Nudge
Sample Nudge works together with Sample Start Offset (above) to fine-tune the start position
of a Sample. For example, if you have moved the Sample Start Offset to 6, then your Sample
will start one and a half beats "late." If you now use Sample Nudge, the Nudge amount will be
in relation to that offset position 6, or one and a half beats. To nudge Samples:
1.
Activate Edit mode by pressing and holding SHIFT while pressing QUANT (EDIT).
2.
Turn the encoder knob until "nU" ("Nudge") is visible on the display.
3.
Press and hold the pad you want to nudge. The Display shows the current nudge amount
in percentage of a sixteenth note. The maximum values are +/-99%.
4.
Turning the encoder knob to the right (clockwise) will increase the nudge amount. Turning
to the left (counterclockwise) will decrease the nudge amount.
5.
Either repeat steps 3 and 4 for nudging or exit Edit mode by pressing SHIFT or QUANT
(EDIT). Both buttons stop blinking and the F1 returns to Performance mode.
Use Sample Nudge to correct small changes in timing for precise beat-matching. You can
also use Sample Nudge to move slightly out of the beat. This might be the case if you want
snares on beats two and four to be slightly "late" with relation to a steady hi-hat stream.
Experiment with Sample Nudge to humanize your remixes.
4.12 MIDI Mode
The default mode of the F1 when pressing SHIFT + BROWSE (MIDI) with TRAKTOR connect-
ed uses the high-resolution, high-speed NHL protocol, offering a great deal of interactivity and
"playability" specifically designed for using TRAKTOR's Remix Decks (User Map mode); howev-
er, there may be situations where you would like to use the F1 as a MIDI controller for control-
ling other MIDI-compatible software. In MIDI mode, the F1 will send ordinary MIDI-standard
signals.
