TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 Overview
On the following pages, you will find a summary of the most important aspects of TRAKTOR's
Remix Decks and the TRAKTOR KONTROL F1.
First of all, you should know that as the proud owner of the F1, you have the ultimate control-
ler for manipulating and performing the Remix Decks. Although you can use the F1 as a MIDI
controller, it was designed principally for one thing: controlling the Remix Decks. This is why
we call it an add-on controller and assume that you are using another controller (such as the
X1, the S2 or S4) for other TRAKTOR software functions such as transport, scratching, FX set-
up and performance, and so on. Note that you can also control and scratch the Remix Decks
using Timecode control with TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2.

About Remix Decks
If you are dealing with TRAKTOR's Remix Decks for the first time, please check out the chap-
ters about TRAKTOR's Decks, and specifically about the Remix Decks in the TRAKTOR 2 Man-
ual. But we know that you are burning with impatience, so here's a quick rundown.
TRAKTOR's Remix Decks might seem like an improved version of the Sample Decks from pre-
vious TRAKTOR versions, but they are much more than that. Here is an overview of some of
the most important aspects:
A Remix Deck consists of 4 Sample Slots, each holding 16 Sample Cells to be loaded with
Samples from the Browser, or for capturing Samples live from Track Decks and the Loop Re-
corder.
