Hotcue Mode

Pressing the HOTCUE button alone will activate TRAKTOR KONTROL X1's Hotcue mode.
When in this mode, the HOTCUE button will be lit in white and the bottom set of the
TRAKTOR KONTROL X1's transport buttons will switch to Hotcue control.
Only the bottom 16 buttons will be switched to HOTCUE mode.
▪ The HOTCUE buttons are labeled to the left of the buttons themselves, 1 through 8,
which indicates their Hotcue number.
▪ By default, the LOOP IN (HOTCUE 1) button is mapped to a track's first stored Cue
point, which is usually the automatically set grid marker when a track is analyzed by
TRAKTOR. While a track is playing, pressing any of the remaining 7 buttons in the
HOTCUE group will set a new Cue point. The button will light, indicating that a Hot-
cue has been set.
Activating TRAKTOR's Snap mode will force Cue Points to always be set on-beat.
▪ Pressing LOOP IN button again while a track is playing will cause TRAKTOR to imme-
diately skip to that Cue point.
