    2. Traktor LE 2 Mapping Details The volume faders become pitch faders. Moving the fader on either channel automatically disables beat sync on that deck. Passing the center click while holding Shift will reset the pitch to zero. Turning the top encoder sets the tempo range. Pushing it resets the range to 8%.

    Passing the center while holding Shift will reset the pitch to zero (in case the TWEAKER’s fader position is different from the pitch fader position in Traktor). 8 Turning the top encoder scrolls through the pitch fader ranges.

    If you plan to create your own mappings or edit this one, note that Traktor transposes MIDI Note messages up one octave from the TWEAKER’s mapping. So all notes are one octave higher in Traktor than shown on TWEAKER’s MIDI map (i.e. C#-2 on TWEAKER is equal to C#-1 in Traktor).
