TRAKTOR DJ Studio 2.6 delivers an array of powerful new features allowing DJs to mix more versatile and unique sets.

New Features in 2.6


Compatibility to FinalScratch 2
The new version of TRAKTOR DJ Studio is now fully compatible with Stanton’s new FinalScratch 2 hardware, offering DJs mixing with this setup a whole new realm of possibilities.

WMA and AAC Compatibility
DRM-free WMA and AAC file formats are now supported.

Internet Broadcasting
By using Icecast servers (an open source version of the Shoutcast protocol), the mix can be streamed live over the internet. A pre-requisite is, however, that the relevant servers are available and that the protocol is supported by the ISP.

Input Recording
Connect a microphone or line signal directly to TRAKTOR DJ Studio 2.6 and record the signal on-the-fly. The resulting audio file can then be loaded into the virtual deck and mixed back into the set. Alternatively, you can "stream" the live signal directly to your mix - making it possible to add your moderation or a live act to your DJ mix and internet braodcasting.

New Filters
The filter section has been greatly enhanced.

Record the Mix
As well as the popular mix automation feature, it is now possible to record your live mix directly to the hard drive in WAV or AIFF formats.

Enhanced Browser and Playlist Features
A “History” function is now incorporated into the playlist feature, which automatically records details about the date and time tracks were played. Create exact playlists of your mix-sets quickly and easily – print them out or export them. As well as this the browser has special ‘bookmarks’ for fast access to 12 of your favourite folders.

Minute Markers
1-minute markers are included in the small waveform window which displays the entire track. These helpful guides also correspond to the markers on the time-code embedded records, when using TRAKTOR with the new Stanton FINALSCRATCH 2 System.

Release Date
TRAKTOR DJ Studio 2.6 is due for release late in 2004.

It's a free upgrade for registered users of Traktor 2.5 / 2.53 which is quite inexpensive. But I'm not sure if there are time restrictions for when you buy 2.53 and can still get the upgrade.

Free is good..

Does anyone know of a good source to learn Traktor? Like a guide maybe? I know messing around with it is best but sometimes a guide can help too.
