Reader Arjun from New Delhi, India, writes: “I just ordered my first controller, the Mixtrack Pro, which ships with Virtual DJ. Though it is a great software, I was wondering if there is a Traktor 2 mapping available for the same. Since I am a beginner DJ, I won’t really require four decks at the beginning, but I would still like the flexibility of using Traktor 2 and Virtual DJ, since I am adept at using both the softwares.”
“Can I do that? What will I need to do if i want to switch my software when I want?”
Digital DJ Tips says:
Yes, there’s no problem with doing that. Indeed, in some territories, including Europe, the Mixtrack Pro actually ships with a version of Traktor.
Here’s how to do it: Once you have your Mixtrack Pro installed and working fine with Virtual DJ, launch Traktor 2 with the controller plugged in and turned on. Now go to Preferences > Controller Manager and click Setup Wizard. Follow the instructions to choose Numark then Mixtrack Pro, and answer the rest of the questions accordingly – you can tell it how many decks (two in your case) and also whether you’re using an external mixer or not (you’re not).
When the wizard is finished and you’re returned to the Controller Manager page, in the Device drop down menu at the top of the window, select your Mixtrack Pro. You may have to select its entry in the adjacent In-Port and Out-Port drop-downs too. Finally, got to Audio Setup > Audio Device and select your Mixtrack’s sound interface in that dropdown. You should now be good to go.
Now, to use your Mixtrack Pro with either software, just launch the software you wish to mix with at the time.
Have you got a Mixtrack Pro? Which software do you use it with? Got any tips and tricks to share with us on this controller? Please let us know in the comments!

- The FX controls works with either Simple and Group FX Units. But I recommend to use Group FX Units.
- The FX Touch Strips can be used as 'Auto ON' FX button, and I added an ON/OFF switch for it, it's pretty cool. When you use Shift + FX# button, you activate the 'Auto ON' function, and the FX button starts to blink to indicate that. Then, the FX will be ON as long you touch the Touch Strip and will turn OFF right after your finger stops touching the Strip. If the 'Auto ON' is off, you can toggle the FX by pressing the FX# button as well (that's the normal behavior and the default).
- The Jog Wheels works as Scratch when touched on the top and works as bend if touched on the borders. You can disable/enable the Scratch function by pressing the Wheel button. If the track is stopped, the Jog Wheels can be used to seek the track (regardless of the Wheel button state) and if you hold the Shift button with the track stopped you can seek the track more accurately, which is great for setting cue points and beatgrids.
- The Pitch Fader is very precise. For instance, you can change from 128.15 to 128.16 easily .
- VU meters are working too. I adjusted them to have a more 'pumping' behavior. In Serato they stuck in reds almost all the time, even with low levels.
- Using the Browser buttons you can navigate by folders, playlists and favorites shortcuts and load to decks or preparation list without the need to put your hands on the laptop. Just use the browse button to scroll, SHIFT + Push the browser button to toggle between List and Tree. You can navigate in yours favorites by pressing SHIFT and rolling the browser button.
- The Touch Strips can also be used to seek a track if used in combination with the Shift button.
- This map was made in Traktor Pro 2.10.2, but should work fine in 2.6+.
