How to Set the Channel Gain and Autogain in TRAKTOR PRO 2

Since version 2.6, TRAKTOR PRO 2 offers independent level knobs for the Channel Gain and Autogain in the internal mixer channels. The button next to the gain knob is used to switch the view of the knob between Channel Gain and the Autogain value for the currently loaded track.

Note: Both the Channel Gain and the Autogain are active no matter which control is currently shown in the user interface. The total gain applied to the Deck`s output is the sum of both values. If you dial in a Channel Gain of 2dB and the Autogain for the currently loaded track is 1dB, the audio signal from the deck is boosted by a total of 3dB.

• When the button is blue and named GAIN, you're viewing the gain for the mixer channel:
  
• When clicking the button once, it will turn orange and display the currently loaded track's Autogain level:
  

Changes made to the Autogain amount can be heard immediately and are automatically saved to the track. Channel Gain can now be mapped to an absolute knob without having to worry about knob takeover issues. Autogain is only working when Enable Autogain is enabled under Preferences > Mixer > Level.

Note: The Autogain value can not be changed if Analysis Lock (formerly known as BPM Lock) has been enabled for the loaded track.
