What's New in Traktor Pro 4.1.1

Traktor Pro 4.1.1 is a small update to fix a few issues with the Z1 MK2 and Remix Decks.

Fixed

Z1 MK2 does is not configured automatically on Windows
The Z1 MK2 is now automatically selected and configured when first connected to a Windows computer.
Freeze when switching certain effects to Single Mode (Windows)
The application no longer freezes when selecting the Ramp Deck effect and then switching from Group to Single Mode on Windows computers.
Short samples on Remix decks don't play correctly
Samples of any size now play correctly in Remix Decks without any artefacts.
Samples captured into Remix Decks don't loop correctly
Loops captured from a Track Deck into a slot of a Remix Deck are now correctly quantized and loop seamlessly.
Remix Deck applies wrong BPM to captured loops
When capturing a loop from a track with changing BPM into a Remix Deck, the correct local BPM of the original loop is now applied.

Known issues

Z1 MK2 sometimes assigned to wrong driver on Windows
On connection, sometimes Traktor selects the wrong audio driver for the Z1. In this case, you must select the Z1 MK2 ASIO driver manually in the Audio Setup preferences.
Z1 MK2 firmware update required on first launch
To ensure flawless functionality, the firmware of the Z1 MK2 must be updated on first connection. Traktor will show a dialog pointing you to the device updater, when you first connect your Z1 MK2.
Stems waveforms initially not visible on D2 / S5 /S8
When loading stem files (associated or not) on the D2 / S5 / S8, the waveforms are not displayed (stripe is). With any screen interaction triggering a refresh, the waveforms are shown correctly.
Beatport / Beatsource lossless tracks show wrong compression rate
Tracks from Beatport / Beatsource that you already played in the past in AAC format will continue to show the 256 kbps compression rate, even after you changed your Streaming Preferences on Beatport / Beatsource.com to lossless (Flac). Read more about migrating to Beatport / Beatsource lossless streaming in this article.

What's new in Traktor Pro 4

Traktor Pro 4 is a major update introducing high quality stem separation, flexible Beatgrids and access to the Pattern Player and Ozone Maximizer for all users, with a fresh UI.

Added Feature

Built-in stem separation
Separates any of your local tracks into drums, bass, vocals and instrumental parts in high-quality. Performing with stems is supported by S2 MK3, S4 MK3, S3, X1 MK3, D2, S8 and S5. For older Traktor controllers and for third-party controllers Stem controls can be manually added to the mappings.
Stem mute buttons
The stem control panel in the stem deck has received a dedicated button for muting / unmuting each stem individually.
Flexible beatgrids
Define multiple tempo-zones per track for highly-accurate looping, beat jumps, beat effects, and mixing of tracks with changing tempo.
Separate grid markers and cue points
Grid markers are now completely separate entities to cue points. Hot cues can now be deleted without removing the underlying beat grid.
Grid reset button
The button formerly names "AUTO" in the Grid panel has been renamed to "⟳ Grid" (Reset Grid) to better represent it's action. An additional confirmation dialog for tracks with manually adjusted beat grids prevents their unwanted deletion.
Pattern Player
Bring the sequenced sounds of iconic drum machines and leading producers to your sets. Performance with Pattern Player is supported by all Traktor controllers and and can be mapped via MIDI to third party controllers. This feature was previously only available to subscribers of Traktor Pro Plus.
New Pattern Player Kits
Three new Pattern Player Kits by Rebekah, Len Faki, and Luke Slater have been added to the collection.
Ozone Maximiser
Maximizes your sound, preserving sharp peaks, avoiding distortions, pumping, and clipping. Ozone Maximiser helps blend playlists into one cohesive experience. This feature was previously only available to subscribers of Traktor Pro Plus.
Improved Ozone Maximizer settings
The Ozone Maximizer settings panel has been overworked for more intuitive usage.
UI reskin
A fresh, modern look for the entire user interface.

Application menu logfile access
The Help tab of the Application menu now contains the entry "Show Log File" for direct access to the log files in case these are requested by customer service.

Fixed

Long, sorted playlists no longer flicker when loading tracks or editing metadata.
Crash resulting from high audio channels
There is no longer a crash when assigning audio channels above 12.
Missing path for Save as Webpage
Save as webpage now shows a warning message if the default path is not available on the user's computer.

Changes

Traktor Pro Plus
All features exclusive to Traktor Pro Plus have been moved to the main codebase. The optional Traktor Pro Plus subscription for Traktor Pro 3 will be discontinued at the end of the year.
Setup Wizard
The Setup Wizard has been removed from the Help tab of the Application menu and replaced by an easier to use entry to Reset Settings Default.
All Stems tree node
The "All Stems" tree node has been removed from the browser to prevent confusion of purchased legacy stems with the new generated stems. This folder can be restored by creating a Smart List searching for ".mp4" in the file name.

The naming of the former Beatport Offline Locker has been aligned to its new name: Offline Library.
