Great, quite obvious but you’ve quite perfected it.
Thanks again for this blog.

How about, you cut the loop short and bend the pitch and overlay all that with a flanger (70-80% amt).

Excellent video!

I use all 4 of the little black buttons for Loop Start Fwd, Loop Start Bwd, Loop end fwd, loop end bwd.

I find the Start bwd is great for building a drum roll right before the next phrase of a song kicks in, such as the chorus.

Excellent video!

Thanks for the support guys! :-)

Wow I think I am making the switch to tracktor from ableton now lol.

great vid ean

hey ean,

i really like this video. thanks!

Thanks for another killer vid Ean :)

very cool video!

thanks for this Ean!

thanks ean, your traktor tutorials are awesome. keep up the good work!

Good work. I’ve done this by re-organizing the loop-length buttons. The top one does 4 beat loops, the second is 8 beat. the third is loop length double and the fourth is loop end half.

I set my sync buttons to hold instead of toggle and added snap(hold) to them so that the loops are right on the beat, but with snap off immediately after.

Another GREAT video Ean ! I join all thepeople here to thank you for sharing all of your work, which allow us to be better and better with the VCI and Traktor. THANK YOU AGAIN!

well i don't use the vci – 100 yet but i set traktor up to do this with an axiom controller. i actually like to set a 4 – 8 bar loop then drop that bar down to a 1 bar loop, then turn on the beat mangler effect and adjust the gate of the beat mangler with a knob, and change the loop end length at the same time a button. at the peak of the gated drum roll i turn off the loop and beat mangler effect at the same time. which is really cool because if you set it up right with another track playing or start your loop on the right beat once you turn the loop and fx off it drops back in on time.

I know this is an old post but I tried to do this and couldn't quite get it. I was able to half the loop with a button but it wouldn't half further than 1 beat. Anyone know why?

I didn't listen carefully. SNAP OFF!

Ean, first off, just bought a vestax vci 100 because of your amazing videos! Second off good name, like myself!! But i was wondering if you could explain how to do this in Traktor Pro. I'm well aware how to cut the length down to 1/32 with snap off but i don't know how you get the effect of it sounding like its taking off and going higher and higher, don't know what you mean by pitch bend? Is it even possible in T Pro

Basically you need to keep pressing on your vestax the button related to the pitch bend (the one used when tracks are not synced perfectly, the ones that have arrows to the right or left) usually on the right of the phase bar ;)
