If we hold shift and move this knob or the tempo knob in the centre, the BPM will increase/decrease by 1. Now you can use the encoder beside the screen to adjust the BPM. To view the BPM on the display, you’ll need to press the second button on the left side of each display. With this you can adjust the master tempo or whichever track you have set to be the master. The first is with the main tempo knob that’s in the centre of the controller. You may have noticed that the Kontrol S8 is missing tempo faders, so how do you adjust the tempo to beat match? There are 2 ways that you can adjust the tempo. How do you adjust the tempo of individual tracks? The screens will only work with Traktor running and your laptop connected. On this note you cannot connect usb sticks to the Kontrol S8 and use the screens in standalone mode. When using standalone mode you can ignore the deck sections, the mixer section is the only thing that works in standalone mode. That means you can disconnect your laptop and connect turntables or CDJ’s to the Kontrol S8 and DJ with vinyl, CD’s, or with usb sticks connected to a CDJ. The Kontrol S8 can operate in standalone mode.

Anything version older then Traktor Pro 2.7 won’t work with the Kontrol S8. You’ll need to be running at least Traktor Pro 2.7 for Kontrol S8 compatibility. No, you can use the Kontrol S8 with Traktor Pro 2 as well. Do you need Scratch Pro 2 to use the Kontrol S8? (Note*: The Kontrol S8 doesn’t include timecode vinyl/cd’s, you’ll need to purchase these separately). If you really miss having jog wheels or you’re serious about scratching, then having a turntable or CDJ may be necessary. What’s the difference between Traktor Scratch Pro 2 and Traktor Pro 2? The only difference is that Scratch Pro 2 allow you to connect turntables or CDJ’s to the Kontrol S8 and use Traktor timecode vinyl or CD’s to control Traktor’s decks/track playback. This causes a lot of confusion for people.
The Kontrol S8 ships with Traktor Scratch Pro 2. Ryan even goes further, explaining how you can beat match without jog wheels and get the most out of the screens. To help clarify, we decided to pull together a bunch of important questions and answer for them in one clear post.

Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol S8 is just a few weeks old and people still have a lot of questions about it including everything from what software is included to how you can edit beatgrids on the screen.
