What’s new in Traktor Pro 4? 

Stem Separation powered by AI and RX Transform the way you mix and remix with stem separation powered by AI and iZotope’s legendary RX technology. Precisely isolate and manipulate drums, bass, instruments, and vocals individually. With each stem waveform right in front of you, you can apply filters and effects with a high level of accuracy to get everything sounding just right. 

Flexible BeatgridsTraktor Pro 4’s flexible beatgrids are ideal for moving between genres or mixing tracks with a changing tempo. With flexible beatgrids you can precisely follow each tempo change throughout a track, enabling highly accurate looping, beat jumps, beat effect layering, and beat alignment—all without impacting the audio quality.

Pattern PlayerBring the sounds of iconic drum machines and leading producers to your sets. Pattern Player is packed with percussion kits including the signature drums of industry legends like Rebekah, Luke Slater, Len Faki, Chris Liebing, Dubfire, and many more. 

Ozone MaximizerTake your sounds and sets to new heights while protecting the mix from clipping and distortion. Ozone Maximizer utilizes technology from iZotope’s award-winning Ozone mastering software. Its Intelligent Release Control allows you to finally boost the loudness of your sets without distortion.
