While Traktor's BPM detection is very good, accurately guessing the tempo of some really fractured drum 'n' bass beats I have, relying on a single BPM guide is not always enough to get tracks to line up properly, so Traktor lets the user set their own beat grid manually. A few Traktor-only interface goodies are a Snap mode for navigating the waveform, good for use with beatgrid testing and a track ending warning that uses a user-set time for blinking a warning that your track is ending. Since Traktor basically set the interaction standard for other DJ apps, a lot of the toggles and tricks you find in other programs are close to the same here: right-click and drag to position the sliders and then click the left mouse button to instantly snap to that temporary position, good for quick crossfading or more subtle EQ kills. 1/8 loops: good for those epilepsy fundraisers
