Browser Improvements & Swing Catering

Hey there NI Team & DJ Enthusiasts,

I'm not going to make this too long as to risk this post being ignored.

For the next iteration of Traktor, I think it would be cool to include a feature which allows users the option to make their own browser tags\sorting options (or whatever you would call these: if you're confused, I'm talking about the tabs labeled "Artist", "BPM", "Release", etc.) And I mean in the track browser listing the songs themselves.
I think that this feature would really help when organizing tracks; some Traktor users, like myself, make comments with a great deal of personalized abbreviations & number-codes to detail the characteristics of a track. For example, I have an abbreviation indicating whether the track is straight or swung, an abbreviation for whether it's 4 on the floor or "broken", whether it's in half time (I use this particularly for Dubstep), and various numbers indicating whether the track relies on melodic content, and whether the track is stagnant or whether there are breakdowns, drops, etc that occur frequently. Instead of having to put a "-" in between each of these items, an entirely other section would be awesome, and furthermore, customizing these to meet a DJ's personal tags would be fantastic. Also, giving these the option to have star rating systems or not would be great.
I mean, after reading some of the suggestions in this forum, many of them have to do with including "energy level" columns, and that should most certainly be included in the next update; and if you included my suggestion, then I'm sure OCD DJ's who want many tags, or DJ's just looking to tag a few specific things, this could CERTAINLY be of use.
Also, I think that allowing users to color code tracks would be simply awesome, and this could be included in the browser as well.

My other suggestion deals with Swing v.s Straight songs & including features catering to these.
Please include the option in the beatmasher & the beatslicer, to cater to songs that are swung; I find myself not wanting to use these effects during songs with swing, and I don't think I need to detail why.

Aside from this, I'm fairly satisfied with Traktor Software; Perhaps the only other gripes I would include would be that the EQ's could use a bit of work and the filters especially could use some work.

Thanks for reading!
Joseph

 

many of the things you are asking for have been asked before but it seems N.I. just loves their out date browser.
