COLORS! Browser area.

.
I would love to have the tracks or a color of some kind. To show different bpms of tracks.
Maybe a Range?
So 0-90 bpm number would be yellow
90-100 bpm green
100-130 red.

Just an idea I have noticed using the f1 that once I started a certain color scheme I am more aware of things.
Also having the decks show a color maybe like the border of the deck. A person would be more aware of bpm.
Of course to integrate key somehow would be a plus.
But I know for sure something showing bpm range color wise would make a person very aware of the track playing

nice, but color ranges should be custom. I dont play anything below 120bpm, and most of my music is in the 128~154bpm range.

I would definitely like to see the ability to associate track colors.
Just my thoughts on this:
- Customizable association
-- BPM ranges
---- Set Custom Ranges and associate a color to it

-- Energy Level/Mood of a track
---- Set Categories and associate a color for each

-- Star Rating
---- Link Color based on how many stars a track has

that all sounds great. hope they hear us!

good idea

 

the color should also be set with a user defined function.
So you can set the color depending on the value of other fields - like in MS Excel.

Example
a)
if (BPM>120) and (BPM<125) then RowColor := GREEN

in this case all rows with BPMs between 120 and 125 will be green


b)
if (KEY=F#) OR (KEY = C#) then CellColor[KEY] := BLUE

in this case all cells with F# or C# will be blue

 

@klaus.meier,

automatic playlists are (almost) a pre-requisite for your suggestion. imo, it would be a immense waste to introduce a scripting language just for the colors in the browser list as opposed to making it available for playlist generation as well.

 

It owuld be nice to set a color for each track and have a color column which you can hide. THis way just the text remains that color. I would utilize it in order to create a visual camelot wheel (each color going in order representing key).

How about just something simple. Like being able to highlight the most frequently played or Faves if you will. My mainstream playlist is about 2000 plus. I'd like to be able to highlight the current hits or remixes I use the most. This would make browsing much faster in my case.

 

totally +1!

 

The ability to "highlight" certain tracks (using any color you'd like) could be used for a multitude of different things. Sometimes even just a "HEY, REMEMBER ME? PLAY ME!" sorta thing.

+1 interesting Feature to apply different Colors to either Genrestyles or BPM Ranges.

 

+1, I would like that as well.

Ideally it would be saved in the ID3, so you could use other software (mixed in key, mp3tag etc) to set your tags and Traktor would read & apply the color.

 

Serato has....
