    As a long term (and failry quiet on the forum) user of Traktor professionally, I would like to add a wish on the large list of feature requests here. Coming from (15 years ago) Alcatech's BPM Studio who has one integrated, I (and perhaps many more users) could use a graphic (say 10 bands) equalizer in the master section of the Traktor software, in chain right before the master limiter. It's very usable when playing over a not correctly tuned sound system, as is the case in a fairly large amount of venues, where no house- or system engineer is available and the system is locked. I am aware that DJ's should not have too much control over the sound system itself (possibly doing harm to the sound or physically damaging the system by overloading). Therefore I suggest a limited gain range of the signal (like a room-eq). Using an equalizer on the overall master will cancel the need to use the channel tone-controls, and can stay flat as much as possible during performance and be only used for mix-control and creative effects. Midi mapable would be a great addition to that master equalizer too. It prevents to carry another box from venue to venue....
    I won't go into level overloads, I am in trust that every DJ has basic knowledge of audio-signal leveling.

    Thanks, keep up the good work ;)

    I wanted to suggest exactly that, but you've already done it. I will add a couple of points.
    1) The master EQ can be made either graphical or parametric. Often there is a need to cut a certain frequency that interferes in acoustically unprepared rooms.
    2) Make the option to have the master EQ automatically reset or bypass when exiting the Traktor.

    Sometimes I use one speaker on small events, and it would be good to mix the stereo into mono.
