Native Instruments has announced the Traktor Tutorial DVD ($44), which offers comprehensive video tutorials, artist interviews, and special workshop content to help you get the most out of NI Traktor 3 DJ software.

With more than three hours of high-resolution video, the tutorial covers Traktor techniques such as cueing, looping and effects, and performance controller setup. The tutorial also explains general workflow, playlist and track preparation features, and DJing and remixing techniques using up to four decks at once.

All music tracks from the tutorial examples are included fully licensed on the DVD with complete cue point information, allowing you to follow and replicate the DVD's lessons within Traktor 3. Also included is the "Essential Guide to Playlists" in PDF format, which explains playlist creation and management aspects.
