A Track Deck can provide the tempo and the beats from the track that is currently play-

The Beatgrid
So that a Track Deck can provide reliable tempo and beats, these must be precisely deter-
mined in the loaded track—if not, the “reference” wouldn’t make any sense. Therefore, tracks
must first be analyzed beforehand by TRAKTOR in order to determine the BPM as well as the
position of the beats. The result of this analysis is the so-called Beatgrid. There is a specific
Beatgrid for each of your tracks:

A track's waveform with Grid Marker (1) and the Beatgrid (indicated by the white vertical segments, 2).
The track’s Beatgrid is not only important when a Track Deck is set as tempo master, but also
when you want this Track Deck to be synchronized with the current tempo master, whichever it
may be.
The included demo tracks used in the tutorials were previously analyzed, therefore they already
have a reliable Beatgrid. Before you can effectively use the synchronization facilities on your
own tracks, you will have to analyze them. By default, this is done automatically when you
import your music into the Track Collection. For more info on how to do this, see chapter

What Is Synched and What Is Not?
Basically, time-evolving FX are always automatically synched to the current tempo master.
On the other hand, for each Track Deck you can decide whether to use the automatic Sync or
not — for example if you want to beat match the track manually (see tutorial in
