General

If the Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol S8 is a tad too big for your taste, you should definitely check out the Traktor Kontrol D2. In essence, this controller represents a single deck of the S8 - in a way, it's a hybrid edition of the Kontrol X1 and F1. Just like its big brother, the S8 scores big when it comes to visual feedback and intuitive control. It's equipped with touch strips, eight performance pads and a full-colour display, which enable you to expertly control Traktor without taking lessons first. Would you like to work with two D2s? You can easily link them by means of the USB hub at the rear. The included power supply splitter enables you to power both controllers with minimal cabling.

The Traktor Kontrol D2: ready for STEMS

The Traktor Kontrol D2 is the first controller that's fully prepared for Native Instruments' new audio format STEMS. Tracks in STEMS format - which consist of a single stereo mix and four different discrete groupings of instruments - can be loaded into a Stem deck, enabling you to make on-the-fly remixes. The controller's faders and controls correspond with individual Stems and put you in control of the mix, tone control and effects for each of them. In the top right corner you'll find four buttons - the main difference from an S8 deck - which enable you to select any of Traktor's four decks. That means that a single D2 suffices as a DJ setup. Retractable feet allow you to tilt the controller towards you for a better viewing angle, or to place it at an average mixer height.

Traktor Kontrol D2: visual feedback

The D2's full-colour display enables you to focus on your music instead of your laptop. It allows you to monitor a browse view, a beatgrid view, an FX panel, a remix view and a freeze view. When you adjust a specific function, like BPM or a filter, a pop-up screen appears that provides you with information or parameters. Thanks to this visual feedback, you no longer have to rely on your laptop screen, which hugely benefits the interaction with your audience. If you're looking for a way to incorporate the functionality of an S8 into your existing DJ setup, the Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol D2 controller is the way to go!

Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol D2 controller

Supper goede midi controller voor als je op zoek bent voor een controller om stems mee te besturen.
En als je iets zoekt om je te onderscheiden van andere Dj's is dit een goede keus.

De Stems.
De stem format is leuk om mee te draaien en opent een hoop mogelijkheden plus dat je mix een stuk cleaner klinkt.
Het enige nadeel is wel dat je al je muziek moet kopen. (een nummer is meestal rond de 3 euro).

De controller.
Door de schermen van de D2 hoef je niet meer naar die van je laptop te kijken (wat voor mij altijd het grootste nadeel was van midi).
De controller zelf voelt solit aan en ziet er goed uit.

voordelen:
- makkelijk mee te nemen voor gigs,
- de schermen,
- je zelf onderscheiden van anderen dj's,
- nieuwe en betere manier van mixen.

nadelen:
- je heb er 2 nodig en ze zijn vrij duur.
- je moet al je muziek kopen (je krijg 65 stems gratis).
