General
The Traktor Kontrol X1 MK2 is the successor to the Native Instruments' Traktor Kontrol X1. At first glance, the two MIDI controllers seem very much alike, but look a little closer and you'll notice various enhancements and a fresh new look. The Kontrol X1 MK2 is equipped with a touch strip that controls various functions and offers a more tactile DJ experience without the need for actual turntables. Two clear displays provide you with direct feedback on your performance.
Traktor Kontrol X1 MK2
The Native Instruments X1 MK2 allows you to control two decks. If you want to work with a total of four decks, simply use a second controller. Transport functions, song selection and playlist browsing, effect selection and equalizing - the X1 MK2 puts you in total control. The RGB trigger buttons provide an overview of cue points in loops and show the markers in your tracks. Each deck has its own complete set of controls.
Perfect Integration
As Native Instruments manufactures both software and matching hardware, its products are perfectly compatible with each other. The Traktor Kontrol X1 MK2 is no exception. It doesn't need any drivers, so just plug it in, turn it on and it's Traktor ready. You can easily take the compact and lightweight, yet rugged controller with you and even use it on the road - simply connect it to your laptop. Above all, the Traktor Kontrol X1 MK2 is a refined addition to your DJ setup.

Daarnaast moet je de controls nog wel even mappen voor je het als main controller wil gebruiken.
Verder wel indrukwekkende bouwkwaliteit.
je possède déjà un F1 et un S2 qui est une bonne combinaison avec le X1
Et Bax Shop c'est du sérieux niveau service et envoi, je l'ai reçu en meme pas 48h donc c'est génial !
Nu zit ik alleen nog te bedenken of ik een volwaardige mixer moet nemen (NI Z2, of een Allen & Heat) of toch ook de Traktor Z1 erbij zodat het trio compleet is :)
