Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol Z1 MK2

Modern Kontrol Capabilities The Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol Z1 MK2 is a portable, powerful, and versatile DJ tool that offers a high-quality audio interface, a small size, dynamic plug-and-play performance, and rich effects. It can mix and manage up to four decks with the included Traktor Pro DJ software and has an extra MIDI layer for third-party applications. The device’s interoperative versatility lays the groundwork for an endless array of boundary-pushing DJ talent. The Traktor Kontrol Z1 MK2 also features improved UI, customizable controls, and increased stem-mixing capabilities, making it a great successor to the Z1. Mixing Controller Among the many enhancements to the Traktor Kontrol Z1 MK2, Native Instruments brilliantly improved the creative potential of this 4-deck DJ mixing controller while maintaining its streamlined and straightforward design factor. Three vibrant OLED displays deliver critical information via dynamic, real-time adaptation to whatever of its powerful tools you’re now modifying and manipulating. For others, this may be the artistry-expanding stem control layer, which lets you weave stems together throughout its 4-channel design, significantly increasing your remixing, mash-up, and beat-juggling possibilities. Mixer FX: Furthermore, the Traktor Kontrol Z1 MK2 features a dual-layer control system that not only widens your reach to four total decks but also allows for a wide range of simultaneous, multichannel mixing. Thanks to these enhanced controls, the Traktor Kontrol Z1 MK2’s suite of Mixer FX allows you to one-knob attenuate nine onboard effects, including reverb, delay, gate, filter, and more, expanding your creative potential to even greater heights of mixing lunacy. Native Instruments also developed this controller with a wide range of customization possibilities, from audio and MIDI control mapping to the LED backlighting of its sleek, redesigned chassis. Ferocious principles and simplified inventiveness. Because the Traktor Kontrol Z1 MK2 is neither a DJ controller nor a mixer, Native Instruments built it to support the fundamentals of each lane while also giving the creative capabilities required to reach the undiscovered peaks of this dynamic form factor. Its dual-layer features allow you to control, freely assign, and change between up to four decks, each with its own 3-band EQ. Furthermore, you may mix and manipulate the Mixer FX and channel gain for each deck individually, from stems and samples to multitrack mash-ups and limitless MIDI possibilities. In reality, MIDI control is restricted to its layer, allowing you to create any galvanizing mixture of third-party plug-in potential and deploy it over all four decks. Wherever Traktor Pro 4 sits in your setup, the Traktor Kontrol Z1 MK2 is eager to broaden your creative horizons, from Traktor Pro 4’s collection of mixing tools to the array of possibilities that extra plug-ins may provide.
