Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol S2 MK3 Overview
The Native Instruments TRAKTOR KONTROL S2 MK3 is designed for DJs and electronic music performers that use TRAKTOR DJ software. The updated controller now features large 5.5 jog wheel platters, which can be used in two modes. Jog mode offers classic spin-to-nudge functions and scratch capabilities, while the Beatgrid Adjust mode allows the jog wheel to manually adjust the beatgrid in TRAKTOR.
Other enhancement includes a redesigned mixer layout based on a club-standard 2-channel DJ mixer with an updated monitoring section, 3-band EQ, and updated mixer effects for instant one-knob FX and filter control on each channel. Choose from eight FX and three filter types to assign to four hardware FX slots. Additional features include 16 RGB color coded pads for visual feedback when triggering cue points, samples, and loops, as well as full support for the iPad and iPhone TRAKTOR DJ application. The Native Instruments KONTROL S2 MK3 is USB bus powered and ships with a standard USB 2.0 cable
