I wish the mixer was standalone especially for mobile gigs then if the laptop packed in you could still run a backup source through the s4 whilst you sorted things out.I don’t think this is possible but maybe someone on here can enlighten me? The gain controls are a bit bizzare I wish they were like gains on a regulur mixer. I originally started using traktor with the x1 and the clib mixer.Great setup easy to use and easy to fit in a cranped dj booth.I found with the x1 I could more or less do everything and more that I could on a pair of cdjs minus scratching and spinbacks.įor mobile gigs and often in bars I now use an s4mk2.I find it great with a few exceptions,as Ean mentioned the headphones are a bit low. I’ll second the other points though – we should expect a USB hub on the next model (preferably 4 USB ports), and SND/RECEIVE would also be nice. There’s a ton of options out right now, but the one in my head still doesn’t exist. It seems like the S4 is the best “portable, all in one” controller for folks who really still feel the need to manipulate the BPM, but the compromise is the lack of stem control, lack of remix control.

I’ve been looking at the combo of Z2 + a pair of D2s, just to get a modular setup with more flexibility over a variety of needs, but even that has a compromise (lack of full knobs/faders for the C/D decks). At least then it would cover 100% of the bases with no need for external decks/CDJs. Often I wish the S4 and S8 would make a baby to include solid jog wheels and tempo faders. I use my Technics 1210s alongside the controller so I can have the complete control, but when packing for gigs it’s a lot to carry, and takes up a lot of space.

(Yes, you could MIDI map almost any controller to work with Traktor if you’re up for the challenge.) If you’re a Serato or Rekordbox user, there are tons of options out there.Įan has spent countless hours DJing with the Traktor software – so it made sense to shoot a complete round-up review sharing his experiences with each controller. Why compare all the Traktor Kontrol units against each other? The truth is, there aren’t a lot of all-in-one Traktor controllers being made specifically to use with Traktor. See Ean’s review of the Kontrol S4 MK3 here. This article compares the MK2 versions of the Kontrol S2 and S4 – but doesn’t take into account the new MK3 versions released Fall 2018.
