Native Instruments Traktor MX2 DJ Controller

Traktor MX2 DJ Controller  Overview

The Native Instruments TRAKTOR MX2 is a next-generation, 2-channel DJ controller that includes the full version of Traktor Pro 4 software, giving you hands-on control over beatmatching, looping, effects, and stem separation.

The mix includes jog wheels, faders, EQ, and 16 RGB pads for hot cues, loops, pattern sequencing, and stem editing. Creative tools, including 40+ studio-grade effects, Mixer FX, and the Pattern Player, can be directly controlled. The built-in 24-bit/96 kHz audio interface produces high-quality sound. The MX2 includes a two-month trial of Beatport Streaming Advanced for new customers.

Designed to play it your way: stems, Pattern Player, and riotous remixing.

The Traktor Kontrol MX2 DJ controller is ergonomically intended to unleash the full power of Native Instruments’ Traktor Pro 4 software while maintaining versatility. Controller-wide RGB illumination provides critical, real-time visual feedback, ensuring that all custom-assigned performance preferences, operating modes, and other settings are promptly and discreetly displayed.

Thanks to the power of iZotope’s integration with Traktor Pro 4, high-precision stem separation is always available, instantly separating your favorite songs into vocal, instrumental, bass, and drum tracks for unimaginably transformative remixes, pushing your sets to uncharted territory of mixing magic. With Pattern Player, your MX2 uses Traktor’s internal drum machine to send a flood of drums into your mix, synchronizing rhythmic patterns across many kits to add a multitude of grooves, textures, fills, and tones.

Extremely versatile FX

Mixer FX

Dedicated knobs allow you to quickly apply filters or effects to particular channels when it matters the most. Drive the dance floor forward with drops, buildups, and smooth transitions, or switch it up by reaching for iconic Traktor reverb, creative delays, and more.

Deck FX

Push the boundaries with sophisticated effects control that allows you to twist, modify, and transform your sound in real time. Choose from over 40 effects, layer them, and push your compositions to new heights using reverb, time-stretching algorithms, creative delays, and more.

Jog the wheels

Nudge, scratch, and scroll. Jog wheels are great for beatmatching, locating your starting point, and rewinding. They’re also designed to complement your spinning technique, featuring Turntable and Jog modes.

Find tracks quicker.

Get what you need quickly with distinct options for pre-listening, browsing favorites, adding music to a prep list, and switching to full-screen browse mode.

Pliable performance pads and 16 color-customizable controls.

Each deck of the Traktor Kontrol MX2 has eight performance pads with complete color customization, which match the MX2’s lighting undercarriage and provide four forms of musical manipulation: Hotcue, Stem, Step-sequencer, and Flux Loops.

•  Hotcue mode allows for quick access to assigned crucial spots in each track. Build-ups, transitions, dips, stemming points for vocals, and drum-fueled outros transport your listener on a musical journey.
•  Use Traktor’s stem mode with the MX2’s performance pads to access filtering, dynamics, muting, and other sound-shaping options.
•  Step-sequencer mode allows for real-time programming of grooves and progressions using Traktor’s 16 drum kits to fit your space and style.
•  The Flux Loops mode allows you to create loops using performance pads, making it a more advanced looper. Without disturbing the current track, Flux Loops provides an extremely flexible and powerful approach of weaving loops, energy, and key sections to meet the moment while quickly returning to your beginning point.
