Native Instruments TRAKTOR KONTROL D2 Workflow Details

TRAKTOR KONTROL D2 TOUCH-AND-SEE WORKFLOW:

Finally, a portable professional DJ controller deck that understands your every move. TRAKTOR KONTROL D2’s impressive features work collectively to help improve your skills and set your creativity in motion.

Touch-sensitive knobs respond to activate the Browse View, plus pitch, filter, and effect parameters on the high-res display – keeping you in complete control even in the heat of the DJ performance.

TRAKTOR KONTROL D2 TRACK PREPARATION:
When using a Traktor Kontrol D2 DJ Controller, one thing is for certain, your tracks are ready to hit the dancefloor at anytime. The Beatgrid View immediately shows your grids on the display for effortless editing straight from the Kontrol D2. You can even select and set your track's beatgrid in real time from the first play for when time’s too short to prepare your new favourite.

TRAKTOR KONTROL D2 CREATIVE PERFORMANCE:
For immediate creative editing, triggering cue points and loops could not be easier with Traktor Kontrol D2's colour-coded pads. The colours match different hotcue types for simple recognition. Take a snippet from a running track by using the Freeze Button and slice it up with the performance pads. Or activate the awesome Flux Mode to juggle hotcues for spontaneous re-editing in time – every time.

TRAKTOR KONTROL D2 LIVE REMIXING
Capture the crowd's attention when they hear your signature sound – and your personality. Trigger sample sounds from the performance pads and blend them in with the deck faders. Capture loops from a running track in perfect synchronisation and layer them for advanced track edits on the fly.

TRAKTOR KONTROL D2 STEM DECKS
Native Instruments are renowned for their forward thinking ideas and this is supported by their latest release of the Traktor Kontrol D2 THE first Stems-ready DJ Controller deck. There are four high quality performance faders which are all touch-sensitive, along with four hard-wearing rotary knobs which both instantly correspond to each stem part ready for mixing, EQing or adding effects to individual elements. The display instantly switches to the Stem View when a Stem file* is loaded onto a deck.
