Whether it’s bass-heavy breakdowns, steppy synths, or peak-time rewinds that define your style, the Traktor Kontrol S2 has everything you need to make your mix happen. Craft sets on two decks and get creative with easy-to-use tools like looping, beat syncing, and club-grade effects.

Turn the music you listen to into the sets you play, with a streamlined interface that makes blending tracks a breeze. Plug in, line up a few of your favourite tracks, and get mixing wherever you are. You can leave the beatmatching to Traktor, so you have more time to pick tunes that fit the vibe, experiment with FX, use looping and remix decks, and to define your own sound. Whether you’re at a house party, a bar, or the club, you can create mixes made to make you move.

Get your mixes down super-quick: Line up your next track, find the cue point, cut the kick, and bring in some reverb before the drop. Easily access expressive effects and essential controls for chops, stops, and seamless transitions. Get the sound in your head through the speakers in seconds. If your style is very hands-on, Native Instruments have given you a lot of jog wheel to play with. Use it to beatmatch tracks – nudge the deck forward or back with the jog wheels to get a track in sync, use the touch-sensitive top-plate to find your starting position, or even spin it back for high-energy rewinds. Because they’re bigger, nudging, scratching, and scrolling is even easier.

Timing is everything, as they say. Jump to different parts of a track with cue points, depending on what the crowd needs. Because each is assigned to one of eight pads on each deck, you can play them like an instrument to seriously chop things up. Use loops for longer mixes or for more time to experiment. Everything will always be in sync with the beat, so you’ll never lose the groove.

You’ve got the perfect playlist down, but it’s what goes on between your tracks that can make all the difference. Build exciting transitions with one-touch control of new Mixer FX on each channel. Open up a big reverb, a dubby delay, or a smooth filter to get your tracks popping during the mix. Choose from eight club-grade effects and three filters, and use up to four at a time with the dedicated Mixer FX control.
