Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol Z1 4-stars Reviews

Not including full featured software.

The controller it self is ok but the fact you need to spend extra money for the full featured software is embarrassing.

Great basic mixer

Excellent sound quality, very portable and seamlessly integrated with Traktor. It could do with a few more outputs, but what is there works and works well. Fantastic build quality

Lean and mean

I don't DJ much anymore, but when I do I fly to England and bring a MacBook Pro.

Pros

It's light, small but not too small, and has just enough features to allow a full-on two deck mix without a huge drama to set-up. It's great that it works on different devices too. I thought I would miss the jog wheels but I got used to nudging with the mouse/trackpad.

Cons

I'm just a little worried that one day it's going to break inside my gig bag and stop me from playing my set. It feels a bit fragile.
