Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol Z1

The TRAKTOR KONTROL Z1 Lightning is a super-slim, incredibly portable and professional 2-channel DJ mixer, controller, and soundcard for Native Instruments’ TRAKTOR DJ and TRAKTOR PRO 2. With a simplified workflow, the KONTROL Z1’s cue section lets you monitor and mix tracks with pro precision. Dedicated controls for two channels give you intuitive, tactile control over volume, EQ, filters, and effects. And the built-in audio interface delivers powerful, club-ready sound.

Perfect Combo
Want to deliver floor-shaking DJ sets with TRAKTOR DJ? Connect your iPad or iPhone to the Z1 and get a complete two-deck DJ setup with ultimate tactile control. Cue up the next track in your headphones while the current track still plays for the crowd. Mix and EQ with pro-grade faders, knobs, and buttons. Apply filters and effects with the ultra-intuitive one sweep knob. The Z1 even switches your turned-on iOS device to external power while you play, so you never have to worry about battery life when your set hits its peak.

Club Compact
TRAKTOR KONTROL Z1 works perfectly with TRAKTOR PRO 2 – plug in and instantly start mixing with hands-on control and premium, club-ready sound. You can also expand your mobile rig with additional creative possibilities: Add TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 to control effects, loops and transport functions like play and sync, and TRAKTOR KONTROL F1 for creative Remix Deck magic.

Whatever your style, build your setup around TRAKTOR KONTROL Z1 and rock the club or the after-party with the most compact, portable TRAKTOR system ever.

Designed for Traktor Pro with STEMS
The latest version of Traktor Pro Software is STEMS ready. A Stem file is an open, multi-channel audio file that contains a track split into four musical elements – bass, drums, vocals, and melody for example. With each element available independently, you can mix in ways that just weren’t possible until now. With Stems fully supported by the included flagship TRAKTOR software, each of these TRAKTOR controllers are pre-mapped and designed for playing with Stems right out of the box. You can get mixing with Stems right away with a 1.5 GB package of free Stems tracks. Derived from selected MASCHINE expansions, these 65 Stems tracks cover a wide range of tempos and genres ranging from techno, house, and funk, to trap, drum and bass, dubstep and more.
