About this product
This Native Instruments TRAKTOR Kontrol X1 MK2 is a compact, tabletop USB DJ controller designed for hands-on control of TRAKTOR software. It comes from Japan and includes the original box. Priced at $95.00, it offers an affordable entry into the NI ecosystem. The MK2 version improves on the original with better build quality and enhanced controls. Note that it does not include a manufacturer warranty, so you're relying on the seller's condition. It's great for DJs who want dedicated control over decks, effects, and loops without a full mixer setup.
Our take
I picked up this TRAKTOR Kontrol X1 MK2 from Japan, and for $95, it's a solid deal if you're already in the TRAKTOR world. The unit is compact and sleek, perfect for adding extra control without cluttering your setup. The build feels good, and the transport controls, hot cues, and effects knobs are responsive. That said, the lack of a manufacturer warranty makes me a bit wary—I'd want to test it thoroughly on arrival. Also, it's purely a controller; you need a separate audio interface or mixer to output sound. Overall, if you're a TRAKTOR user wanting more hands-on control, this is a budget-friendly way to go.
