Our take
For the price, the Traktor Kontrol Z1 is a fantastic compact mixer/controller. It has a built-in audio interface, so you don't need extra hardware, and the 3-band EQ and filter are responsive. It's perfect for mobile or beginner setups, but the lack of mic and phono inputs limits its use to digital sources only. At $111.80, it's a steal for Traktor users who need a portable solution. The build feels a bit plasticky, but it holds up.
