Jan 24, 2019 At $49/£44 when it lands 'this spring,' Traktor DJ 2 is a fair bit pricier than the $10 iPad app it succeeds but we do know a license will come free in the box with the S2 Mk 3. Sep 06, 2018 Traktor Kontrol S2 Mk3 All-In-One DJ Controller for Traktor including Traktor Pro 3 Software Play-anywhere, 2-channel DJ System with one-touch looping, sample, and Mixer FX control. Seamless Traktor Pro 3 Integration Everything you need to mix your music in a set up you can carry anywhere. TRAKTOR KONTROL S2 MK2. The TRAKTOR KONTROL S2 MK2 is the latest version Native Instruments' flagship line of DJ controllers. With exciting new updates including upgraded faders and jog wheels, new support for iOS device control, and a totally redefined user interface, the S2 MK2 is a step-up for the professional controllerist.
Traktor S2 Software
The Traktor team has announced new firmware for the Traktor Kontrol S2 Mk3 and Traktor Kontrol S3 to allow Midi mapping, and also released a public beta of Traktor Pro 3.3, whose headline new features are proper Mac iTunes/Music app integration, and HID compatibility with Pioneer DJ’s XDJ-700 and XDJ-1000 Mk2 media players.
Power mean that the S2 is ready to mix wherever you are. Stereo line and 3.5mm TRS outputs mean you can hook up to club sound systems as well as portable setups. Connect headphones via a 3.5mm output for monitoring. Connect a mic via the 6.3mm TRS input. An iOS port makes the TRAKTOR KONTROL S2 ready for portable DJing with TRAKTOR DJ 2, too. Oct 19, 2018 The Traktor Kontrol S2 Mk3 is a two-channel device for Traktor Pro 3. It doesn’t have the Haptic Drive jogwheels, onboard screens and extensive FX knobs of the Traktor Kontrol S4 Mk3, but it still packs a raft of new features. The Native Instruments TRAKTOR KONTROL S2 MK3 is designed for DJs and electronic music performers that use TRAKTOR DJ software.The updated controller now features large 5.5″ jog wheel platters, which can be used in two modes. Jog mode offers classic spin-to-nudge functions and scratch capabilities, while the Beatgrid Adjust mode allows the jog wheel to manually adjust the beatgrid in TRAKTOR.
Midi for Kontrol S2 Mk3 and Kontrol S3
A curious omission at launch, these devices now get a firmware upgrade so that they can be Midi mapped for use with other software.
It’s now an anomaly that Midi mapping is still locked off for the Kontrol S4 Mk3; while presumably this is due to the device’s complexity because of its feedback screens, we’d expect (hope) to see this added soon.
Traktor Pro 3.3 improvements
Playing nicely with the Mac Music app via the API integration (that has superceded XML integration) is the headline feature here; it seems the Traktor team has finally managed to fix the issue whereby this wasn’t working correctly previously.
There is a switch in the preferences so depending on your OS and whether you’re still running iTunes or Music, you can decide which way to integrate with your choice of Apple app.

The software now also plays nicely with Pioneer DJ’s XDJ-700 and XDJ-1000 Mk2 hardware in HID mode, meaning you don’t need to be using CDJ-2000NXS2 hardware to control Traktor in this way – this will of course be game-changer for the small number of users who want to use Traktor with just such a Pioneer set-up (usually at home or as mobile DJs, we’d guess).
