Native Instruments Launches Traktor MX2

Native Instruments has announced the launch of Traktor MX2, which they describe as a next-generation 2-channel DJ controller built for DJs at every stage. They say that MX2 combines a streamlined layout with powerful performance tools and a high-quality built-in audio interface. 

A spokesperson told us, "Whether you're just starting out or looking for a portable setup that's club-ready, MX2 puts everything you need at your fingertips, including the full version of Traktor Pro 4 software and a two-month Beatport Streaming trial for new customers."

Here's the details direct from NI...

A creative performance toolbox
Traktor MX2 gives DJs everything they need to express themselves and stand out with sound, rhythm, and effects:
· Mixer FX made simple – Instantly create drops, buildups, and transitions with a single dial. Nine one-knob effects, from filters to reverbs and delays, let you build tension and release with ease.
· Deck FX for deeper shaping – Take tracks into new territory with more than 40 studio-grade effects. Layer, stretch, or transform sounds in real time across two assignable FX units.
· 16 RGB performance pads – Four versatile pad modes unlock new creative possibilities:
· Hotcues – Jump to peak moments, skip breakdowns, or trigger drops with a single press.
· Flux Loops – Add energy with stuttered loops that stay in sync and return seamlessly to the flow.
· Pattern Player – Turn the pads into a step sequencer to program hi-hats, snares, or percussive fills on the fly.
· Stems – Split tracks into vocals, drums, bass, and instruments to remix live and create unexpected blends.

Light up your mixes
Even in the darkest booth, Traktor MX2 keeps you connected to your performance.
· The illuminated bottom shell warns you when a track is running out or looping, so you're always one step ahead.
· Customizable pad colors let you personalize your setup to match your flow and stand out on stage.
· Two touch-sensitive jog wheels provide precision control for nudging, scratching, and scrolling; with both Turntable and Jog modes.

Sound great anywhere
Wherever you play, from house parties to underground clubs, MX2 delivers high-fidelity 24-bit/96kHz audio through its built-in interface. Powered by iZotope's Ozone Maximizer in Traktor Pro 4, your mixes stay punchy, polished, and distortion-free.

MX2 comes free with a two-month Beatport Streaming subscription for new customers, so you can start DJing in seconds without building a downloaded library. Choose from millions of club-ready tracks, all ready to mix, with curated playlists and charts to spark inspiration.
