REVIEW
The Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol X1 Performance DJ controller stands out with exceptionally high quality workmanship.

With meticulous attention to detail, the knobs and buttons have been designed for maximum accuracy and precision in both appearance and tactility. With its slim, yet super-sturdy construction, the Native Instruments X1 is your companion in any DJing situation. The optional transport bag not only serves to securely transport the unit, but can be turned into a stand that puts X1 at exactly the same height as standard mixers and other DJ hardware.

Seamlessly adjustable LED brightness adapts to any environment from bright daylight to the darkest club. Button off glow when reading button labels in absolute darkness. All buttons feature backlights in multiple colours for ease of use. Bi-directional communication with Traktor uses NHL (Native Hardware Library). The NHL protocol features resolution that is almost 4 times that of regular MIDI. Calibration wizard precisely and individually defines mid-point of each knob. The controller is pre-mapped by the makers of Traktor, with the option to freely customize any individual part. Tweak the defaults or reconfigure the mapping entirely to your preferred workflow. 2 controller overlays for alternative mappings/assignments are already included: one with the pre-configured mappings for Serato Scratch Live; one blank overlay for marking your own assignments.

Included powerful MIDI configuration software provides templates for various applications and gives access to advanced features such as encoder step size, note up/down encoder messages and more. The X1 runs the instant you connect it to your computer with Traktor running. If the USB connection is accidentally disconnected, Traktor continues to play unaffected. Simply plug the X1 back in and it's good to go again.
