Traktor Kontrol S4: A Complete 4-deck Traktor DJ Rig!

Native Instruments' Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3 gives digital DJs like you the options, control, and portability you need to perform like a pro anywhere. This amazing 4-deck DJ system pushes the envelope of hardware/software integration, providing you with a DJ rig that performs like standalone hardware but offers the extreme flexibility of software. Juggle beats, fire off loops, add effects, and scratch with absolute confidence with your Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3 using either the included Traktor Pro 3 software or Native Instruments' Traktor DJ. Whether you're remixing in the studio or performing live, you'll be totally blown away by Native Instruments' Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3.

A complete hardware and software DJ system for everyone

Just add your laptop, tunes, and talent, and you're ready to start DJing with Native Instruments' Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3 DJ controller system. Designed to integrate perfectly with the included Traktor Pro 3 DJ software, the S4 hardware controller matches both its function and its layout, making it incredibly intuitive. Traktor Kontrol S4 is more than just an amazing DJ rig; it also features a powerful mixer engine, award-winning effects, and Native Instruments' super-flexible sample deck architecture. What's more, you can control it all without ever grabbing your mouse or hiding behind your screen.

Powerhouse DJ software for today's competitive digital DJs

Traktor Pro 3, the software behind the Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3 DJ controller system, represents over a decade of DJ software innovation. Simply put, NI wrote the book about controllerism and carved out the niche that's become the amazing world of software DJ systems. With powerful features including a rock-solid sync engine, flexible cue points and grid mapping, and TruWave colored waveforms, Traktor Pro 3 makes DJing with the Traktor Kontrol S4 DJ controller system easy. And the Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3 hardware also integrates perfectly with Native Instruments' Traktor DJ, so you can really travel light.

Amazing hands-on control plus incredible sound quality

Silicone-damped, high-resolution jog wheels give you 30 times the precision of a standard MIDI controller, letting you pull off real turntablist tricks with your Traktor Kontrol S4 MK3 DJ controller. They're also equipped with a patent-pending magnetic brake, which provides a wonderful extra dose of realistic feel. Backlit RGB buttons on the Traktor Kontrol S4 provide you with excellent visual feedback, and a full 4-deck mixer section (complete with dedicated effects controls) put every function you need right under your fingertips. And you don't have to be a seasoned DJ to appreciate the exquisite feel of the Traktor Kontrol S4's amazing faders. Top it all off with a 4-channel 24-bit/96kHz audio interface, and you're ready to DJ anywhere with this rig.

Worth the money!! Excellent controller!

This controller delivers everything NI promises. I really like the feel of the knobs and faders. Very clean and compact without being too clunky. Well worth the price - trust.

Highly recommended

The S4 MK3 is an amazing piece of technology. The overall design and aesthetic of this controller is really clean and modern. It is extremely well built and the attention to detail that Native Instruments put into this controller is obvious. It works so well with the new Traktor Pro 3 software, I mean I really don't have any complaints at all. If you are reading this and considering buying this controller, buy it! You will be glad you did.

My favorite Traktor so far!

I've owned the first generation of S2 and the MK2 S4, but this one is my favorite by far. I've also ordered the laptop/controller stand and it's great! Thank you Sweetwater!
