The Native Instruments TRAKTOR KONTROL S3 is designed for DJs and electronic music performers that use TRAKTOR PRO 3 software. The controller features large jog wheels with modes of operation: Turntable, Jog, and Beatgrid. An RGB LED ring surrounds each jog wheel to visualize deck rotation in jog and turntable modes, track tempo, and deck selection (A and B in blue, C and D in orange).
The mixer layout is designed after popular club DJ mixers and features long-life carbon faders, a dedicated cue section, and an adjustable crossfader curve. The 16 RGB pads are used for triggering Hotcues, loops, or samples. The mixer FX now include instant one-knob effects and filters on each channel. Choose from 40 FX on each of the four deck effects.
