over $500 all-in if ordered from NI or new). Got it used, shipped w/ Canadian taxes for about $350 CAD (vs. and, Traktor seems the go-to for the type of music I'm into / what my friends who DJ all use (bass music, west coast EDM / IDM scene, ecstatic dance, psy-dub/chill/wave, etc.)ĮDIT: have had my S2 MK3 for just over a month. ![]() Yes I am being a bit cheap since it's a new hobby and I'm not sure how serious I'll get. I am open to other brands of hardware with good reason. When I upgrade to Traktor Pro 3, can I still use the S2 / how does a 2-channel mixer work w 4 channels running? I heard NI describe the s2 as "2 + 1" channels, and not sure what that means!.the software), is there any better start-up gear? I'm pretty averse to getting a Pioneer 200 or 400 from what I've read (open to new info!), some have recommended an X1 + mixer (Xone, Z1 or similar), but as far as I can tell, that doesn't give me any tempo/pitch control, which feels crucial. Should I get an S2 mk2 so that I can midi map it to other software if I decide I'm not sitll in love with Traktor in a year (And for wider resale value)? It looks like the mk3 does have midi mapping but this thread says otherwise.Hearing lots of mixed feedback on here and wondering: ![]() ![]() If I was more serious and had more money I'd look at something different (S3, likely S4 is too much $$$ for a noob, or maybe a Z1 + X1 combo).įor now, a solid mixer, pitch faders / tempo control, and loops/hot cues are my essentials (the jog wheels are bonus for me, and even the cues/loops i could handle being on my laptop if it droppd the price point, frankly). I am JUST starting up, currently playing with Traktor DJ 2 and planning to get a controller next month, likely the S2.
