Native Instruments Traktor Z2/Maschine demo

I decided to demo the greatness of Native Instruments using the Kontrol Z2 mixer, Maschine MK2 as a midi controller using custom mapping by DJ Soundstorm – www.djsoundstorm.de.

 

I tried to incorporate all the different scratching/mixing techniques while using some of the cool features of Traktor (Remix decks, Loop Recorder, etc.)  This feels like my go to setup as Remix Decks are here to stay, I was just trying to find the right midi controller – Maschine mk2, Kontrol F1 to be comfy  with.  This makes it crazy fun to remix on the fly and be more spontaneous while spinning…  Stay tuned for more cool videos!

I do not own any of the songs played, music used for demonstration purposes only.

My New Traktor S4 is a beast!
