![]() ![]() The “2” button is not assigned so it has no function in Traktor LE. It probably has to do with the assignment of additional functions to these buttons in Traktor LE and the assumption that it is clearer in Traktor Pro (which we haven’t tested). The Shift button is supposed to give direct access to predefined effects like flanger, reverb and delay, unfortunately the information displayed doesn’t match the action assigned. The effects section is very confusing! FX1 and FX2 buttons (available on both decks) allow you to load an effect on the deck, however they don’t actually correspond to FX1 and FX2, but to the Up and Down effects selected (once you know that, it’s easier…). Connecting the cable again has no consequence either and you can take control again within a few seconds as if nothing had happened. However, we couldn’t really notice any obvious differences with controllers using MIDI.īefore trying out every single function, we tried to unplug the USB cable while “live” and noticed that it has no impact on the audio playback. ![]() The Kontrol X1 communicates with TRAKTOR via USB using Native Instruments’ NHL (Native Hardware Library) proprietary protocol, with a much higher encoding resolution than the standard MIDI protocol. You have to be careful with that because, for example, if you want to adjust the tempo of a song and you forget to press the Shift button you’ll activate a loop instead. Mixing is impossible considering that the volume parameters are not assigned to a knob.Īll buttons have a main function which can be accessed directly, and an additional function available through the Shift button. The first thing that caught our attention was that it’s impossible to find the deck’s volume setting, not to mention a crossfader.
