    Default Mixing just with Traktor Kontrol X1 MkII?

    Hey, I'm new to the DJ scene, and I would like to get rid of my big Numark MixTrack Pro 3, and fully replace it with Traktor X1 MkII as a stand alone player.
    I would like to be able to mix on the go, and at small parties with friends.

    Is this possible?

    Thanks for help!

    Yeah. But why not try the Z1?

    The X1 doesn't have an audio interface, so no headphone monitoring, and no RCA connection for plugging into speakers. The Z1/X1 combo is a monster setup, though.

    that's what I wanted for a minute. Modular. Get some good mappings. Whammo.

    get creative with your mappings. I have no problems with 1 X1 + audio 6... full setup + mixer ftw though 8 years on the X1's btw

    Thanks for the feedback, I bought X1 & Z1 and it is legendary!
    I cannot find any FX for download, any suggestions?
