If so would it be good to use one with a kontrol x1 ?
Using the x1 for Deck a/b , And the K2 for sample decks ?

No-one has DJ/played on one yet as they are not in production but I have messed about with one (not connected to a laptop) just to get a feel for it.
I think the K2 would be great for the sample decks.
Traktor Bible will be bringing a lot of info on the K2 soon.;)
I used two at the BPM expo a month or so ago and didn't like it simply because of the mapping was complicated.
But if i bought one and mapped it to how i want i could really see myself using it for sample decks and stuff. With the connection to other K2's and the DB4 i can really see myself going for it after using 2 K2's and a DB4 at BPM..
Which mapping was it. I believe Richard made 2 mappings. One that emulated the Kontrol X1 and one for the Sample Decks.Quote:

There will be a plethora of mappings available soon.
I have no idea as i was more interested in the DB4 than the K2 as i am a X1 user so i just wanted a loop created so i could mess with the DB4 and the guys from the stand were very helpful but had no idea how to create a loop with the mapping. The guy that created the mapping was busy or away i can't remember. So once i got the loop i kinda just left it be.Quote:

Sweet, Thanx guys.
Have they scheduled a release date for it yet ?
Would love one for christmas.
I think it is getting released after xmas around January as i was wanting one for xmas..Quote:

If not i might get a launchpad and work something out.
Correct me if I'm wrong but would it not also be possible to use the K2 as a 4 channel "mixer" with the X1 controlling decks A + B?
If that were the case you wouldn't really need a mixer, you could just throw both in your bag and go rock a gig...
From what I understand this is possible, with Traktor set to internal mixing ofcourse.Quote:
