**Traktor Kontrol X1**

Ive just bought an X1 from another forum member (thanks AboveDat!) and its due to be delivered in the morning so i’m understandably pretty excited!! I was hoping to run it along side my Digital Jockey to control decks C & D, mainly for triggering loops and Hotcues etc but ive searched this forum and cant really find anyone else using it for this of a similar purpose.

So i have 2 questions:

1 - is this a reasonable use for the X1? and

2 - how do others fit this piece of kit into their set ups?

Appreciate your comments

Have you got it hooked up and running at the same time as your S4?

you change the midi notes of each button in the controller editor so they match the midifighter layout, better than reassigning everything.
