About this product
The Native Instruments TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 MK1 is a single deck controller designed for controlling decks and effects within the TRAKTOR software. It features a loop/sampler enhancement and offers a compact, portable form factor in black.

Our take
I picked up this TRAKTOR KONTROL X1 MK1 to add to my existing setup. It's a no-frills single deck controller that does exactly what it promises—deck and effects control for TRAKTOR. The build feels solid enough for the price, and the loop/sampler control is responsive. That said, it's limited to one deck, so if you're looking for a full mixer replacement, this isn't it. The older MK1 model lacks some features found in newer versions, but for $67 it's a budget-friendly way to get hands-on with TRAKTOR. Just make sure you already have a mixer or another controller to pair it with.
