Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol S4 MK2

The innovative design of the S4 MKII features a 4 channel mixer with rock-solid faders and Flux Mode and Loop Recorder controls. The world-renowned Traktor engine ensures perfect sync and super-tight mixing. There's a built-in 24-bit/96kHz low-latency audio interface with Cirrus Logic AD/DA converters and MIDI I/O, plus two analog inputs with phono and mic preamps for connecting turntables, CD players or external gear. There are dedicated Flux Mode controls and a separate booth output on the S4, as well as over 30 DJ-tested effects, plus one-knob Macro FX.

The S4 MKII is ready for the road, with updated hardware featuring a new duo-tone design and improved fader reliability. There are high-res silicone-damped jog wheels with aircraft-grade aluminium top plates and controls include bright, colour-coded RGB buttons to trigger cue points, loops and samples, giving you instant visual feedback. Plug in and play with Traktor DJ for iPad and iPhone, the S4 provides precision control, cueing and club-ready output levels.

You can even expand your set up with the Traktor Kontrol F1 Controller.

With a detachable and replaceable locking cable, rotating ear cups for travel and storage and replaceable ear and head cushions, the KNS 8400 headphones are durable whatever you put them through. A low pressure headband system and self-aligning yoke system ensure comfortability and the best possible fit.

Press Reviews

"I've just fallen in love with a pair of KRK KNS 8400s. The detail in the sound is amazing. It really felt like I was hearing it in the studio."

- Audio Media Magazine

"I found the KNS-8400 to be good for tracking, offering minimal fatigue on the top end, slightly scooped out low mids (around 200 to 400 Hz) and just enough bottom."
