Traktor Z1 mk2 Official Support

Interesting @giu_gi :thinking: I’ll look into this and see if anyone at NI can steer us in the right direction :grin:

sounds good! it would be useful to know the right midi channel of the vumeters to be able to correctly edit the text of the file. I tried with NI controller editor, but it doesn’t recognize the z1 mk2. anyway thanks for your support

@thisisJNR

Thank you! :ok_hand:t3::slightly_smiling_face:

Did you get Djay run in ā€œhardware modeā€ after you mapped the Z1 on the iPad? I want to buy the Z1 but I will only buy it if Djay can run in ā€œhardware modeā€ as I’m using an iPhone and the screen is small compared to an ipad

Apologies for the late reply @GP_NS , I can confirm that Djay can run in Hardware Mode with the Kontrol Z1 MK2 - I had the same concern when testing it with an iPhone 13 Mini :sweat_smile:

Didn’t understand still. Will it work on my MacOS?

It’s class compliant so it works 100% on a Mac

@Slak_Jaw still not giving up on Traktor controllers… waiting since X1MK3 came out…

I am getting jealous when I see that you succeeded in midi mapping the Z1 mk2 and the X1 mk3. I have them both but even if they are recognized by my MacBook and by Algoriddim Djay Pro, nothing happens when I’m turning the nobs in the midi mapping menu. The controller is mentioned on top of the midi mapping popup and I have an active PRO Subscription. I must be doing something wrong but can’t figure out what. Any ideas?

Did you put the controllers in MIDI mode? (Hold down SHIFT and press MODE)

I knew it should be something stupid. My other devices don’t need the midi mode. Thanks Michael, I had a lot of fun playing with the Z1 and X1.
