The microphone input is digitized and available to. It has a pair of balanced 1/4 TRS outputs and a pair of unbalanced RCA outputs which both output the main mix, a 1/4 TRS headphone jack, and a 1/4 TRS microphone input. ** The S2 MK2 is designed to be used with a power supply.

Hey everyone, I updated windows yesterday to the latest version (1 Build 22621) and suddenly my S2 MK3 has stopped working. Kontrol S2 MK3 stopped working after updating Windows. NI has the beginner DJs in mind here – they want great sounding FX options without the option to screw up the mix with too many wild FX. have a s2 mk3 i would like to use the stop like vinyl or cd to play with those effects. On the S2, these FX are pre-assigned and not customizable – designed to sound good no matter what you do with them. They’re very similar to Pioneer DJ’s Sound Color FX. These are new FX that are built into the channel strip, and can be selected instead of the traditional filter. ![]() The only other “big news” on the S2 is the Mixer FX – which I’ve also detailed in the S4 and Traktor Pro 3 articles. They might resist wear and tear a bit longer than the old NI knobs, but we’ve decided to include our own Chroma Caps with every preorder made in our store so that you’ve got the option of comfortable, high-quality rubber controls. I noted this on the S4 article, but it’s worth repeating: all the knobs and faders are now a very basic-feeling plastic. As with the S4, the deck layout has been switched from a mirrored one to a more industry standard duplicate one – meaning all of the controls for each deck are in the same place – notably, the pitch fader is always on the bottom right of the jogwheel. You’ll notice the aesthetics of the S2 are blockier, and more technical feeling – a fresh take on the Kontrol series design that makes them feel more professional. They can be used for classic jog wheel control, or switched into a beatgrid adjustment mode for quickly setting and correcting the beatgrid of tracks. The new Kontrol S2 MK3 doesn’t have the motorized jog or haptic features that the S4 MK3 does, but the joghweels are significantly larger than on the old S2, measuring 5.5″ in diameter.

Most aspiring DJs already have a phone or iPad – so if NI can deliver a complete iOS DJ system with just this controller, they could easily bill this as one of the cheaper ways to get started DJing without a laptop. (Traktor DJ was last updated in June 2017) Traktor DJ has never had a controller designed specifically for it, but the simple fact that there’s an iOS labeled USB port on the back of the unit makes it a really safe bet that a major Traktor DJ update is coming soon – and that the Kontrol S2 MK3 will be the controller to use with it. Take a look at the back of the new S2 MK3: Why put an IOS port on a brand new piece of hardware unless you’re gonna use it? Here’s why: not only is it USB-powered, smaller and lighter than the Kontrol S2 MK2, but also has a still-to-be-revealed functionality: iOS compatibility. What’s the main story with this new S2 release? I actually suspect it isn’t immediately obvious from the photos and videos, but Native Instruments will likely be putting the Kontrol S2 MK3 in the running for the best portable controller on the market.
