Traktor Butter Rugs Now Available

This one is for all the Traktor Digital Vinyl DJ's out there! Introducing the new Traktor Butter Rug slip Mats that are now available online at the Native Instruments website for only $19. Butter rugs were developed by the king himself, DJ Q-Bert in order to give scratch DJ's the most slippery surface available to when using vinyl decks. The Butter Rugs have been around for years, but now they come with the exclusive Traktor symbol for a new custom look. They won't be around for long, so get 'em while you can! Links inside.

The Native Instruments Traktor Scratch Pro Digital Vinyl DJ System is one of the best, if not the best, DVS solutions on the market today. I've been reviewing a lot of these DVS setups as of late, but one thing we often forget to mention is that if you are using the DVS with actual vinyl turntables, then you will eventually need to purchase new stylus and digital control vinyl as these will wear out with continuous use. Traktor offers their Digital control vinyl in many different colors to fit every DJ's needs. Check out my quick feature video of my new white Traktor Control Vinyl inside.
