[Video] DJ Shiftee: Traktor Kontrol Z2 & Maschine Performance

DJ Shiftee is back at it again but this time he's got even more Native Instruments goodness to show us all. This latest video shows DJ Shiftee ripping it up on the Traktor Kontrol Z2 along side his all gold Technics 1200's and the gold Maschine MK2. DJ Shiftee does it all from scratching, to juggling, to drumming and never skips a beat in the process. Check out this cool new performance video, then head out and get your own Z2 and/or Maschine in time for the holidays!

The Traktor Kontrol Z2 is finally upon us and my review unit is steadily on its way to the lab for our full-out and extremely-detailed HD-Video review. The unboxing video will make it's way to you first, so stay tuned. In the meantime, Native Instruments finally decided to let DJ Craze put some of his turntablist wizardry to work on the new Traktor Kontrol Z2 and the results are excellent!

We recently reviewed the new Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol S8 which is a very powerful DJ controller for Traktor while also working as a DVS enabled mixer for external turntables and CDJ style control. The legendary DJ Shiftee has just completed a pretty sick turntable timecode DVS performance along with using some of the new cool features on the Traktor Kontrol S8 such as Freeze Mode. Check out this dope performance video to see what's possible with the new S8.

While I was sick to the stomach for days on end last week, Native Instruments decided it would be the perfect time to release the details of the newly teased Traktor Mixer that everyone is dying to learn more about. Now that I'm (almost) back to form and playing catchup, I'll go over a few of the details with you on the brand new 2+2 Traktor Kontrol Z2 mixer, show you the new Ean Golden Demo video, and give you some additional links for more resources until we get our Review unit in the Lab for our notoriously detailed video reviews. Check it out after the jump.

The new Traktor created controller-mixer is now in the DJbooth Lab for a full out HD-Video review. The new Traktor Kontrol Z2 2+2 controller/mixer has been available for about a month now, but they've been flying off the store shelves pretty quickly. Fortunately, my good friend's over at Native Instruments sent me a unit directly from Germany so our readers can see exactly what the Z2 is all about. The Full HD-Video and written reviews regarding the new hardware and the Traktor 2.6 Software update will be done within the next week or so. For now, check out our unboxing and first impressions video after the jump to see what the Z2 looks like straight out of the box.

The Native Instruments Traktor Kontrol Z2 Mixer has been out on the market for a few months now and everyone who loves Traktor loves using this mixer. The Traktor Kontrol Z2 has removable faceplates that can now be customized with the help of our friends over at Styleflip.com. Styleflip is now the first company to offer a custom skin for the Traktor Kontrol Z2 mixer to both protect it and to add some of your own unique style. Check out the video of my own Custom Traktor Kontrol Z2 courtesy of Styleflip.com after the jump.

For the past few years, there's been one DJ crossfader on the market that seems to rise above the competition. The Innofader is a durable and highly customizable fader that can be purchased and installed to upgrade your current crossfader or linefaders found on a DJ Mixer or DJ Controller. The Innofader can work with many different mixers or controllers and can be adjusted in many different ways so the DJ gets a seriously customized feel to suit his/her fader-needs. Users can adjust the tension, the cut-in distance, and the sharpness of the curve on the Innofader. The Innofader comes in many different models such as the Innobender and the Innofader PNP which work with various styles of DJ Mixers and Controllers. Audio Innovative was gracious enough to send me a new Innofader PNP to show the masses just how easy it is to install inside the all new Traktor Kontrol Z2. Check out the DIY video after the jump.
