The Traktor DJ iPad App has been out for a few months now and veteran DJ Shiftee even produced a cool video showing all of the digital goodness that lies within Traktor DJ once you get the hang of the features. Native Instruments has just released a new youtube playlist consisting of five Tutorial Videos that show users how to get started with the Traktor DJ App. These Tutorials include: Collection Sync, Browsing, Preparation, Mixing, and Performing. Check out these tutorial videos after the jump.

Yesterday, Native Instruments released a new Free Traktor DJ 1.5 update for the iOS DJ platform which adds a new SuperSlicer feature that's sure to get DJ's talking. The new SuperSlicer feature works just like Pioneer or Serato's slicer function in that the music gets divided into equal parts for manupulation, but the SuperSlicer also lets DJ's add deconstruct loops using Scratch, Brake, Reverse, Slice or even Pitch-Shift effects.

A few short weeks ago after NAMM 2013, I was invited to NYC to meet with the Native Instruments team for a top-secret product reveal. This new product has now been released to the public today and DJ's everywhere are already clamoring for the download. The new Traktor DJ App for the iPad is here and for the small fee of only $20, anyone with a shiny iPad can venture into the Traktor realm of DJ control. Check out the full press release, demo video, and my full breakdown after the jump.

The Traktor Kontrol Z2 2+2 Mixer/Controller was just released a couple of months ago and it's already looking like another success for NI. The popularity of our Full HD-Video review and the DIY Full-Innofader installation Video for the Z2 confirms that this product has the goods to become a major player in the DJ arena. The Decksaver team has just shipped the new polycarbonate covers for the Traktor Kontrol Z2 and Mixware.net was gracious enough to send one to the DJbooth Lab for a quick feature video after the jump.

DJ Controllers

Native Instruments set the DJ World ablaze with the inclusion of the new Remix Decks and the F1 controller which works in Traktor 2.6. Now, Traktor Pro owners have yet another reason to rejoice. Native Instruments will work with leading artists and music-makers to provide new loops and sample packs to its users in order to keep your sets fresh and new. These sets will cost less than $5 a pop and the series kicks off with the new M.A.N.D.Y pack which is available now. Check out the press release, M.A.N.D.Y video, and other links inside.

The Numark 4Trak is one of my favorite Digital DJ controllers ever made to control Traktor and they've recently released a brand new mapping file on their website to update the unit to work seamlessly with the new Traktor 2.6 updates. The new Flux Mode and Macro FX in Traktor 2.6 are very easy to use on the 4TRAK now thanks to the new file release and Jason from Numark is here to give you all the details in this latest video tutorial. Peep the video after the jump.

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!

Just as I'm heading out the door to drive less than an hour away to the DJ Expo in Atlantic City, Native Instruments sends me a new press release about their new Traktor DJ Cable. The Traktor DJ Cable is now available for only $19.99 and it works as a DJ splitter cable which turns one eighth-inch output into two separate output sockets. This is imperative for DJ's as one output is used to cue (or pre-listen) to the music in the headphones while the audience listens to the master output through the speakers.
