Touch and See Workflow
TRAKTOR KONTROL S5 combines time-tested TRAKTOR hardware control and advanced visual feedback for workflow that enhances your performance.
Touch-sensitive knobs instantly activate the Browse View, loops, plus filter, pitch, and effect parameters on the displays to keep you in control in the heat of the night. And TRAKTOR deck flavors switch automatically on the displays to match the track, Stem file, or Remix Set being loaded – no interrupted workflow.
Stem Decks
The S5’s performance pads instantly map to each stem part when a Stem file is loaded. Mute or unmute, control volume, and add filters to stems with the pads and touch-sensitive encoders. Or add effects to individual sounds by holding shift and selecting stems.
Mixing. Evolved.
TRAKTOR KONTROL S5 delivers premium 4-channel mixing and deck controls built to the highest standards for the modern DJ – everything digital DJing demands in a compact, rock-solid design. Cutting-edge TRAKTOR hardware features and multisensory DJ technology bring flagship TRAKTOR software to life right in front of you.
Access key controls, Stem Decks, or Remix Decks, and trigger loops, cue points, or FX directly on the unit. Plug-and-play control of TRAKTOR PRO means no mapping or control assignments necessary.
Enhanced Decks
Simple and intuitive – right from the start. Touch-sensitive Browse, Loop, and FX knobs trigger smart views and pop-up panels on the displays. And precision touch strips allow for pitch bending, track seeking, and vinyl scratch emulation.
Eight color-coded performance pads per deck unlock the door to creative performance. Slice-up and rearrange in Freeze mode, tweak your loops, improvise using hotcues, and control Stem and Remix Decks – all within view, and within reach.
Audio Interface
The S5’s built-in soundcard provides essential connectivity and 24-bit/48 kHz of pristine audio guaranteed to pack a punch in any room. Connect to any sound system in seconds – XLR and RCA master outputs, plus a ¼ inch booth output make setting up the S5 fast and simple at any gig.
And TRAKTOR KONTROL S5 even features an independent AUX channel to connect a mic for the MC, an MP3 player, or any additional device your setup needs.
Smart Views
TRAKTOR KONTROL S8’s smart views and pop-up panels deliver dynamic visual feedback that’s more than meets the eye. Browse your library, monitor effects, improvise on the fly, and more at the touch of a button – and directly within view.
Track Preparation
Keep your tracks ready for the mix. The Beatgrid view instantly shows your grids on the displays for editing in advance or on the fly.
Creative Performance
Trigger cue points and loops with color-coded pads for instant creative editing. The colors match the different hotcue types for easy recognition.
Live Capturing
Remix Decks’ hands-on workflow lets you capture loops from a running track in perfect sync and layer them for advanced track edits on the fly.
Improvising in Freeze
Take a snapshot from a running track using the Freeze Button. A loop appears on the deck display ready for you to slice up with the performance pads.
Enhanced Remix Deck Control
Activate Remix Decks directly from the S8 to see your Remix Sets in full view. Trigger sounds from the performance pads and mix them in with the deck faders.
