Native Instruments’ TRAKTOR PRO 2 and TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO2 DJ software is now compatible with the DVS feature of Pioneer's flagship DJM-900NXS2 mixer, and the USB-HID control feature of our CDJ-2000NXS2 multi player.
This comes under the Pioneer DJ Certification Program, an initiative to evaluate products from other companies and certify compatibility with Pioneer DJ gear.
Connect the DJM-900NXS2 to your PC/Mac and you can use TRAKTOR SCRATCH PRO 2’s hands-on timecode control feature to control digital audio files on your computer using turntables (with the TRAKTOR SCRATCH control vinyl) or via the jog wheels on multi players (using timecode CDs). And set changeovers are easy thanks to two built-in sound cards.
You can use the CDJ-2000NXS2 to control TRAKTOR PRO 2 including scratching and tempo adjustment without needing a timecode disc. The deck also displays track titles, artwork and other information from the software so you can quickly select your next track without looking at your computer.
Registered users can download the latest version of TRAKTOR (version 2.11.0) for free to use the DVS feature with the DJM-900NXS2, or to use USB-HID control with the CDJ2000NXS2. You’ll also need to update your firmware for the CDJ-2000NXS2 to Ver.1.50, and for the DJM-900NXS2 to Ver.1.20 if you haven’t already.
