This review has been selected by our experts as particularly helpful.
Over about 9 years of DJing with turntables, CD Players, and toying around with Serato here and there, I decided to make my setup truely mobile. The Kontrol S2 weighs about 5 pounds and it fits in my laptop bookbag. It takes me less than 1 minute to set it up and get started. The scratch feature on these players are extremely accurate, and the internal sound card has loads of power and headroom. The only thing I do not like about it is that it did not come with an instruction manual. There are a ton of features on this controller, but it takes you a while to find everything. I've had it for a month now and I'm still figuring out things and finding new features. Online reviews are extremely limited, but it's fun finding out things about it on your own. Overall, this is one of the best purchases I've ever made in my years of DJing, and its truely an outstanding controler. 3 Thumbs Up Zzounds and 2 Thumbs Up Native Instruments!!!
