Xone:4D - Traktor Scratch Certified

The certification of the Xone:4D allows users of Traktor Scratch Pro to connect their computer, turntables and CD decks directly to the mixer, and use time-code control without the Audio 8 DJ interface. Native Instruments also provides a controller configuration file for the Xone:4D, enabling DJs to control a range of functions in Traktor Scratch Pro from the MIDI-enabled control elements of the mixer with no additional setup necessary.

According to Native Instruments, it has created the certification program to “maximize the interoperability of digitally equipped high-end DJ mixers with Traktor Scratch, reducing setup complexity and enabling instant connectivity in club environments. Mixers that receive certification are carefully tested for reliable and seamless functional integration, and for their capability to process the high-resolution time-code signal of Traktor Scratch with maximum precision and minimum latency.”

All owners of the Xone:4D and other certified mixers can purchase a special Traktor Scratch Pro Upgrade Kit for $339 / 299 EUR, which contains the software as well as time-code vinyls and CDs.
