Features
This unit, while using the same operation panel layout as Pioneer’s pro-
fessional DJ equipment, has a rounded, amiable form. It is designed to
allow a wide range of users – from those at the start of their DJing experi-
ence to those who have already begun DJ performances in their home
and elsewhere – to enjoy DJ performances in a variety of situations.
PULSE CONTROL
Thanks to the use of the newly developed “Pure Platter” jog dials with
four white LEDs and channel faders with built-in LEDs, the illumination
changes in conjunction with DJ operations, effects, etc., adding bril-
liance to DJ performances.
! Mix Pulse: The offset of the tempo on the two decks is expressed by
the white illumination of the jog dials. The white illumination is lit
brightly when the tempos on the two decks are synchronized, and
the more the tempos are apart, the dimmer the white illumination.
! Beat Pulse: The illumination of the channel faders flashes according
to the decks’ audio levels.
! Launch Pulse: The deck’s illumination changes when a track is
loaded.
! FX Pulse: The jog dial’s illumination changes in response to effect
operations.
TRAKTOR PRO 2
DESIGN
This unit is designed with a rounded body, making it suitable to a wide
variety of lifestyles and harmonizing with all types of interiors.
In addition, the basically black design not only harmonizes with interiors
but also gives it a professional look.
Furthermore, the buttons and controls on the operation panel have the
same layout as Pioneer’s professional DJ devices.
LAPTOP DOCK
This unit uses a new “Laptop Dock” structure by which, when installed
at an angle, the keyboard section of a notebook computer slides under
the controller.
Not only can the controller be installed in small spaces, it can be set at
an angle with the feet still on and operated while seated in a chair, or the
feet can be removed and the controller operated while standing, allow-
ing users to enjoy a wide range of DJ performance styles.

Also, upgrading to TRAKTOR PRO 2 makes it possible not only to oper-
ate a multitude of functions but also to control various other DJ software
programs.

ing it to a computer with a USB cable.
