For a limited time, the Traktor Kontrol S3 has been reduced by its makers, Native Instruments.
The Kontrol S3 was released in November 2019 at a price of $649/£499/€599, bundled with Traktor Pro 3.
It is a four-deck controller, released as a mid-range device, but particularly aimed at DJs who have previously used their two-deck controllers, but wanted more. It fits quite well between the Traktor Kontrol S2 MK3 and the Kontrol S4 MK3.
The four-channel mixer section features full EQ, filter and effects controls. It also has eight RGB pads on each side for samples, loops and hot cues.
The Traktor Kontrol S3 is currently reduced from $649 down to $449, a saving of $200.
In the UK, this is £359, down from £499.
According to their website, the offer is “valid from May 26, 2020, until July 30, 2020, at the NI Online Shop and participating retailers, while stocks last.”
