SoundCloud adds Traktor DJ 2 integration into its increasing range of DJ software integrations. Native Instruments Traktor DJ 2 joins previously announced integrations with Serato, Virtual DJ, DEX 3, Pioneer DJ and Cross DJ 4. SoundCloud’s integration is now live in their new iPad and desktop app, Traktor DJ 2. Created for DJs of all levels, the new Traktor DJ 2 seamlessly connects to SoundCloud, enabling creators to instantly stream and mix SoundCloud’s catalogue of more than 200 million tracks from over 20 million creators around the world.
To celebrate the launch, a series of playlists reproducing real setlists by top DJs Joe Kay, Tommy Four Seven, Objekt, Felix Da Housecat, Kornel Kovacs, and more, are available exclusively on Native Instruments’ SoundCloud profile. DJs at any level can utilize these artist-curated mixes to jump right into mixing sets using SoundCloud and Traktor DJ 2 or to practice their tempo matching, song selection and style techniques.
