Because of these ports, the D2 does require a power supply but Native Instruments will be including a power supply splitter that is capable of powering two D2 controllers to reduce cable clutter. On the back of the unit is a USB hub with two ports (similar to the hub of the Kontrol Z2). The Kontrol D2 has some unique features that aren’t found on the Kontrol S8. The Stem Decks and Stems format will be available Summer 2015. The performance faders and knob correspond to each stem part to give control over mixing, EQing, and effects for individual elements.įor DJs that picked up the Kontrol S8, don’t worry, the S8 will provide the same control over the Stem Decks. Songs can be downloaded in the Stems format and loaded into a Stem Deck, where the song will be split into 4 stems that can be remixed on the fly. In case you missed the Stems announcement, Stems Decks will support the new Stem format being pioneered by Native Instruments. The Kontrol D2 will be the first Stem Deck ready controller. The performance faders and encoders give DJs control over individual remix slot volumes, filters, fx send, and can now easily adjust pitch per remix cell. The screens really make a difference for new stem decks since you can really see which parts are available. The larger pads control a variety of features: remix deck cells, hot cues, loops, and the new Freeze mode. The Kontrol D2 is somewhat of a jack of all trades combining familiar controls from both the Kontrol X1 MK2 and Kontrol F1.
