I used a Z1 with an iPad2 (2010) and TraktorDJ (1st version, 15$) FOR YEARS and it was great. I have a S2 MK2 and an iPad Air2 now and it all works great together with the 1st version of the app. I tried the TraktorDJ 2 app as well (the one in the video) and I didn't like it at all - a step back in many ways.
Hi Ethan, Is this an iPad Pro with an M1/M2 chip? I've not seen anyone else online that has been able to get the Z1 going with the sound and controls working on an M1/2.
Hello everyone / I have the latest version of the Z1 (self-powered) and an Ipad (7) in OS 16.7.8 / When I connect the cable that connects the Z1 to the Ipad, the mixer lights up and then goes out, then I get a message on the Ipad indicating that the device requires too much power ... Any idea / thanks
Right on, I still have my Z1 (good to see it's still working, even if the app seems to have bit it) and just upgraded from iPad 3 to 10, had a break from djing and now want to get back into it. Can you tell me what you are using to connect the iPad and the Z1 now? I guess USB-C to USB. I was also telling people years ago that touch screen would eventually be the future of djing, and that was after me doing many years of djing techno / minimal on vinyl. The only sucky part is this Djay Pro using a subscription, wish they would just sell it straight, at least a medium features version. The subscription has way more than I would need and the basic version is really basic. Thanks for the demo! I agree withy you, minimal i the way to go with all this tech, more practical.
The djay app is amazing actually I’m shocked your traktor device even connected, you just go to the settings and manually connect I hope because that’s what I do with my ddj 200 Edit:I’m slow I thought the app you were using was djay pro, I didn’t know NI had an app. Is the app kinda the same as djay?
2014 was the last time I used Traktor in the iPad.. as the best matching was always a mess in Software to my standards and there was no time correction possible like speeding up or breaking .. did. it finally change?
Does your Z1 has a power adapter how did you get it to work on your IPad because looks like I have the same Z1 you showed on your video and I’m unable to get it to work with my iPad can you let me know what u did
I believe they changed that in NI, I bought Z1 myself for use like this but I am not able to do so since they made it (recently) to use only with Traktor Pro 3 and for desktop use. I use Z1 now with X1Mk3 and am quite happy
I had this a while back, then I sold it during lockdown. Got too many controllers that I have to clean up some of my stuff. Sadly, this is one of the mininalist controller. The downside is just I cannot control the music without a jogwheel
Still missing the times of the cdj1000mk2s you brought one map of cds and your headphones and that’s it. I started prior the cdj100 have been released with vinyl - yea carrying those to the club was just a pain in the ass .. the golden times guaranteed m you to have the same player in every club so there was no need to carry shit. Like we had the 12X0 technics mk2 before that.
Всем привет! Если Вы приобрели z1 mk1 из последних партий с маркировкой sw (они идут без разъёма для внешнего адаптера питания) - то НИКАК вы не сможете использовать его с iPad. В последних версиях производитель этот функционал убрал, нигде об этом не упомянув. Много знаю людей, кто купил себе новый контроллер ради возможности играть в сетапе с iPad, но напрасно потратили деньги на покупку. Скажем "спасибо" за это "Native Instruments"!!!
awesome setup. I am getting something similar but will prob use a different cheaper speaker setup, got to figure out which one. btw suat is the man!! 😎hahaha
Hey, looks awesome, I definitely need to upgrade my iPad to have this setup :) How does this setup affect the iPad's battery life, like how many hours of the mix recording can it work on the single iPad battery charge? Thank you

Nice one. I like the ipad idea ... playing without a laptop. What kind of spec do you reckon you need?

I love my z1 used it on a few gigz
Hello - Great video. How do you address the power in this set up if you were to use a set up like this for a gathering, etc?
How come my z2 doesn't control the software? I am getting sound through though .
how do I load tracks from my mac mini to the ipad? I do not use icloud. Thanks.

How are you getting your Traktor z1 to work with your iPad with out powering up your z1
Can you load tracks from an external hard drive?
Does traktor work on ipad mini 6? Any idea guys?

Can I get those track ID’s?
Great, honest show!
My z1 did not start with iPad Pro 😒
How do you connect the controller to the traktor dj ? Please
You connect the ipad, start the app on the ipad and there you go
Você tentou mapear a Z1 com o app Djay?

Problem is the ipad battery is shite and you are not charging the ipad with that setup, you need the correct z1 and lead to do this properly

p.s. Версия z1 Mk2(самая новая) - тоже не работает и не будет никогда работать вместе с iPad!!!
awesome setup. I am getting something similar but will prob use a different cheaper speaker setup, got to figure out which one. btw suat is the man!! 😎hahaha
hi , does tractor z1 charge ipad
It will maintain the iPad charge if you are using the Z1 power supply that’s included in the box.

The controller has to be charging the iPad
👍
