Xone:K1 – DJ MIDI Controller With X:Link by Allen & Heath

Allen & Heath has announced the Xone:K1, a new DJ MIDI controller with a flexible layout compatible with all major DJ software such as Traktor Pro, Ableton, Virtual DJ, MixVibes and more.

The Xone:K1 is easily configurable to allow fast access for setting levels, triggering hot cues, adding effects and instant looping to relieve the DJ from focusing on the computer screen.

The Xone:K1 offers a total of 52 assignable controls for mapping to Traktor Pro, Ableton, Virtual DJ, MixVibes and more. Controls include 6 endless rotary encoders with push switch, 12 analogue pots, 4 linear faders, and 30 backlit performance switches with three-colour illumination.

Xone:K1 is powered over USB, so there’s no need for a separate power cable, and it can be daisy-chained with other :K1s and Xone:K2s over X:LINK, cutting out the need for a separate USB hub.The Allen & Heath X:LINK protocol also lets you expand your setup by connecting directly to Xone:23C, :DB2 and :DB4 mixers.

A black padded case for Xone:K1 is available separately.

Xone:K1 is available for a street price of £159.
