I need to buy two lightweight traktor control vinyl mk2.

I would like to know which is the lightest vinyl on the market....

I have seen that it is possible to buy various editions of traktor vinyl on the web:

-traktor scratch mk2 2011 red

-traktor scratch mk2 2012 red

-traktor mk2 2024 edition red or orange.

I know that the coloured versions are lighter than the standard black ones but I need a certain weight to choose the right vinyl.

I need to know if there is a 120g traktor vinyl, (or 130g max)

On the web there is conflicting information about the weight of the vinyls in the various versions, sometimes the weight values in the same edition do not coincide between the various sites.

On the Native instruments site, I have not found the weight specifications.

That is why I am asking you in this community if you could kindly weigh your coloured vinyl, using a scale, and write me here the edition/version of your vinyl with the weight you measured.

Thank you all for your help, I hope it can be of help to others

    Hi, i found that the transparents are one of the lightest (or maybe the lightest). If my memory serves well, there is other, that i sadly dont remember, that its a tad bit lighter than the transparent ones.

    I have had red, blue, white and Black and the transparents are lighter than those (at least the transparents that i have).

    I think that info was on the old forums (sadly they erased them long ago)

    Hope that helps.

    Hi Thank you, but I need a weight measurement...

    Can you do something for me?

    Weigh your transparent Traktor vinyl on a scale (whatever coloured or plain transparent version you have) and then write down the weight for me (in whatever unit of measurement you use in your state), thanks

    The real weight of traktor mk2 black, waiting for someone with the sense to help (and brave) by weighing a red or clear edition to find out if they are lighter than the black version...

    BAX has all of the colours and their corresponding weights listed:

    Native Instruments DVS Vinyl & CDs | Bax Music

    I'd take those values with a pinch of salt, though. I have the Old Red vinyl, and, it is DEFINITELY lighter than the standard (old?) Black.
