Connection problem

When connecting with USB cable, the Kontrol Z1 flashes lights for a second but then turns dark.
I checked the updates and the cable should work just fine.

In that case you have to put the unit into midi mode.
You can see here how to switch both the z1 and the z1 mk2 into midi mode:

And Traktor is started?
What OS and Traktor version are you running? Do other controllers work?

Yeah, it's a controller made for traktor.
Rekordbox does not know what to do when you press the buttons. You have to map each one yourself. And you will be limited. It will most likely never work as well as a controller designed for the software.
For rekordbox a flx4 is a decent entry level controller.
If you just bought the Z1 mk2 you also got traktor Pro 4 with it.
