It’s sturdy, the controls are all smooth and soft, and the extra mile – nutted controls and an included carry case – ensure that the K2 will cope with professional use.The mountain was first surveyed by a British team in 1856. Team member Thomas Montgomerie designated the mountain "K2" for being the second peak of the Karakoram range. The other peaks were originally named K1, K3, K4, and K5, but were eventually renamed Masherbrum, Gasherbrum IV, Gasherbrum II, and Gasherbrum I, respectively. [37] In 1892, Martin Conway led a British expedition that reached " Concordia" on the Baltoro Glacier. [38] This is good. Just like Vestax with their VCI-400, Allen & Heath wants the Xone:K2 to sell to digital DJs and producers who are past the very beginner stage, and who want to customise their set-ups to do exactly what they’re imagining. As such, the unit will be a good companion to all kinds of software. The rear of the Allen & Heath Xone:K2. Note the X:LINK connectors for daisychaining. Size wise the K2 dwarfs the X1, and the build quality is more impressive too; nutted pots add stability and durability whilst the buttons have a more responsive feel. The extra size is put to good use, with the conspicuous addition of sliders and considerably more knobs and buttons. The Allen & Heath Xone:K2 is an advanced, compact universal MIDI controller that works seamlessly alongside your preferred DJ application and features an integrated 4-channel soundcard alongside 52 controls that can be entirely reconfigured to give you the most control possible over your software. This digital DJ controller is perfect for live performers and DJs who need an additional controller to take their performances to the next level and is an excellent companion for mobile/travelling DJs and fits right in at your home DJ setup.

Charles Houston returned to K2 to lead the 1953 American expedition. The attempt failed after a storm pinned down the team for 10 days at 7,800 metres (25,590ft), during which time climber Art Gilkey became critically ill. A desperate retreat followed, during which Pete Schoening saved almost the entire team during a mass fall (known simply as The Belay), and Gilkey was killed, either in an avalanche or in a deliberate attempt to avoid burdening his companions. Despite the retreat and tragic end, the expedition has been given iconic status in mountaineering history. [47] [48] [49] The Gilkey Memorial was built in his memory at the mountain's foot. [50] Success and repeats Achille Compagnoni on K2's summit on the first ascent (31 July 1954) On 9 August 1977, 23 years after the Italian expedition, Ichiro Yoshizawa led the second successful ascent, with Ashraf Aman as the first native Pakistani climber. The Japanese expedition took the Abruzzi Spur and used more than 1,500 porters. [52] The K2 includes an X1 emulation template that does a very good job of aping the functionality of the X1, although of course the main advantage of the NI way is that the controller is laid out specifically for its functions, with labelled fascia to match. Labelling aside, the K2 has so many advantages over the X1 that to put them in direct competition is a little fascile. a b "Karakoram and India/Pakistan Himalayas Ultra-Prominences". peaklist.org .

Even if you’re used to configuring MIDI devices, you’ll still need to read the user manual to configure the Xone:K2. It isn’t difficult to set up, but you do need to understand how to set the MIDI channel it should use and how to configure the layering system. One of the things DJs love about the Traktor Kontrol X1 – on the face of it the most similar controller to this that’s currently out there – is how practical it is.As well as being small and slim, it is lightweight, and you can also buy a lightweight carry case for it to make it easy to transport. Allen & Heath has plainly seen this and taken the concept further with the Xone:K2, which is actually supplied in a snug-fitting, custom case from the off. The four faders have studio-style fader caps and are pretty smooth, although there’s a bit of side-to-side wobble to them. The obvious control candidates for these are the channel faders, but you could also assign them to channel filters or similar controls.
