Allen & Heath Xone K3 DJ MIDI Controller

The Allen & Heath Xone:K3 is a professional MIDI controller designed specifically for DJs, live performers and producers who need maximum control over their software and hardware environment. As a logical development of the popular K series, the K3 offers many new features in the usual high-quality finish and compact format.

Thanks to full compatibility with existing K1 and K2 mappings, the Xone:K3 is ready for immediate use as a direct replacement or extension in existing setups. The free Xone Controller Editor software allows complete customization - from MIDI commands to RGB feedback and layer management.

Maximum control in a compact format

With a total of 52 physical controls on three individually assignable levels, up to 174 MIDI functions can be defined per mapping - perfect for complex setups with DAWs, FX modules or performance software such as Traktor, Ableton Live or Resolume.

Sophisticated controls for all applications

The Xone:K3 has a wide range of controls: 30 buttons, 12 pots, 6 endless encoders with push function and 4 faders (60 mm each) - all clearly arranged and ideal for DJ setups, effect control or clip triggering. Thanks to RGB lighting, colors can be assigned individually for each layer or function - perfect for an overview in live use.

Robust and roadworthy

The controller is housed in a high-quality die-cast metal housing and equipped with screw-mounted pots and tactile buttons - ideal for tough use on tour or in the club. Despite its stability, the device remains slim and space-saving and fits seamlessly into any setup alongside mixers and audio interfaces.

Flexible connectivity & easy integration

With USB-C and X:Link connection, the Xone:K3 is ready for modern DJ and studio environments. The controller can be connected directly to compatible Xone mixers such as Xone:96, PX5, 43C or 23C via X:Link - including power supply. Alternatively, the controller can be operated via USB-C, whereby star topologies with multiple K3s are also possible. All devices are recognized independently and can be named individually.

Driver-free & platform-independent

As a class-compliant USB-MIDI device, the K3 requires no driver installation. It works seamlessly under macOS, Windows, iOS and Android, making it easy to integrate into almost any environment - whether in the studio, on stage or in a mobile setup.

Conclusion: Full control for creative freedom

The Xone:K3 is the perfect MIDI controller for anyone who values flexibility, durability and intuitive operation. Whether for performance, DJing or production - with its combination of high-quality hardware, in-depth software integration and compact format, it is the ideal solution for professional applications.
