DJBAG - K-Max MK3 Large 3/4 Channel DJ Controller Backpack

As soon as you lay your hand on the DJBag K-Max MK3 Large, you realise that the brand isn't faking its finish. The 900D nylon, waterproofed with a PU coating, is as resistant to splashes as it is to the whims of busy luggage handlers. Inside, 10m of EVA padding protects the controller's edges, while removable inserts adjust to the dimensions of your gear.

It's impossible to ignore the attention to detail that has gone into organising the interior. The main compartment of the K-Max MK3 Large easily accommodates controllers up to 710 x 400 x 100 mm, such as the DDJ-FLX10 or the Traktor Kontrol S8.
A padded pocket accommodates laptops up to 19", while multiple zipped nets hold cables, adapters, USB sticks and other little trinkets always on the run at the bottom of the bag. The clever trick? The inner flap is lined with Crystal velvet, and there are 2 A4 pockets on the back to keep sheet music, flyers and technical data dry and close at hand.

When it comes to transport, the DJBag K-Max MK3 Large will take the strain off your spine. The padded shoulder straps, equipped with credit card pockets, hide away in a compartment when you switch to suitcase mode. Ergonomic handles take over for quick transfers. As a bonus, the integrated TSA padlock keeps your belongings under close surveillance at customs. Thought backpacks couldn't be clever? This one proves you wrong, with a touch of textile irony.

With its sober lines and deep black colour, the DJBag K-Max MK3 Large has an unassuming look, even in the crowded aisles of a festival. It's cabin-compatible with most airlines, so it's just as useful on tour as it is when you're out clubbing. At this stage, all you need is a diary to keep track of your gigs.
