I just want to monitor my audio while playing music, should I get this or the Traktor DJ cable?

I do not know of the DJ cable. If you have the equipment to play and monitor 2 independent sources (deck A & B) then you may not need this. I picked it up to enhance the output from my Sony laptop and to prepare tracks for mixing, for example, monitor Deck B while Deck A is playing out and heard though the speakers.

Hello DjA2Z.I use Traktor S4 with Mac, but I work in a radio station where most of the employees are DJs' 60% working with TRAKTOR, and they all run the program without any problem in different types and brands of Laptops. According to the specifications of your computer, do not think you should have any problems with the TRAKTOR S4 if you use as TRAKTOR mixing system.I will recommend it because it's great for everything you can do with this team.Greetings and order in any consuta on this computer.

No. I have another dj app that is not popular and it works well with it. ALL I done was plug it in no additional programming.

Yes. Traktor Pro 2 is ideal for this controller and is compatible. I'm running OS 10.6.8. You should have at least that. I know Ipad can run Traktor as well. Not sure how it fits with this controller though.

Virtual DJ and Trakkor are more or less "plug-and-play". I would imagine its not to difficult to map other software to it http://www.adjaudio.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ItemNumber=1460&Category=23

I'm not familiar with the traktor pro 2 app but l I think this cable is specifically for the Djay app from Algorridim. It works nicely with the djay app as you can cue the next song on the headphone and keep the output to the speakers.

I personally use it with traktor and it runs perfectly, but i believe it is not an analog mixer, as in the fact that it must run through the computer because it is a MIDI controller. Something unique about it though is that you can hook up analogue devices, such as turntables and they work efficiently with the mixer, but through the software.

You need some sort of software. I prefer Virtual DJ. The device itself comes with the program.

I reccomend an external mini mixer. That is what I use to tie in other equipment like another line for another dj, phone, etc. take a look at either at the behringer or Mackie VLZ 402...both are under 100$Rob (DJ Rob-E)

If you are using the Numark Pro hardware, I do not think you will even need this cable. The Griffin DJ cable comes in handy when it is just the iPhone or iPad being used. The Numark Pro would already have all of the outs needed to connect to your speaker system, and a place for your headphones for cueing songs.

It probably will work pretty good, although one issue that I had with Traktor and Windows 7 (regardless the computer) is the audio dropouts (you might want take a look of it), tried to figured out and then switched to Traktor + OSX. No complaints since then.

Its not really a mixer for dj use. You need a mixer with a usb out. This one does not have that.

That's what it is built for! Unlimited audio and MIDI tracks. You *will* need to purchase a separate audio interface if your computer doesn't have say 1/4" and XLR audio inputs, but you can pick one up for a couple hundred bucks here on Amazon if need be.

You will need a stereo or a dj midi mixing console. Something that has rca outputs to.transmit the signal. I own 2 of these and they are alot louder than i thought. Very clean sound and well bilt. I qould recommend them if you do mobile djing or home entertainment

I like the Pyle. It's perfect for me as I DJ at various venues and they are sticklers for DB readings. I would recommend this sound level meter. This one holds steady. If you are trying to use it to master or calibrate the level, might be better to do it in the studio on the boards and re-master session. Or, if you are holding it while you are listening to the sounds, it will give you a reading on what it hears. Can't decipher tones and if you are trying to listen to one deck vs. another. I hope this helps??

Hi Larry, I had to stay away from that this unit I had to send it back due to fact it created havoc with my computer. what I use and have used it "Virtual DJ free" its a program you can download for free , make sure you get the free version from Google. Next I have the "Maqix audio cleaning lab" from Magix.com great software and well worth the money. I never got to use this ION item for it was a mess on my computer so I sent it back fast.hope this helped Randy

I am a happy owner of a Hercules DJ RMX but I recommend you search for newer devices wich have RGB LEDs for feedback, more buttons, etc. Look for something that have native integration with TRAKTOR, instead of Virtual DJ. Althout it can be used with both VDJ & Traktor, it is more focused on VDJ.
