    It's your audio settings in preferences. I'm not looking at Traktor, but I believe you need to set output channel A to L channel 1 R Channel 2 and B to L Channel 3 R Channel 4. Click on the big gear upper right to get to the preference pane then click on output routing.

    Make sure you have your headphones and speakers plugged into the right outs. Then if you go to the preferences pane, you can click setup wizard in the bottom left and it will automatically configure speaker settings and controller settings for you.

    Try changing the audio routing to internal. Once again I'm not looking at Traktor right now, but I think you select the very first one on the left of the preference pane. Then click on where you selected the Audio 4 as your soundcard. You did do that right? If you did and are able to change it to internal plug you should get sound out of your computer speakers or your computers headphone jack.

    Confirmed this morning that its not my headphones... They infact do work, i hooked them up to my mixdeck, works fine, so for sure i have something set wrong in traktor.

    I brought my PC, Vestax, Audio4 and headphones, (even a camera to take a picture of my config so i can post) to work this morning, LOL... I will play around with it and see if i can get something going..

    I will try what you stated above and see if that will work!!

    Well...you will be Outputting on Channel A.....and Channel B will be for your phones.

    Check the sound routing and makde sure that channel B is set to MONITOR and Channel A is set to Master Out.

    Hope that helps!
