    The VCI will work with LE. I have no idea about the preamp but I would think you could use it. Not sure why you need a preamp with a midi controller though.

    I'm not being mean when I say this but read the manual !!!! It will answer about 95% of your questions. We were all noobs once so I feel your pain. I do not have the SE but I did have a regular VCI-100. It was as simple as this.

    Plug in the VCI (turn on)
    Open Traktor
    Open Preferences tab,
    Click on Midi setup
    Load the TKS file

    Bang you are up and running.

    To Use Traktor LE You Will Need To Roll Back To FW1.2 (& Load LE TKS)

    hope that helps! :-)
    To Use The VCI-100 SE Functions You Will Need Traktor 3(.3) With FW1.3 (& Load SE TKS)

    1.2 will work with LE and the traktor LE vci-100 TKS.

    1.3 will only work properly with 3.3 or up and the Special Edition TKS posted on this site.

    There is no TKS for LE, it supports the hardware natively by asking you during the install.
