Looking to get an interface. I see that the Audio 8 is significantly cheaper. Any reason why?

The only reason is that the Audio 8 is no longer produced. However, if you need 4 external channels this is the way to go unless you go up to the audio 10.
Acer E5 i7 16GB 512SSD 2TBHD ~ WIN 10 ~ TSP 2.11 ~ AUDIO 6 ~ DUAL X1s ~ DN-X1600 ~ SPECTRA ~ TWISTER ~ ATH-PRO500 MK2 ~ ZED6FX ~ AT2020

I've been reading that Traktor will crash with the current versions since NI isn't updating the drivers for the Audio 8 anymore. Sucks. I had found one for $50 in my local Craigslist.
That sucks, indeed. So, if you are happy with 2 channels then go for the audio 6. I bet that NI isn't going to update their audio interfaces in a long time so it's going to be valid for many years.
Actually you can get 3 stereo channels out of the Traktor Audio 6 and if you only use C and D for remix decks you could merge them into a single channel and use their volume and filter controls to mix them in.
I have 2 audio 8s running on OS X 10.11...the last driver update for it is grand...all working as it should
Traktor Scratch Pro 2.7, MBP 13", iPad 2 & TouchOSC, Reloop NEON, Pioneer DJM750mk2, Mackie d.2, Pioneer CDJ800 x2, Technics SL1210MK2 x2, NI Audio 6 DJ, Dicers,
buy it...thats dirt cheap...you can always resell it...

If it didn't work with one Mac, would it not work on another? I'm curious.
its all troubleshooting. It's one thing a newer DJ needs to be good at especially when it comes to laptops and software routing.
unless of course the unit is broken...
