Headphone Cueing in Traktor Pro 2 ?

I have a DDM4000 mixer, and am using traktor.
I want to know how to cue songs with my headphones, and where to plug my headphones in, because no sound comes out of the mixer, only my laptop.
any ideas ? :)

Your mixer is not an audio interface so you will need an external soundcard with two channels. One for the master out and one for your headphones. If you have one configure traktor in internal mixing mode. Your mixer is only controlling you software atm.

nice.
why would i be here if i already had.

any suggestions on sound cards ? :)

Native instruments audio 2 dj.

cheaper that does the same job ? under $50 ?

You can get one under $50, but they don't do as good a job. There was at least one in the buy/sell section not to long ago.

how so ?

Because anything lower than that generally is a POS not worth buying.

Poor audio quality, poor latency, poor build quality, poor resale value, etcetc
