So i found out that the ZOMO has a built in sound card.. If i want to use my DJM 800 & Traktor X1 with traktor, would the ZOMO act as not only an additional 2 decks but also as a equilivent sound card to the Traktor Audio 4-10?

Yes.
If you just want OUTPUTS, then the Zomo is a great solution. The Audio 4-10s add an equivalent number of inputs as well, which is useful if you want to use timecode vinyl/CDs etc. If you're using a fully digital setup (either MIDI or HID), then the Zomo would be the better option. Like you said, it gives you two additional decks AND a 4-deck (8 channel) audio interface :)Quote:

Basically the ZOMO would kill 2 birds with 1 stone in sense as it is an alternative to the X1 and the soundcard is decent & i would only need 4 outputs for this setup, correct?Quote:

The only thing that pisses me off about it is 3 cue points... i want 8 :(Quote:

I can record out from the mixer back into the macbook if i wanted to using a RCA - headphone jack plug and switiching my mac preferences to headphone jack as input. My situation is this, buy another new X1 & a second hand 4 output sound card (Traktor audio 8 & 10 are the only ones?) or buy a new ZOMO which can be used for both.Quote:

I rate the X1 better than the ZOMO put with this option i would be spending an additional $180.. is it worth it? i could just use the ZOMO for decks 3 & 4 and as a sound card, or even sell my X1 to cover most of that cost.
Oh geez. Is a Zomo really going to cost you that much?
I cna pick up a Zomo here in the states for ~200 including the mount kit.
Yeah it is, cant buy it in Australia only option is ebay with Buy it now $240 + 60 postage.. could get a used X1 & soundcard for $380 or less so that might be a better optionQuote:
