But then he would want a 4 channel sound card, not two. Unless he's planning on sending mono...

I used to use a M-Audio Fast Track USB for recording only, but about 2 years ago I started using it (for about a year) for Dj purposes, the quality is pretty good, and the price isn't too high.

I was in a similar situation as you a few months ago and I did a lot of research and the NI sound cards all were ranked the best.
So I got the Audio 4

2 x audio 2 dj + ASIO drivers = 4 channel sound card for absolutely no money
But no phono pre amps, I was gutted when I realised that, I almost bought one. :P

The original U46DJ DID have pre-amps. I use one for DJ Decks with Serato Vinyl. Keep an eye out on ebay for a u46DJ.
A lot of software has built-in pre-amps, so the U46XL should be fine...DJ'ing: 2x1200MK2, DJM 850, Dicers, F1, Zomo MC-1000, Sony MDR-v700, i7 Win 10 HP Envy
Production: Ableton Live 8 and a mouse, Sennheiser HD400, Sony VAIO

I'd much rather have real pre amps than software. I mean it's probably all fine and dandy, but it just seems wrong... :P Originally Posted by Patch

I was in your shoes and I had to find a good 2 ch soundcard. had a M-Audio FastTrack Pro, for me it was very noisy. had a PreSonus FireBox, it died within 2 weeks. got a Native Instruments Audio2DJ, couldn't be happier. Its loud and clean and simple. Did a head to head with an Rane SL1 and an ESI-Gigaport, and I thought my sound blew both of them out of the water. +1, there is a reason everyone loves their A2DJ.
