i think yes on the soundcard, but not sure about the djm mapping. possibly
Here's a thread about midi mapping the 800 with a mapping in it. The little bit of stuff I've read about the 800 is that it's kind of limited as a midi controller.

Depends on if you want to use the DJM as a midi controller or a mixer. It does both rather well, but not at once. If you opt to use it as a mixer, you'd need a four out soundcard.
I would probably run a 4 channel setup if that was my gear, having the apc40 as clip launcher and effects section, having dummy clips on every other track, and using the faders for effect parameters. Then doing the mixing on the 800.
It's a rather large setup thou, might want to thing about how you'd set that up in a tight booth.
thanks all guys ,
If you are only using the DJM as a midi controller (no DJM effects etc) then you'll only need a 2 stereo channel soundcard (one for master, one for monitor).
If you are going to send the audio out to the DJM as seperate channels for mixing you'll need a four stereo channel coundcard.
