    Default Noob question about previewing a track

    So I'm using Traktor Scratch Pro and an Akai MPD 24 mdi controller for dj'ing. I just started out and was thinking that while the sync button is nice, I wish there was a way I could preview listen to a track playing on the other deck so I can learn to beat match them by ear. How to you preview tracks in TSP that are playing on the other deck? Will I need an external sound card? TIA

    Cool. I see that Audio 4's are like $200 on most sites. Is there are cheaper option or is this product worth the pirce? I'm on a college budget unfortunately

    The audio 2 is cheaper and will do exactly what you need it to, the only reason i would recommend an audio 4 over an audio2 is if you plan to use vinyl timecode and plan to upgrade to Traktor Scratch Pro.

    But you don't have a sound card? Wouldn't that mean that you bought TPro and then upgraded to TSPro? Why would you do that when you're using a controller and no time code?

    Are you using a cracked version?
    A little bit of gold and a pager.
