So I am wanting to get into using CDJs. The ones in my budget I was looking at and reading about were the Numark NDX 400s. In addition, the mixer I was looking at is the Xone 42.
I would then get rid of my controller (still keeping the midifighter of course) and run off of that.
I am confused about my soundcard though....
1. If I were to continue to use Traktor, I would need to upgrade to Scratch and also purchase timecode cds correct? I would also need to upgrade my soundcard to a 4 channel right?
2. With this mixer and it's effects, I could also lose Traktor altogether and just run burned MP3 cds through the Numarks...eliminating a laptop alltogether. Do I need also need a soundcard if this is the route I am going to take, or do the CD players plug directly into the mixer as well as my speakers?
Upgrading my soundcard is pricy, and I am hoping that #2 will allow me to not need one at all...at the expense of losing Traktor though.
Thank you!
