Depends exactly how you want to use them, maybe you could be more specific

If i'm not mistaken the 800s and 1000s r set up for midi already. so, yes.

At the very least i know they would work with traktor scratch pro.

why you would wanted to use them with traktor?

the 800s and 1000s do no have midi Aiden. You may be thinking of the DJM-800 and DJM-1000 mixer.

You can absolutely use the decks with traktor if you're using scratch pro. You can so use traktor's audio input to get audio from a CD to pass through into traktor. This can be neet for doing send/return effect type stuff.

It just all depends as to what you're doing or rather, trying to do.

Like Moniker said, the Pioneer mixers DJM- 800 and DJM- 1000 have, somewhat strange, MIDI functionality. (No MIDI Learn if I am correct)

The CDJ-800 and CDJ-1000 still have no MIDI.The CDJ-400 however does.

So for you to use Traktor Pro you'd need the CDJ400s.
In case of the CDJ-1000s you already own, you'd need a copy of Traktor Scratch Pro.
