Hey so sorry if this is such a noob question and something related has already been posted but here goes.
My friend gave me his copy of Traktor Scratch Pro which isn't using anymore. I took it because deckadance wasn't working with the TurtleBeach USB external soundcard I bought to use for monitoring with headphones. It does however work fine with Virtual DJ but I wanted something a bit more sophisticated. I'm a starter DJ and don't really have equipment yet. I have recently been thinking of getting a Vestax VCI-100 as I have seen how good it is with traktor. I also figured out I need and audio 8 dj (or was it audio 4 dj) to work with Traktor Scratch Pro, which is why I can't use my headphones and this totally sucks.
So Now I was just wondering if I should stick to Virtual DJ which is easy to use but it isn't anything super great. Will the VCI-100 work with this (keep in mind it is version 4.3 Mac but i can get a version 5 soon)? Or is there a way i can make the Traktor Scratch Pro work for me. The thing is i really do not want to spend a lot so getting the Audio Dj soundcard is reeeeallly expensive. Also, would it probably better if I just buy the VCI-100 that comes with Traktor LE and upgrade for very little to Traktor pro, but will this work without the audio dj. I also heard that the traktor certified mixers can replace this and normally this would be better as I would eventually need a mixer, but I noticed all those mixers that are traktor scratch certified are stupidly overpriced. Please help! I want the cheapest way out.
Thanks a bunch in advance!
