    You have a $100 soundcard in the S2 and a $14 soundcard in the laptop.

    ok Mr. DJ, which do you want to use?

    I'd want to make sure sound was coming from my S2.

    I believe he got this explained earlier. They plug PA right in his laptop, I assume because of cable connections they have. However there are some cable adapters that can be used as workaround and still be able to play audio out of S2.

    I think we're torn between letting him swim in mediocrity or teaching him to dive into the next level.

    the latter would be best in the long run.

    You're assuming he has control over all the variables.

    An RCA to 3.5mm adapter removes the need to ever use the laptop sound card.

    Ok if you insist on using ASIO4ALL and still want to use the laptop speakers for home then you need to go into the ASIO4ALL control panel and configure it so that the monitoring is on the S2 headphone output jack is on one channel and the other channel has the laptops soundcard. Select the corresponding channels in Traktors audio output section.....done. Obviously you will have to re-configure when you get to the gig

    So i took loverockets hint, and went to sound check today

    I select Kontrol S2 (Asio) as my audio device! Everything on the controller works, except for the tracks won't start....? I turn the filter and gain knobs and I see the feedback in traktor, but when I hit play on my S2, the play button glows in traktor, but the track doesn't start....

    play button glows but track doesn't start. oh no.

    Did you restart the computer ?

    Make sure the audio output routing is correct.

    channels 1 and 2 for monitor

    channels 3 and 4 for master
