    Default Who can help me setup Traktor3 with Creative X-Fi 5.1 Sound card.

    Hello, I am using Creative X-Fi 5.1 Sound card, my OS is Windows 7 64 bit, and I'm using Traktor 3. (I have Traktor 2 Pro too).

    So I'm trying to set up external mode in Traktor, but nothing happens. In Output Routing for example in DECK A i choose 1 speaker for left, 2 speaker for right, so in DECK B is the same options like in DECK A.. So, how to get 3rd and 4th options?

    Try uninstalling teh Creative drivers, and using Asio4ALL instead...

    So I did the same what you said, and now I think setup looks how it must look:

    Right?

    So I am setuping at the moment at home, so I don't have any mixer. I am playing music now in Traktor, DECK A is playing and DECK B is playing too, but sound is hearing only from DECK A.
    I am using Creative Speakers 2.1. So I put aux cabel into speakers, and from speakers to here:http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/4845/9id.png

    So what i need to do more?

    Thanks for the answers.

    If you don't have a mixer you need to change the audio routing to Internal:

    Then you have the main out (the speakers)
    And the monitor out (the headphones)

    Nicky's right - if you haven't got a mixer, you won't be mixing in external mode.

    Interesting looking soundcard you've got there. 3 stereo outs.

    Yup. I used to have a desktop with a 5.1 Creative card.

    It cost me next to nothing, and it is an extremely cheap way to get into external mixing!
