Help connecting a pair of Traktor X1s to a Laptop/Mixer

[dx052]

I use Traktor pro and I need help fiquring out how to connect Two Traktor X1s to a Pioneer DJM 750MK2 or another 4 channel mixer. I know that X1s are just midi controllers so would I have to connect both independently to my laptop or could I use a USB Hub? Would be nice to have a less connections/box in the chain if there is a better solution?

Yes, an usb hub is possible. Some mixers have an usb hub build in (traktor z2, mixars etc), so then you only have one usb cable between your laptop and your mixer. But always plug in your mixer/soundcard straight into the laptop, not by the hub. Then you have no latency issues! Other controllers like X1 or F1 are fine via a hub.
