DJ Gear Help, American Audio CDJs and TSP

So I’ve been into electronic music for quite some time now and after a semester of music industry arts in College I started producing my own music and looking into DJing. I got Traktor Scratch Pro and the Audio 8DJ soundcard to mess around and I have now acquired a American Audio Q MX-2 Mixer and 2 PSX CDJ’s.

It was working alright before and I can’t find any mapping and I’m not sure if there is compatibility between traktor and my gear. Will I have to just be a CDJ for now?

That is because your gear doesn’t handle MIDI.

You can hook everything with your A8 and use traktor with timecode. You don’t need a mapping.

If you want to control Traktor’s functions that exclude mixer and basic transport control, you need an extra controller like the X1, LPD8, etc.

I will probably end up getting X-1 when I can afford it then to control my traktor thanks. Although it seemed like the FX no my CDJ’s weren’t affecting it at all and it started to not work with the timecode after a while.
