Some beginner questions… (regarding VCI-100 & laptop)

hey there..

I just got a few questions because I’m looking to pick up a VCI-100. However, before I buy it I just wanna make some clarifications.

  1. My laptop has a mic and two headphone jacks. If I were to just want my audio to come out my computer speakers would that work?? (I’m just planning on mixing in my room so I don’t need super nice speakers yet.) Or, do I need absolutely need to purchase an external sound card??

  2. My laptop has three USB slots, will this be enough for all the plug-ins that will have to go into my laptop if I do need to buy said sound card?

  3. If I were to purchase the VCI-100 and a Numark DJ/iO, would I need to purchase any additional cords?? Or would everything be included?

Thanks for the help, whoever decides to answer these three pretty easy questions!

  1. Yes

  2. Yes. The VCI only needs 1.

  3. Check with the manufacturers. I think your cables that connect to your laptop are included. But don’t take my word for it.
