**Traktor LE Headphone Cue (Help Me!)** I recently bought some nice DJ headphones, with the intent to use them so I could cue Track A in the left ear, and Track B in the right ear. Is that even possible?😕 If so PLEASE HELP! Any input and advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks. ---

Traktor doesn’t have split cueing. ---

Not possible. However if you have a soundcard such as an audio2 you can listen to your mix through the speakers and cue the next tune in your heapdphones. ---

Or you get a DJ mixer which has split cue, output from 4ch sound card, and run Traktor in external mode. What headphones BTW ? ---

which soundcard do suggest- that wouldnt be too expensive, because as of right know I’m on a tight budget. - I bought 2011 skullcandy sk pros for $120 😞 - I also bought a creative xi-fi soundblaster pro soundcard, i’ve read the manual and played around but still had no luck. Any tips or how to’s? ---

Get a NI Audio 2 (or Traktor Audio 2, dunno how it’s called now) ---

> [@Sandwichmixto](#): > > is there any possibility of something cheaper? The Numark DJ I/O would give you what you need. I’ve heard mixed things about the Behringer UCA222 U-Control or similar cards made by them, but at around $30 it’s not exactly a bank-breaker. Should be enough to get you started. Check out the Buy/Sell forum, Craigslist, eBay, etc. and look for a used Audio 2 though, that would probably be the best option if you can get it. EDIT: You never stated how you were controlling Traktor LE. Controller/mouse/external mixer? ---

> [@](#): > > I bought 2011 skullcandy sk pros for $120 So which DJ headphones did you buy?? 😉 Anyhows, pretty much ANY 4+ output channel sound card will do the trick (for now) … I bought one of these a week or so ago for a project and its pretty alright, decent sound, low latency and it was $20 locally, I’ve seen them on Ebay for similar prices.
