    Hi, ive been having problems with my outputs, i have an external hercules mixer running Virtual dj, and i have a maschine mikro running maschine software, i wanted to be able to mix with my mixer and lay some cool beats with my maschine during a live mix, i was not able to get both software playing live out of my speakers, so i ask now, would a traktor audio 2,6 or 10 help me?

    Hello,

    It is difficult to answer as long if you don't precise what you want to do exactly, and what you have (your computer operating system (Windows or Mac), your DJ controller (Rmx, 4Mx...), your software versions (which version of VirtualDJ).

    You should be able to
    1 - play your DJ software on the audio interface built in your Hercules DJ controller,
    2 - play Maschine software on the sound board built-in your computer,
    3 - connect the line output of your computer to a line input on your Hercules DJ controller (via a 1/8" stereo jack to dual RCA cable)
    4 - and play your Maschine streaming inside your DJ software as an additional deck.

    Hello,

    In my opinion, you have 2 big limits in software.
    - Windows Vista: this operating system is slow so it will be difficult to run together 2 real-time software, Maschine + VDJ: with an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU, if you have 4 GB of RAM or more, you should change to Windows 7 64-bit (don't change for Windows 8, Windows 8 is suitable only for tablets, Windows 8 is a mess on computers),
    - VDJ LE : VDJ 6 LE for Mk4 supports only 2 virtual decks, while you would need 3 decks to inject Maschine in the DJ software (2 decks for 2 tracks + 1 deck for Maschine).
