The simpler you expain it the better for me so thanks for the clarification

Thanks Tubby. I think I am finally getting it. Using my external mixer I need 2 outs minimum, and as I want to record from the mixer I will need 2 ins as well to run the mixer back into the computer. This I assuime will enable me to record using the internal record feature of the software.

Coldcut and Dennis Ferrer for example are listed as VDJ users but I think software is a matter of preference as well as functionality My questions are more about what I might need to get things up and running as I am having trouble grasping the hardware requirements Without timecode could I not just use my computer mouse instead of getting a midi controller? So apologies for my confusion but for this functionality: Traktor Pro or VDJ External mixer Recording mixes (will the mixer not need to be rerouted to the the computer through the record out?) No timecode What is the minimum soundcard I would get away with? I don't see how a 1/1 could possibly suffice? thanks again man

Didn't VDJ just win an award for best software though over both Traktor and serato? Price is an issue as well I want to keep using my Ecler Nuo 2 mixer rather then having to buy a midi mixer so is this possible with Traktor Pro and getting the Audio 4 or 3v3n 2 instead of 8? keeping in mind I want to record my mixes Cheers

Trying to get my head around a few very noob digital questions. Have only been using demo versions of various softwares and have narrowed down to 2. Virtual DJ and Traktor Pro. I would like to mix from my existing external mixer and won't be going for timecode vinyls straight away I want to record the mixes as well How many inputs/outputs on a soundcard will i need to set up my Nuo to mix through the software whilst also recording what I am doing? Will a 4/4 suffice such as the Audio 4 or do I need more like the 8? Down the track if I want to use control vinyls will this make a 4/4 card redundant? Finally, is it better to just get a midi mixer, a cheaper soundcard for output to speakers only and will this enable me to mix and record inside the box as well? Appreciate the patience but this digital stuff is relatively new to me
