ruggs Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Hi there haven't posted in here for ages sorry guys :sAnyway the club I play at has a DJM900 and CDJ2000's. With the DJM does the usb part of the mixer work as a TRAKTOR sound card same way a rane mixer is a serato soundcard? I'm running serato at the moment on vinyl and they have an sl4 box there but thought i might try cdjs with traktor one time to try something different.If the DJM does work as a sound card does that mean I only need to download the traktor program as i would serato?thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opticon Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 You will need a license to use traktor on your laptop. Basically download and install the djm 900 tool from pioneer, plug the USB from the 900 into your laptop, use the tool to set the channels etc and use the traktor setup wizard to get it going. You'll still need 2x more USB ports to use the CDJ in HID mode as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggssell Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 hey mate dont know if the djm900 has a built in sound card, but traktor works differently. software is key enabled. so cant just download. the type of software you have traktor pro or traktor scratch also determines whether you can use it as a dvs.EDIT: beaten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruggs Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 Ah ok fair Enof then, guess I'll just stick with turntables and serato lol thanks guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREMM1S Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 You can use the CDJ's in HID mode and use their soundcards which output like you were using usb or cdj to the mixer, just like normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
