Need help with connecting a 2nd Laptop to Traktor Pro 2

DJSteegs · November 2023

Hi all,, First time caller here-

So I currently have 2 DJ laptops that i use when djing with Traktor Pro 2-

The main Macbook is connected to my Denon DJ Controller- no issues there.

The issue is my 2nd macbook. It is a Mid-2013 so newest OS it can go to is 10.15.

I have been using the Numark DJIO controller to run it to the 3/4 channels on the controller, but that no longer works.

I need to find a new audiocard that can connect to the controller via usb and has rca connection outputs.

Numark said that card has been discontinued as of 4 years ago.

I have Traktor Pro 2 on the "backup" maccbook as well.

I just need a simple way to get audio from said macbook to the rca inputs on the controller that is compatible with Traktor.

Any suggestions??

Greatly appreciated

Maybe a used Traktor a6?

Per Traktor Specs- it says the Macbook has to be running at minimum of OS 11.0.. I can't get my macbook higher than 10.15..

Im looking to see if i can force it on...

I did find a few used ones, and that would have been perfect if it would have worked.

Thanks-

Anyone else have an Audiocard suggestion?

I think that is the minimum requirement for modern/up to date traktor, not for the a6 audio card. Which was released in 2011.

Right on. I needed up finding one and purchased it, but if it doesn’t work, I’ll return it and try the audio 6.

would be nice to have all NI equipment….
