Can I use Motu M4 with traktor pro 3 for 4 decks?

opus11

I recently purchased the MOTU M4.

It has 4 RCA outputs line 1/2 and monitor 3/4

It also has 4 balanced outputs TRS line 1/2 and monitor 3/4

However, it seems I can only use just 2 at a time or I can use the 8 of them and place the output setting as externaal mixer and configure deck A 1/2, deck B 3/4, I don't see a 5/6 and a 7/8. Is it because I haven't connect any cable in it yet? Or def the RCA line and monitor are mirroring the TRS line and monitor outputs?

If I can use only 2 decks with the motu m4 then I failed and I need a different interface :'(

Recording / Playback Channels: 4x4

Yeah, it only has 4 channels: 2 stereo channels. Thus only 2 decks in external mixing mode.

You need 8 channels.

Or you mix in mono :)

I don't know the area around you, but in Germany you can buy used Traktor Audio 10 for ~125 - 200 EUR.

Hey

Thanks for answering!!!

I'm looking for an interface that has native A/D converter. I love MOTU however, it seems the ultralite mk5 cost around 700 dollars 😢

Do you think the SSL 12 is great option to play 4 decks? Or do yo you motu ultralite mk5 is a better option?
