1 turntable? Do you use it as the same time as both the CDJs? If not, then just connect both to the Z2, and use the phono/ln switch to switch between. Run just through the Z2, no need for the extra interface.

As far as I know the CDJ-850 do support midi/hid, so you can just connect them via USB. No aggregator needed. In that case they are just controllers.

Ahh, they forgot to put USB connection on the specification on the website.
