    No, Serato uses its own hardware.

    I’m not intending to use Serato. I meant Traktor Audio 6 working with Traktor Scratch Pro 2. Because on the site TSP2 comes bundled with Audio 10 while Traktor Scratch Duo 2 is bundled with Audio 6. I have Scratch Pro 2 but do not have an Audio Interface.

    With that said, which mixers would work completely with Traktor Scratch Pro 2?

    If you run Traktor Scratch Pro 2 you have the ability to run 4 tracks at onece.
    In order to do so you will need Audio 10.
    If yo go for Audio 6 you can only run 2 tracks……

    But if you do not have any mixer but the software I recommend a Traktor certified mixer
    Because you will then not need to buy a Traktor audio 6 or 10 hardware!

    If you only need 2 tracks at once the Denon X600 is a good one
    If you want 4 tracks the Denon X1600 or X1700 are booth good

    Also Pioneer DJM2000/900/850 are good but expenscive

    A&H has some as well

    There are others as well but none that I recommend…….

    Well, I roughly want to spend $400 on a mixer. I’ve concluded that a used Behringer DDM4000 is probably my best bet. Since, Mr. Morse mentioned Serato, I’ve been looking into it. I’m just not entirely sure about which to go.

    I can pick up a Scratch Live 1 for roughly $300 or I can get an Audio 6 for $250 which I already have TSP2.

    So with the mixer, SL1, Timecode Vinyls, and new headshells cartridges totals to roughly, $850.

    Where as the mixer, Audio 6, Timecode Vinyls, and new headshells cartridges comes to, $800.

    It’s give or take $50. But SL1 is outdated Audio 6 is the new hotness, at least for me. 😀

    I’m partial to TSP2 more due to the fact of it’s versatility. I haven’t played around too much with Serato so I’m not entirely sure if that’s the best bet for me.

    Your thoughts?

    depends on what style you play and what genre you specialise in…. if you plan on adding alot of midi traktor might be you best bet, but if you wanna use minor midi controlers and do more turbtablist type stuff, you cant beat serato’s GUI and easy of mapping

    I use traktor scratch with an audio 8 and an S2, it works really well. In the reviews i watched traktor comes out on top for vinyl control. I can vouch for it being awesome. With any of the ni timecode capable soundcards you could use an external mixer that suits your style, scratch mixer or whatever. I mentioned the s2 because it really is amazing and the current price is unbeatable
