Suggestion for passable PC USB Sound Card under 35 USD?

As I said, I am just starting out. As such, I am looking for something that will allow me to practice at home, but perhaps be used when playing out as well (even if it is only for 1-2 gigs).

I would be using Virtual DJ.

I am still in the stage where I am learning, therefore spending the money that you suggest is not an option as of yet.

I suppose I was not as clear as I should have been in the post.

Thanks.

Yeah, I was thinking I might pull the trigger on the Traktor 2. That way, I can play around with Traktor. It’s more than I wanted to spend, but as Hee suggested, perhaps I can sell it if it does not work for me.

Would you say this will do for me okay? I mean, the Traktor 4 is a bit pricey. And by a bit, I mean a lot.

Thanks for your reply.

Numark DJ I/O which is the best for beginners along with the Traktor Audio 2

Thanks, jalou. I will have to keep that in mind. I like the idea of not having to use drivers.

In the end, I was able to pick up a used Traktor audio 4 used from a fellow DJ for super cheap (almost half my pricepoint). Also, the mixer/controller I ended up buying has a built in soundcard. So I am covered for on the go and in house for now.

That being said, crap happens. Good to have the knowledge for a rainy day. And hope it doesn’t rain…
