Hi RAV,

This is an interesting question. I'm not sure that you can use the Audio 6 as a soundcard for dj'ing, but it is a very competent audio interface. If you can't use it as a soundcard with the S2 for cueing tracks, the Audio 2 is only around $100 so you might be able to buy it as well. I'm pretty interested to hear what others have to say about this.

Originally posted by RAVproductions So I've been doing some research on a better producing setup. I was thinking of going with the AKG K702 headphones and NI Audio 6 as my audio interface. I know that the headphones will need an amplifier, but will the Audio 6 work as a good amp? I also have the Traktor S2, can I use the Audio 6 with that or will I have to get the Audio 2 for DJ-ing? Thanks for any input.

I often use the S4 for spinning, when I'm using it at home, my monitors and system in general is going through a Saffire and I just route 1/4" jacks from the S4 to the Saffire, works good for me. I can't speak about using the Audio 6, but having more than one audio interface has never been a problem for me. Also I use the AKG K701's and I just use the Saffire for them too, I don't use a seperate headphone amp for them. They work fine for me like that.

Thanks for the advice guys. I bought the AKG headphones and Audio 6 and we'll see how it goes. I don't have the money or space for monitors but I do need a good pair of headphones for producing. When it comes to DJ'ing, I don't play often, just for friends sometimes so I don't need to get too serious about it. I've just heard you need a soundcard like the Audio 2 when playing, but I haven't had any problems playing straight from the S2 yet. Thanks again!
