Generally speaking, you will have to have an output (on your soundcard) for each virtual deck that you have.

You are pretty much just using the computer as the turntables.

With Traktor you will need a soundcard that has 2 (or more) stereo outputs. Such as the Echo Indigo DJ (that's what I use with Traktor 2.5 and 3). Or you could use a USB or firewire soundcard that has 2+ stereo outputs.

Check the official forum to see what cards people are using:

I don't know what you would use with other software like Virtual DJ.

you can use a basic s/c just to try it out.. assign each deck in tracktor to its own channel .. then plug in the left to a channel on your mixer and the right to the other channel on your mixer.. works for me , but its in mono.. i was just messing around .. kinda cool , cause you still cue in your headphones and such..
