I am looking to buy the
"M-Audio StudioPro 3 Audio Powered Monitors" for 99.99$ USD shipped.

To use with Traktor 3... I already bought a M-Audio X-Session pro Mixer

Since my Monitor Speakers are "POWERED" and I cannot use a regular sound card since i need RCA inputs/outputs. Can anyone recommend a good PCI sound card? TO use not only with Traktor but with Ableton Live and Of course that I can RIG my monitor speakers to.

Would the M- Audio Delta 1010lt be Ok? I am open to Any suggestions Ideally I'd like to keep it under $250.00

Thanks!

You can still use your old card if you have one.

If you are eventually going to switch over to a laptop you would not be able to use the PCI card so you would need to buy a different type. A USB sound device could work with almost any computer. Also a firewire device, depending on your computer. Many will work with both Mac & PC.

I use a Echo Indigo DJ (PCMCIA laptop card) and haven't used much else.

People on other forums mention these:

For Firewire, the M-Audio FireWire 410 and Echo Audio AudioFire 2 (also 4, 8, 12 versions)

Many systems available for USB, such as on the high end the new Native Instruments Audio 8 DJ (has 4 stereo outputs).

What are these cables called by the way? Need to pick up a pair for my soundcard but not sure what they r called.

3.5mm (phono?) to RCA (the red and white ones).

There's probably a better term for it, but if you looked at the cable, you can probably easily tell if it's what you want.

1/8" to 1/4" AUDIO i bleieve, i bought mine in radioshack

I'm not sure if these cables have proper names.

3.5mm Mini-Stereo Male to Two RCA Male

thanks guys

Isn't RCA = bad quality.. Wouldnt digital out be better? Many sound cards have that digital out these days (coax or toslink)..
