Reply to Getting Back in the Mix - Need rec's for VCI100/MacBookPro/Traktor Pro 2

A few years ago (2008) I starting mixing as a hobby, but the last couple years with work etc I have gotten way ouot of practice and my technology is since out of date! I still have my Vestax VCI-100 controller, which I am happy with (although it could use a slight repair for loss of sensitivity in one of the jog platters).

So I used to use the Traktor 3LE software that was bundled with the VCI-100 out of the box. I ran it on my Mac PowerBook G4 with OSX 10.4.11. This laptop still had the bus slot for the Indigo Echo sound card. I am looking to upgrade to a Mac Book Pro with OSX 10.7. Still looking to use my VCI-100 with Traktor Pro 2. I read through the DJTT "Soundcards for Under $220" article and it looks like the NI Audio 2 is pretty similar to the Indigo Echo, and it is bundled with Pro 2 software for a reasonable price. This seems like a no brainer for soundcard choice.

Will I have any compatibility issues with the VCI-100 and the newer laptop and Pro 2 software? Will I need a special MIDI mapping for the controller? Drivers for the sound card? Any advice or insight would be greatle appreciated!! Thanks everyone!!
