Denon DN MC6000, Traktor Scratch Pro, Audio 4 DJ and Two SL1200s - Help Needed Posted on: 22.06.2013 by Sherri Kroetsch I've just replaced my Pioneer DJM600 with a Denon DN MC6000, hoping to use my Technics to control 2 decks in Tracktor Scratch Pro 2 (I originally had Scratch Duo and upgraded, so only have an Audio 4 DJ soundcard) and use the DN MC6000 to control the other two decks. It seems impossible to set this up correctly as I can get all four decks working in Traktor using the DN MC6000 on it's own or just two decks (the Technics) using the Audio 4 DJ. Has anyone had any success with this, as I'm drawing a complete blank and hoping someone will be able to help work this out. Cheers | |

| Lauretta Ehrhorn 25.06.2013 | Simplest solution other that internal mixing would be to sell the audio 4 and buy and audio 8/10. Problem solved. |
| Cassie Sangermano 25.06.2013 | I need to play around with it some more then... TBH I haven't got the space at the moment to put my turntables anywhere, but it would be nice to know that I could at some point in the future!! |
| Emelina Chillson 25.06.2013 | So far its worked for my mbox, the mc6000, ddj sx, and focusrite 2x2 |
| Cassie Sangermano 25.06.2013 | I have still never got that to work..... |

After many hours, I managed to sort this, once I realised not to plug the outputs from the Audio 4DJ back into the mixer section of the DN MC 6000, after selecting the internal mix mode. Although now it's not possible to listen to the master output or use the split-cue in the headphones. Being a luddite who doesn't like to use the sync function and living in a house share (no really loud noise), the split-cue function was the real selling point of the unit. However it's been fun using just the controller too and dropping a new tune every 16 bars. Does anyone know if I were to get an Audi 8/10 soundcard, if it would be possible to use two timecode vinyl and the jogwheels to mix on four decks and also be able to use the headphone monitoring on the Denon, itself? |

| Iraida Linihan 24.06.2013 | There is always this option to try http://community .djranking s.com/showthr...t=72001&page=3 |
| Cassie Sangermano 24.06.2013 | My apologies, I must have misread the OP. The only thing he can do with the Audio 4 was as you suggested then, just run on internal, main output to the MC6000, use the headphone on the audio 4 for cue output, and use the MC6000 to control all 4 decks. |
| Alphonso Deitchman 24.06.2013 | You can only have a total of 2 decks using the Audio 4 in External mode though. |
| Cassie Sangermano 24.06.2013 | The MC6000 does have full kill eq's in external mixing mode. I would run the turntables into the audio 4, then output each deck from traktor into a separate input on the MC6000. You could still use the MC6000 to control effects and stuff on the decks via midi. |
| Alphonso Deitchman 23.06.2013 | Does the MC6000 mixer have full-kill EQ? Mixing internally gives you more options over EQ and filters, and is the only way to combine DVS with two MIDI decks without buying a new sound card. |
| Jeffrey Akinsanya 23.06.2013 | MC6000 is a standalone mixer as well as controller, i presume you'd wanna mix externally |
| Gaynell Rydberg 23.06.2013 | Oh duh. I thought he wanted to externally mix using the MC6000 but still have control over 2 decks on the controller. |
| Alphonso Deitchman 23.06.2013 | The sound card you use does not affect how many decks you have control over. You can mix 4 decks internally through a single audio output. |
| Gaynell Rydberg 23.06.2013 | If he uses just the Audio 4 doesn't he lose control over 4 decks? He'd only have two decks for the Technics. |
| Alphonso Deitchman 23.06.2013 | Don't aggregate anything. You cannot use the Denon sound card at all. Use Internal mixing mode and connect the 1200s to the Audio 4 as usual. Send "Master Output" from Output A, and "Monitor Output" from Output B, then connect headphones to the front socket of the Audio 4. |
| Gaynell Rydberg 22.06.2013 | I don't know if you can use two sound cards simultaneously? Aggregate them using ASIO I guess. You're gonna have to use the DJ4 for your tables and then the other two from the MC6000. I'm not really sure at what part you're having trouble with. |
