On the description it says:

There’s even a USB port which allows easy connection to a computer and integration of digital media, which can be used to play back music files from a laptop and to record mixes, or used with software as a digital DJ effects unit.
Does this mean I can plug the Xone 42 straight into my mac without a A6 to control Traktor. I dont want to use the mixer for DVS. If this is not possible then is there a mixer that has a built in USB interface which I can run Traktor off of (under

Maybe the Zomo MC 1000 Unit is something for you. Together with any 4 Channel Mixer.

A K2 will give you enough outputs for 2 mixer channels, so you'll need to aggregate it with another K2 or other sound card that has 2 stereo outputs to fill up all the mixer channels.

How many mixer channels do you need?

no i sold that recently when I moved house, just looking for something smaller and cheaper. I wanted to have a setup similar to Richie Hawtin but on a budget

No, the USB connection is designed to be used as a send/return loop and only carries 1 stereo channel each way.

Do you not still have your Xone 4D?
