Ok, so I'm probably gonna take some heat here...

I own an APC40, an Axiom25, A Korg Nanokey2 and a NanoKontrol2.

What set up would you so with these?

I'm willing to run Live or Traktor (or Traktor into live). Best case scenario would be to DJ with the APC, then control various effects/loops with the other controllers (Stutter edits etc...). I don't seem to be able to set it up correctly, always end up with conflict between the controllers etc... Also, I'd like to control my effect separately for each channel, not only on the master. Is it feasible? Do I need a sound card?

Any help/advice about how to achieve the "best" set up with these gears would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks. I meant the wiring/MIDI set up ;-)
I got a template for traktor on the APC40. Then with soundflower and stompy I wanted to add stutter edit or artillery that would be controlled by the nanokey. However, I lose the function of the template when I do that and there must be conflicts between the two controllers because now the APC controls stompy...
SO let me rephrase my question... What do you see would be the best set up with these 4 controllers? What software, VSTs etc... should I run, and how should I get everything working nicely together?

Thanks
