About this product
The Native Instruments Traktor Scratch Pro is a DJ performance package that includes the Audio 8 sound card, supporting up to 8 channels and 24-bit/96kHz audio. It offers multiple I/O options including analog RCA, coaxial, and MIDI connections. This tabletop controller is designed for use with Traktor software, providing a complete setup for digital vinyl system (DVS) control.
Our take
The Traktor Scratch Pro package is a classic for DVS users. The Audio 8 interface handles timecode vinyl flawlessly, and the 96kHz sampling rate ensures high-quality audio. I appreciate the multiple I/O options for connecting to mixers. However, it's older technology—USB 1.1 might cause latency issues on modern computers. Also, it's just the soundcard and software; you need turntables and a mixer. At $169 used, it's a good deal for Traktor fans, but newer interfaces offer better compatibility.
