Native Instruments Traktor Audio 6 Scratch A6 DJ USB Audio Interface

RAKTOR AUDIO 6 from Native Instruments is a 6 input, 6 output USB audio interface that has been designed with the digital DJ in mind. The interface provides premium sound quality and extra-loud output, and features high-end Cirrus-Logic AD/DA converters. Completely revised driver architecture ensures low latency for professional use on stage and in the studio. The interface is housed in an extra-robust metal casing.

Up to three stereo sources can be connected simultaneously. The two included phono preamps allow for the connection of two turntables for digitizing a vinyl collection with the highest quality, or recording other external sources. Even with two stereo channels routed to an external DJ mixer, the front stereo input and output is perfectly tailored for DJs who wish to use TRAKTOR effects as send and return FX units on their mixer.

Convenient status LEDs on the upper panel provide instant visual feedback on input and output activity. It is also possible to run the interface via an optional power supply as a "Direct Thru" unit. This allows the soundcard to pass signals from other equipment (turntables, CD players) without being connected to a computer, perfect for permanent club installations.

Auto Detection makes connecting and disconnecting the interface simple, even while there are tracks playing in TRAKTOR. Selecting an interface from the drop down menu in the Setup Wizard assigns inputs and outputs automatically. TRAKTOR detects when the same audio interface is connected via USB and automatically sets up the preferred routing again. When disconnected, TRAKTOR automatically switches back to the internal computer soundcard.
